More DLC Skins Revealed for Minecraft 360 – Gears and Fable Make Appearance

More DLC Skins Revealed for Minecraft 360 – Gears and Fable Make Appearance

While it seems that the Xbox edition of Minecraft is always playing catch up, I can’t help but get just as exited over every update and every little bit of new content added as I did when playing on the PC. Owners of Minecraft 360 (as I like to refer to it as) are awaiting the release of the 1.7.3 update which will bring about shears, pistons and many bug fixes among other things.

Most notably though will be the option to customise the skin of your character thanks to a handy skin DLC pack planned for release along side the update. The price of the pack has not yet been stated but we do know that it will contain 40 skins including a King, a Creeper, Splosion Man, Covenant Grunt and Trials Man.

Five more skins have also recently been unveiled. The newcomers include: Ms Splosion Man, Clayton Carmine (Gears of War), Banjo (Banjo and Kazooie), Jack of Blades (Fable) and a prisoner.

The event was to mark the official release of Minecraft and to show some of the plans for the future of Minecraft and other games Notch has been working on. To date 4.1 million people have already bought Minecraft and many changes have been made for the ‘final’ version. I say ‘final’ because its unlikely that no more improvements or updates will ever be made to what is possibly the most anticipated indie game ever.

BdoubleO talks about life and all things Minecraft

The 11th of November 2011 is a big day for the gaming community. No I’m not talking about Skyrim but instead a game which in my eyes is just as big. At the time of writing it has already sold over 3.5 million digital copies before even leaving Beta and over 14.5 million people have signed up to the official website and these numbers are increasing all the time. Of course I’m talking about Minecraft.
