Minecraft PC surpasses 14 million sold

4.1
The original PC version of Minecraft has sold 14 million worldwide, a figure that takes the game's total sales past the 35 million mark, at the very least. That 35 million figure is based on numbers previously given by Mojang for other platforms, including the 10 mill for the mobile Pocket Edition - that was back in May 2013. In truth, the total sales are probably a million or two more.

Bearing in mind Mojang still has lucrative PS4 and Xbox One versions in the works, we can only imagine creator Markus 'Notch' Persson has his own Scrooge McDuck-style money bin towering over the hills of deepest Sweden, with a giant, golden beard emblazoned on the front. If he doesn't, he is truly wasting his life.

I have this game on PC, Xbox 360, and iOS and I really enjoy all versions of the game. It's a lot more fun when I play with my friends, though, building houses, taking on abandoned mineshafts and such.

Maybe Mojang will donate some of his millions to his Swedish friends over at EA, I hear they could do with it.

Lia I miss playing Minecraft in its early Alpha stages to the Beta. I haven't really enjoyed playing it since then.


I know what you mean, I miss playing it back in like beta 1.7, and beta 1.8, and so on. After the game passed beta stages, it hasn't felt the same since then.

This is crazy. Even though it is not that surprising.
