Minecraft is a game based on limitless creativity and building in a three dimensional sandbox world.
The infinite possibilities in “Minecraft” just got bigger as Minecraft on Xbox 360 (Xbox LIVE Arcade) features an innovative new crafting interface, natural controller movements and interaction through multiplayer gameplay on Xbox Live – all from the comfort of your living room.
The new crafting interface in “Minecraft” on Xbox 360 delivers a completely new way to build “Minecraft” worlds where your imagination is the only limit. A streamlined interface opens at the press of a button, and players can choose from several categories of items to create. “Minecraft” on Xbox 360 explains what each object is, what it does and what is required for building so players new to the world of “Minecraft” can get into the action right away. “Minecraft” on Xbox 360 removes the barriers between you and your creativity!
Fire up your Xbox, load up Minecraft, then throw a freshly-baked cake at your television! It’s the most appropriate way to celebrate the birth of Minecraft on Xbox. Its three years old! If “Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition” were a human it would be gaining independence and learning how to use zippers.
To celebrate this monumental occasion we’re giving the 20 million players on Xbox 360 and Xbox One a heap of colorful skins. From today until May 17, three packs will be available to download for free. There’s a brand-new bundle featuring veteran Mojangstas and a few cheeky extras, our 2nd Birthday Skin Pack from last year, and our 1st Skin Pack from Minecraft’s first birthday.
Veteran 360 players might already have the older birthday packs, but this is the first time they've been available on Xbox One. Be sure to snap them up, early(ish) adopters!
