Sweet. Would you know by any chance if I were to get Minecraft on PS4 via the upgrade method, do I get the PS4 & Vita versions, every version or just the PS4 version?

Just craft a new map? 8 paper 1 compass?
I haven't started playing yet but that was how it was on the E3 stream when they started a new large map on the XBox One version. It seems like a lot of maps to keep track of but I guess that's what they went with.
Does anyone know what comparable version this is to PC or PS3/360? The trophies mention
and was curious what other new features are in this version. I haven't played much of PC since Sumer 2011 so a lot of changes in even the PS3 were new to me.
So glad to have this game. Just did internet remote play and it works flawlessly! It felt native on the Vita with very little input lag.
This version feels like the definitive console version (As in the version that is on both Xbox One and PS4. Xbox One owners are in for a treat tomorrow!). I am thrilled they are making the Vita version, because it will be great for when I don't have internet. Thank you 4J Studios!
There are even a few bits of DLC not on the PS3 version yet. Oh and I WANT that Doctor Who DLC Xbox is getting!

I would jump in head first if they allowed texture packs on the console versions. Game looks so darn good with a cool texture pack running. My fav is the PureBDCraft pack which gives the game an almost zelda-esque look with the style of the textures.

I could understand before as the added performance hit and RAM usage would be an issue, but the next-gen consoles should be able to handle these packs and still get +60fps performance.
I want everything on the PS4 and would be awesome to have minecraft too.

That looks cool! You know that it does have texture pack capability in it, right? There is a Fantasy texture pack, a Cartoon Texture pack, a Candy Texture pack, a Naturalism and a City pack. 4J has to design them, but they've been releasing in good amounts. The packs may not look like the ones available online, but they really do a good job in my opinion.
THAT is a good sign! I know the world sizes aren't unlimited like PC (had a server I ran with a HUGE map once), but you are saying 5 created paper maps by 5 created paper maps to fully flesh out the world? That I can live with.

Yeah, I hope they make PS4/XB1 exclusive texture and mash-up packs. The natural texture pack looks good on the consoles though so it's not all bad.

That's what I've been told. It's also what I've done, so I hope so!
Yes. That's the cheapest and easiest way to get it. So far all DLC seems to be cross-buy as well.
So does having the PS4 version grant you the future Vita version or do you need to own both PS3/PS4 grant you free Vita copy? Sorry if this has been answered many times
No, having the PS3 version grants you the Vita version. PS4 is considered a whole new game. Vita will be basically be PS3 in the shell of a Vita.
$19.99

I must agree with you her, once you have played Minecraft with mods it is very hard to look back.
What I was reading, I forget which site so I can't source it, is that PS3 has to be patched to allow the exporting. 4J/Mojang have created a cloud to host the files on and then you import. It uses your PSN ID. Last I heard is 4J is working on the update to the PS3 version.
Well, that sucks. That's kinda what I was thinking, but couldn't find anything to clear that up. Thanks.

Hmm, wonder if a Destiny theme will be forthcoming.
This won't show up as $5 to me. :/
I have the save files from the PS3 version in my PS+ storage and the trophy list is synced to my account. Yet when I go to add it to my cart and checkout it stays at 19.99.
Any help?

Is the PS4 version the same as the PS3/360 version as far as features? I mean like is it any closer to PC.

Technically the cheapest way would be to rent the PS3 version, play it online. Get Vita version free and PS4 version for $5 bucks.
Just the PS4 version. But supposedly, if it says you have the PS3 version (disc or digital), you get the Vita version for free when it comes out.

What? Why would it be?

No idea, just a crazy guess of mine. There are other themes from games so I thought that Destiny may have a chance (probably 0.001%)

Anyone making a trophy world yet? I'm terrible at this game and don't have a ghost of a chance at actually getting them the hard way.

Play the tutorial, you'll get a lot from that alone.

"hello?" "this is vagina"
Any compromises to performance or visuals in splitscreen?
That's what I'm trying to do, rented the PS3 version after enjoying the PS4 trial. PS4 version still shows as $19.99 right now. Anyone had any luck with that?

Sounds like its hit and miss. I only rented it, but that was a while back. Maybe there was a cutoff date and they never said anything? Try playing an online game and getting trophy? They just say it has to associated with your account.
Didn't play an online game, but definitely got a couple trophies and the list is synced to my account and everything, as well as the saves being in the cloud.
Still shows $20 for me as well.

Damn it...I had popped it in on the 30th.

Ah that makes sense.
I wish there was some way I could get the discount since I had the game on 360.
Crap, oh well.
No one made a PSA announcement on GAF? Where was our savior Wario64??? T_T

Huh. I bought the ps3 digital version today, loaded it up so that a save file would be created, then bought it on ps4 for $5...

Same, I went from PC to PS3 just yesterday. Got it for $5 bucks as well for the PS4 just now.

- PS3/Vita is cross buy for $20
- PS4 version is a $5 upgrade on top of PS3/Vita version.
So buy PS3/Vita version for $20 first. Then upgrade to PS4. It doesnt work the other way.
I was worse. I bought the PS3 version yesterday but i didn't even download it and still i could upgrade today for 5 dlls.

A few of my friends have play history and achievements on the 360 version from playing on their accounts at my house. Hopefully they get the discount still! They wouldnt buy at $20 but maybe at $5.

Skyrim, mass effect (and halo) have skin and texture packs for about £3 each, destiny seems big enough to have one of it's own, who knows.

I'm assuming the digital version doesn't have the limitation. I rented the PS3 version today, but no discount on the PS4 version. Oh well, worth giving it a shot.

So I rented it, thinking I could get to the upgrade that way, I see that doesn't work now...fair enough.
But if I buy the digital version right now for PS3, the $5 PS4 offer will still pop up?

Once your account owns the PS3 version, in the PS4 store it shows up as $4.99 to buy Minecraft.

New to Minecraft here and I've got a quick question, sorry if it's already been asked. When creating a world, it gives the option for other texture packs, such as Fantasy. But it's only a trial so you can't save. But when I check the store to try and buy it, there's nothing there.
So, do we know when it will be available? and if I create a world and build upon it but later purchase the Fantasy texture pack, will I be able to apply it to my current world? or will it only be available when creating a new world.
Thanks.
Edit: Scratch all of this, nothing was showing up in the store from the game menu, but actually going to the PS store I see that everything is available.
