Minecraft Xbox One's eight player multiplayer will grow after launch

4.4
According to Microsoft's Roger Carpenter, the game will support eight player multiplayer at launch, but 4J Studios plans to raise the headcount via downloadable updates.

Here's the Tweet in question.
#minecraftxbox1 will be 8 player at release but we will continue working to allow more players in a future update!

Minecraft Xbox One is slated to release in August. There's no word of an exact date, but it sounds like the developers are narrowing it down.

We can see the light at the end of the tunnel!
#MinecraftXbox1 #MinecraftPS4 #MinecraftPSVita

A Resize World option is also in the works for post-launch, allowing Xbox 360 players to import and expand their existing worlds.

More players is always good, but I think they need to get onto adding mods. That's what I really want :)

Having more players would be good in my opinion, I would prefer it to build things more quickly with the help of freinds.
That is if they are not spawning chickens (Creative mode -_-)!

RageCreation Wow, sounds like they don't give a shieet about dedicated servers. Worthless.


Minecraft dedicated servers cost money. Plus you don't really need it with the xb1 cloud.

I would love to have more people in one game. Gets boring when there's a low amount of people.

That is because no one can afford the newer consoles. They are so expensive!
