Minecraft PS3-PS4 world transfers enabled

4.7
PS3 Minecraft players can now upload their saved worlds to PS4, 4J Studios announced on Wednesday.

The PS4 version released in early September after a slight delay from the certification process. Unlike the Xbox 360 and Xbox One versions, it released without the ability for users to transfer their saved worlds from previous-gen to current-gen.

4J Studios handled console porting duties for the popular procedurally generated open-world game. Both PS3 and Xbox 360 Minecraft owners were offered a reduced price for purchasing PS4 or Xbox One counterparts.

Users can transfer their worlds by navigating to the saves list on the PS3 version, selecting the desired world, and pressing R1 to bring up Save Options.

Minecraft developer Mojang announced earlier this week that it would be purchased by Microsoft for $2.5 billion.

Xbox boss Phil Spencer confirmed that the company will continue to support all of Minecraft's currently released versions.

That's cool that you can do that on the PS3 and the PS4, I hope they add this to the Xbox One as it would be a cool addition to the game for xbox players.

Sweet! I've got a great world with my friend to transfer!

Shame we can't do that on the Xbox One. Lucky Sony.

This should have been obvious once Xbox users were told that they could transfer their worlds to their Xbox One. It would be unfair if all PS4 users had to start from scratch again on Minecraft.

No you will only be able to transfer the worlds you made from PS3 to PS4.
