Finally, the much-awaited Minecraft PS4, Xbox One release date has already been revealed!

The indie game developer, Mojang, announced last week that the Minecraft PS4, Xbox One release date is set for this August. The official statement from Mojand reads, "Minecraft: Xbox One Edition will be release on Xbox Live Marketplace in August." 

Moreover, the PS4 version of the sandbox game will also be available on August.

As cited on Trusted Reviews, Owen Hill of Mojang stated, Mojang's Owen Hill stated: "Apologies for the delay, but putting Minecraft on new consoles is a serious business. People have been using phrases like 'logistically-speaking,' 'infinite terrain', and 'platform parity' for months now."

In addition to the announcement regarding Minecraft PS4, Xbox One release date, the price of the game has also been revealed. As reported by TIME Magazine, Minecraft PS4, Xbox One editions will cost $20. This is way cheaper than the pricing previously listed by Wal-Mart for Minecraft Xbox One.

The post also noted that new versions of Minecraft will be available for Xbox 360, PS3 and PS Vita. But one of the notable differences of the new console versions from the older gaming systems is that Minecraft for PS4 and Xbox One will have "significantly bigger worlds and a greater draw distance."

According to Mojang, "players with Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition saves will be able to import their worlds to Xbox One." However transferring saves from Xbox One to Xbox 360 is not possible.

 Furthermore, Cross platform is not possible between Xbox 360 and Xbox One, as well as on PS3 and PS4.
