Meanwhile, Telltale's narrative-driven adaption Minecraft: Story Mode has also been confirmed for Nintendo Switch.

In September 2014, Minecraft was purchased by Microsoft, paying a whopping $2.5 billion to Minecraft's original developer Mojang.

After the purchase, the Minecraft game franchise has become one of the top performers on Microsoft's gaming division. In fact, Microsoft admits that Minecraft was a good buy since the game was bringing in money as it consistently boosted the company's revenues.
