Minecraft has had a long journey. What started as a simple, early access PC title has now become a multiplatform mammoth with enough dedicated fans to start an army. Mojang’s creation is one of the biggest, most recognizable games to release in recent memory, but it’s really only just begun its expansion plans.
The next step? Lead producer at Microsoft Roger Carpenter says is the game hitting next-generation consoles.
"Nothing to share at the moment [on the Xbox One version]," he told OXM in a recent interview. "But hopefully it won't be long before we'll be talking about Minecraft: Xbox One Edition in earnest. There are lots of cool things being worked on, we've been paying attention to what the community has been asking for…"
What fans really seem to be asking for is new information on the Skyrim mash-up that was recently announced. There are no new crazy screens of blocky dragons or pixilated armor, but Carpenter did confirm that there will be many other interesting projects like this in the future.
"We’ve been discussing quite a few ideas for future mash-ups,” he continued. “The aim is that they're special creations – we're not going to do loads of them. The hope is that they provide players with something visually unique for them to enjoy their slice of Minecraft with."
Look to hear more about Minecraft on Xbox One, PS4, and mashed up with other games in the near future.
