Mojang's world-building hit continues selling on new platform

Minecraft PS3 sells one million copies

As part of Mojang’s announcement, the developer/publisher offered that the hot start "has to be some kind of record on PSN". Though that’s not yet official.

The indie hit easily achieved the milestone in what would have typically been adverse circumstances. The version arrived late in the holiday season (a week before Christmas), and long after the game’s release on competing platforms.
