How popular is the mobile version of Minecraft? Minecraft Servers It's pretty dang popular according to Mojang's latest blog post. According Mojang, recently acquired by Microsoft, Minecraft: Pocket Edition is bigger than Texas and 23x hotter than Sun and "more than the entire universe." Mojang also boasts a 30,000,000 statistic if you want to check out the actual statistics. This is the number of times that the pint-sized version has been purchased.
Debuting long before the free-to-play trend was a "thing," Minecraft: Pocket Edition sells for a staggering US$6.99 on both the iOS App Store and Google Play, and has never been the subject of price adjustments, which means the game has earned around $210 million in revenue. This is a lot of cheddar. With its high App Store rank it's likely to keep bringing in the money for a long time.
