14 DAY TRIAL // 4J Studios, the developer of the Minecraft console adaptations, has revealed that Minecraft for the PS3 will receive patch 1.03 in the near future, probably by next week, and it has shared the full changelog of the important update.
Minecraft is a true global phenomenon, and last month it was finally released on the PS3 platform, after gracing the Xbox 360 for almost a year and a half.
Unfortunately, as with any big release, there were quite a few problems with the game, prompting developer 4J to allocate extra resources in order to solve them.
Now, patch 1.03 for Minecraft on PS3 is finally getting ready to appear on the Sony console.
4J confirmed on Twitter that the update would appear by next week, although everything depends on Sony's certification process.
