UPDATE Gamescom 2013: Minecraft coming to PlayStation 4 at launch.

4.6
Minecraft is coming to the PlayStation 4 at launch, Sony announced during its Gamescom press conference today.

Minecraft launched on PC in 2011 as an early access alpha, and from there it gained unprecedented, worldwide sales and mainstream acclaim. It's since launched on Android, iOS and Xbox 360 – during its E3 press conference, Microsoft announced Minecraft for Xbox One. This month Minecraft on XBLA passed 8 million sales.

Update:
Notch has posted on Twitter hinting that Minecraft will also be coming to PS3 and Vita.

More as it comes

I think that this was really needed as currently a fair percentage of the market hasn't be touched. With Minecraft becoming available on the mentioned consoles, expect a large increase in sales within week one.

Are they going to be on the same update as Xbox or is it going to start where xbox first started.

They've ported Minecraft to Xbox and now they plan on doing the same with the PS4. Personally nothing is going to beat the PC version. The consoles are always going to be a few steps behind. Christ, Xbox doesn't have upside down stairs yet.
