93. A Beautiful Day in Minecraft

Mojang’s Minecraft for the PC – which includes the Windows, Linux and Mac OS versions – has sold 14 million copies according to a new tweet by creator Markus “Notch” Persson who is currently “Celebrating by having no idea how to play Lego marvel on ps4!”

One of the best selling titles of 2013 according to the NPD, Minecraft places consistently in the top 10 in the UK with the Xbox 360 Edition – which at last count sold 10 million copies worldwide – and total lifetime sales have hit about 35 million since the game’s release. Considering its humble indie origins, that’s not bad at all. Minecraft has also helped inspire several other hit sandbox titles like Terraria.

Mojang is currently working on bringing Minecraft to the Xbox One and PlayStation 4, along with regular content updates for currently released versions. Have you hopped aboard the griefing train yet? If so, let us know your thoughts about Minecraft in the comments below.
