Minecraft PC sales top 11 million
Sales of the world building game across all platforms have now surpassed 27 million units.
In May, it was announced that Minecraft Pocket Edition had sold over 10 million copies, while Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition hit six million sales in late March.
A retail version of Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition will be released in the UK this Friday, June 28, while an Xbox One version of Minecraft was announced earlier this month.
Here's what we said in our 9/10 Minecraft: Xbox 360 review: "Whether you're mining, crafting, building, or fighting - either alone, or with friends - there's nothing quite like Minecraft. An accomplished, streamlined port that's a perfect fit for Xbox 360."
Following Minecraft's "freak" success, Persson said in April that he's feeling the pressure of expectation. His next title is a first-person space game called 0x10c.

BDBShadowBoltDashie Not surprising, Minecraft is just a great game on PC or console.
I know right, I never played it on console though. I hope it comes out for PS3/PS4 :)
It is not nearly as good on console. Consoles restrict you too much. PC is just superior in nearly every way.

4J Studios might in the near future. I'm sure if they continue to get a lot of requests and feedback regarding it, they will consider it.
