when will minecraft 360 for xbox one?

Hi Lisha,

Thank you for contacting the forums. Which version of Minecraft are you talking about buy add-ons from? There are 3 separate versions of Minecraft (Minecraft, Minecraft Xbox One Edition and Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition). I would recommend you to buy Xbox 360
add-ons through the Xbox 360 marketplace if you specifically want add-ons on your son's Xbox 360.

Back then when the Xbox One Edition (the Minecraft with the "Xbox One Edition" in the name, not the new "Minecraft" for Xbox One) was released, there was a short time, where you could buy "Minecraft Xbox One Edition" for a reduced price, if you owned the
original Xbox 360 Minecraft digitally.

Xbox 360 Minecraft and Xbox One Edition Minecraft are two different things. Like having a vinyl record of a music album and then having to buy a CD of the same album. Or having a DVD of a movie, and having to pay for the BluRay version of the movie.

However, the Xbox One Edition can't be bought nowadays anymore. Have you had the Xbox One Edition digitally, you would get the "Minecraft" (without the "Xbox One Edition" in the name) for free.

You can however transfer your Xbox 360 worlds to the Xbox One, if you somehow got hold of the "Xbox One Edition" before it was replaced by the new "Minecraft".

To do that, start your Xbox 360 Minecraft and make sure it's on the latest version. Then use the menu entry to upload your world to the online cloud.

Now start up Minecraft Xbox One Edition and import your world.

With your world in the Xbox One Edition, you can then start the "new" Minecraft on the Xbox One, and import your world from the Xbox One Edition to the new Minecraft.

Do you do this on xbox 360?.log into Minecraft on the 360, click Play, select the world I want, click Y, select the option to upload to the transfer slot, and then click OK when the progress bar finishes.
log into Minecraft the xbox one edition and download from there not the better together minecraft which is just called minecraft.

Hope this helps

The Xbox 360 version of Minecraft is not backwards compatible on the Xbox One.

If you had owned Minecraft 360 digitally, you could have had the benefit of getting the "Xbox One Edition" at a reduced price, and if you owned the Xbox One Edition, you could then get the "Minecraft" without "Xbox One Edition" on the Xbox One for free.

However, these offers have all now expired, and the only way to get Minecraft on your Xbox One is to buy the game again.

Be aware: You can't import your Xbox 360 worlds in the newer Xbox One Minecraft!

If getting your Xbox 360 world over is important for you, you need to find someone with "Minecraft Xbox One Edition" and import it to that game first. Then import that world into "Minecraft" on the Xbox One.

If the console is stuck updating, try to turn off the console, and hold the Bind button (the small button next to the USB ports on newer Xbox 360 consoles, or the small button next to the Memory Unit slots on older 360 consoles), and keep that button held
down when you power up the console.

As for your Minecraft world:

If you are still able to somehow boot the console, and copy the savegame over to an USB drive, you can go to a working Xbox 360 that can connect online, and load your world there.

Then, with an updated Xbox 360 Minecraft, move your world to the cloud.

Now comes the hard part: Find someone with a "Minecraft Xbox One Edition" (not the newer Xbox One "Minecraft" without the "Xbox One Edition").

You can then download your world into that "Minecraft Xbox One Edition", and then this world can be imported into "Minecraft".
