MineCon, a celebration of everything Minecraft, will be held in Las Vegas on the 18th and 19th of November – which coincides with the launch of the full game.
“For me, MineCon is about celebrating the full release of Minecraft,” creator Markus Persson – more commonly as Notch – told PC Gamer. “I’m really looking forward to getting up on stage and pushing the button to upload the final build.”
The launch of the game doesn’t mean the end of development, however.
“We’ll just go back home and keep working on Minecraft directly after MineCon,” Notch boasts, “but it does represent a huge milestone where the game finally leaves beta, something we’d never been able to do without our fans, so it feels natural to celebrate it with them.”
Minecraft is also on it’s way to Xbox 360, but won’t be a straight port, and a different developer will be taking the reins of the project.
