Mojang's sandbox build-'em-up Minecraft remains a popular choice on the Xbox 360, surpassing 12 million units sold by this month.



"It is quite amazing!" Mojang's Daniel Kaplan stated in response to the latest milestone in sales. "I remember when we started talking about sales numbers that we'd be thrilled to sell 1 million copies. That would have put us in line with Battlefield 1943 and Castle Crashers, which both are great games which is why that was something to aim for. We had never thought of selling 12 million!" gaming



In December 2012, Minecraft sold over 10 million copies. Mojang and development partner 4J Studios will continue to bring up-to-date Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition with new content over the coming months including a Candy Texture Pack due to launch on April 18.
