Let’s face facts for a minute: you’re probably still playing Minecraft on your Xbox 360 more than anything on the Xbox One that’s sitting under your flat-screen. That’s perfectly fine! To sway you into spending more time with Microsoft’s new console, however, Redmond has a clever plan in mind. When the game releases this Friday, you’ll get a hefty 75 percent discount off the $20 purchase price. That’s right, Minecraft: Xbox One Edition could cost you as little as $5. You simply need to own and have played the previous version and have it tied to your Xbox Live account, according to Xbox Wire. Pretty rad, yeah? Just when you’d finally recovered from the news that importing saved worlds from the previous hardware was a thing, boom, this hits like a creep in the night. It’s a bit later than earlier promised, sure, but unlike the PlayStation 4 and PS Vita versions, at least there’s a firm date in sight. Lady geeks and gentlenerds, ready your pick-axes.
