After going through some tests , it appears Minecraft will be making its way to PlayStation 3 tomorrow (December 17).
Posted on PlayStation.Blog , Owen Hill of Mojang announced that Minecraft will be available to download via the PlayStation Network for PS3, and assured that a PlayStation 4 and Vita version are in the works, though they don’t have a release date as of yet.
Generously, Hill also answered a few frequently asked questions about the PS3 version that have built up over the past few months, which can be found verbatim below.
