Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition saves will transfer to Xbox One

You’ve spent hundreds of hours building a giant golden toilet in Minecraft on Xbox 360, and you don’t want to abandon all of the hard work you have poured into your masterpiece. Well, Mojang and Microsoft have made sure that won’t happen.

Xbox boss Phil Spencer confirmed this morning that saves from Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition will work with Xbox One version. Microsoft worked directly with Mojang to get that working. This means that players can take along everything they’ve built from the 360 and continue tinkering and adding to it on the newest Xbox. Minecraft, an adventure game that enables players to build Lego-like structures with different kinds of blocks, is phenomenally popular. The 360 version alone has surpassed 12 million in sales. A big part of that success is due to players feeling a strong connection with the things they build. Minecraft: Xbox One Edition is due out this year.
