Thank you PCGamesN for providing us with this information
My daughter will be happy, she has a serious addiction to Minecraft
If she plays it on PC, she might as well stick with the current one if this new one doesn’t support modding or dedicated servers.
Yeah she is a PC user, she has a ton of mods, will be waiting for more info on this. I really can’t see MS giving much away for free.
