Existing players will be 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.

Hey there Brian Silva. I’m from Australia and just checked on the playstation store and the PS4 version is available but the upgrade option is not? I bought the disc version a month ago. And have signed in with the same PSN account on both consoles. Can you help?
my got cant wait
Hi Sony how many gb is this download gonna be thx
I know the worlds are a lot bigger but will there be any other differences on ps4 compared to ps3. Like more add-ons or mods? I love the game but my poor son loves watching minecraft vids and well they have almost everything on pc and i have to keep telling him “nope son we have the playstation version”. Will the ps4 version evolve to that of the pc capabilities or will ppl be able to mod MC like on PC? I mean this PS4 is a beast. Are we gonna be able to “Unleash the Beast” for MC on PS4? Thx.
Oh thank the powers of Playstation, a solid co op experience!
Hello everyone !
Feel free to add me : Belend024
Visit my PS4 Website for Minecraft, I’m hosting Massive Building Projects and Games : http://www.ps4minecraft.weebly.com
See you all soon !
I’ve downloaded the ps4 version but i can’t upload my savegames to my ps4. How does it work from ps3 to ps4?
Congrats on the release Mojang. Personally I’ll be sticking with the PC version because it’s vastly superior in terms of features. I’ll probably grab the PS4 version when it reaches feature parity, especially considering how big Minecraft 1.8 is.
It would also be really awesome to see shader/HD textures support that you can enable/disable on the PS4 version since it’s as powerful as mid range PCs. Oh well, still an incredible and unique game everyone should check out, but PC version for me.
Hey Brian Silva, i would really like a response, ive been waiting patiently for Minecraft PS4 Edition to come out in the Asia Pacific Region or more specifically, Japan. All i would like to know is the date it will come out for the Asia Pacific Region or Japan. thanks a bunch :)
We are working to get it out in Japan as soon as we can. We will have more information for you soon.
