Are you feeling a bit left because of our recent PC/Mac and Pocket / Windows 10 updates, console kids? Aww. There's no need to be sad. Christmas is just around the corner. And (if you've been well-behaved) Santa might bring you a tangerine or something.

Also… we've just released a big update for all console editions of Minecraft!1!

This one features a wide range of Minecraft goodness from new mobs to fresh status effects.
