Microsoft hasn’t specified which ones.
Despite coming out in May 2012, the Xbox 360 of version is still one of the best-selling console games every month. Minecraft itself is a phenomenon. It made $326 million in revenue in 2013 alone with computer (PC, Mac, and Linux), console (Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3), and mobile (Android and iOS) versions bringing in tons of cash. Adding new platforms like the Xbox One will help keep that momentum alive, but it’s also great for Microsoft to have such a guaranteed hit coming to its newest system.
