A boxed, retail version of Minecraft for Xbox One is slated to hit shelves on November 18 in the US, Microsoft announced today. In-store, Minecraft: Xbox One Edition is $20.
The digital edition of Minecraft hit Xbox One early in September. Those who own Minecraft on Xbox 360 are able to upgrade to the digital Xbox One version for $5 – to be clear, that trade-up system doesn’t apply to the retail version.
Microsoft purchased Minecraft studio Mojang for $2.5 billion earlier this month, and Minecraft creator Markus “Notch” Persson announced he’d step away from the company to return to his experimental, Ludum Dare roots.
