Not infinite world sizes, but "a lot bigger than 360"

I guess I should have expected that. 4J specified it was due to the save file size limit on the consoles. Link to the

Twitter feed.

minecraft 360 saves coming over to xbox one

[quote user="Galactic Geek"]Here's a question: Considering the limited world size of the X360 Edition and the improved world size of the XOne Edition, will our old worlds that are carried over into next-gen be expanded in size or stay the same size as they
were on the X360?[/quote]Expanded world sizes are planned for the Pocket Edition and they've said that the Pocket Edition worlds will be upgradeable to infinite size. You'd think they could do the same for 360/PS3. No word on adding new "stuff" to a world,
though.

Maps will be a problem. Maps in the PC version function quite a bit differently than the maps in the 360 version, though they're less necessary as one can hit a button and get the coordinates one is at any time on the PC version.

Couple of new Minecraft screens

The differences include:

1) bigger worlds about 36x BIGGER than the 360 version and can change the size of the world from normal, medium, or large as seen in E3 2014 2) Bigger multiplayer (numbers not specified) 3) Bigger drawing distances than the 360 4) 360 owners of the game
get a discount, how cool is that 5) can transfer worlds we have from 360 over to 1.

I read it's going to be 36 times the size of the 360 version.

That's crazy. I can't wait. Well, I can... because I've been waiting since November for this game to come out already.

So why is games like skyrim can have same size worlds as pc? And I'd say skyrim is a lot bigger than any Xbox minecraft world
