Hello everyone! As many of you already know, Minecraft: PlayStation 4 Edition has been available from PlayStation Store since the beginning of the month. Following the successful launch, we are pleased to announce the retail disc version will be available starting on October 7th.

For those looking for the ultimate Minecraft experience, the PS4 Edition features worlds 36 times bigger than the ones you might be used to on the PS3 system. Existing players are able to import PS3 saves to the PS4 Edition, allowing them to continue work on their immense structure or delve even deeper towards the Nether.

Also, to ensure you have the best Minecraft experience possible on the PS4, be on the lookout for a day 1 patch available on October 7th.

In other Minecraft related news, for those waiting for the PS Vita Edition, we’ll have more information on this in a few weeks and will include all the proper info on how the cross-buy works between the PS3 and PS Vita Editions.

Thanks for reading and see you in the world of Minecraft PS4!
