Minecraft Xbox 360 Saves Will Transfer To Xbox One
Minecraft is a bona fide phenomenon, and although it may not seem like a big slice of players, those of you looking to continue playing the 360 Edition of the game on an Xbox One will be relieved to hear your save will transfer.
Xbox head Phil Spencer recently tweeted:

The PlayStation 3 and 4 editions are also planning to allow a transferable save. Whether this will happen for the Vita version is still to be determined.
No release dates have been set for the new-gen or Vita versions of Minecraft.
Our Take:
Backwards compatibility may not exist between the generations, but things like this are better than nothing.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
