Mojang is at it again with the announcement that Minecraft may be expanding to one or both of the current PlayStation systems.

Developer Mojang had been locked into an exclusivity contract with Xbox, but Mojang’s Jens Bergensten, Lead Designer of Minecraft, says that once the contract is up, avenues will be explored for expansion to PlayStation platforms. He also adds that the possibility of a Wii U expansion is “very unlikely.”

If Minecraft came to Vita, I would die a happy man!

Put it on Vita and those quadrupled unit sales from Japan will come over to NA. :P Mojang puts it on any PS system and everybody wins. I also find it funny that they're willing to gamble on putting Minecraft on Ouya and not Wii U.

I already play it on Xbox but it would be great for it on ps3 so my bro doesn't have to wine to play

Great news. Looking forward to it (if Minecraft does arrive on the PS3).

Of course, they'll expand when they can. Leaving copious amounts of scrilla on the virtual table.

Minecraft on Vita? Dear Lord, I would buy that!
by dbiddle87 Tuesday, March 05, 2013 at 10:38 PM

I will get it on the vita the day it comes out.

What? I would assume a Wii U expansion would be awesome with the touch screen controls and all.

Sweet, that's some good news
by Captain Squirrel Wednesday, March 06, 2013 at 08:09 AM

That would be awesome. I had no idea that they were in an exclusive contract with Microsoft, but it does make sense, considering how popular the game is. But if it does come to PS3, I'll buy it day 1.

It'd be a perfect fit for the gamepad.

Minecraft is such a simple yet creative concept. Nonetheless I could not care less that it is coming to the PS3 because while others may have time to invest hundreds of hours into it, the little free time I have with games I would rather spend with exciting games, storytelling games or even brain tugging games. Personal preference, I'm happy with all of Mojangs success and I wish them the best.

Oh yes!!! I've been waiting for this!!!
by darksigner22 Wednesday, March 06, 2013 at 02:14 PM

If it comes out for the Playstation consoles, this will help boost my choice to get one :) ofc it will be a ps3
by Gary42 Wednesday, March 06, 2013 at 02:53 PM

Minecraft hasnt really been fun since Beta 0.7
by ttgpofficial Wednesday, March 06, 2013 at 05:16 PM

Well, a little too late in my opinion...
by LegendofTingle Wednesday, March 06, 2013 at 09:05 PM

Yay! I'd love minecraft on the ps3!
by TheCoolestCuban Thursday, March 07, 2013 at 12:13 PM

I can't wait to get my gaming PC so that I can play Minecraft the way it was meant to be played!
by austint30 Friday, March 08, 2013 at 08:06 PM

PS VITA BABY!!!
by wickemic Monday, March 18, 2013 at 12:08 PM

It will most likely come to Playstation - more money.
