The PS Vita version of Minecraft has passed through the final phase of testing and will be released next Wednesday in Europe.

However ,the version for the United States is still undergoing checks and 4J studios do not have a date for that release.
It is rather amusing that the first version of Minecraft to be released since Microsoft bought Mojang is for console produced by their fiercest rival.

Hooray! I get my PS4 back from my son. At least until the Youtube app comes out and he starts using it to watch Minecraft videos.

Woop! Funny that the US testing is behind the EU this time, whatever happened to CS: Global Offensiveness?

Bought and Platinumed that game nearly 2 years ago from the US store, didn’t realise that it still hadn’t released here yet. Tits!

I’ve been playing in on my Vita using remote play and it works really well.
Just waiting to hear when we can transfer our PS3 saves to PS4 and Vita now.

You can already transfer saves from PS3 to PS4, but only one at a time.

Nice one, thanks. I get that sorted then.

Is there a discount if you already have the PS3 or PS4 version? I ask as the PS4 version had a discount if you had already bought the PS3 version.

It’s cross buy with ps3 so will be free if you have ps3 version.
