- drzaiusapelord 12y agoInteresting, I know it was released on PS4 and Xbox One. I imagine it was re-written in C++ or, at least, a non-Java language. Porting from Xbox to PC seems trivial if Mojang wants to replace their Java version. My guess is that there will be a new Windows version with a sane mod system and written in C# or C++ soon as MS's first hand-out to fans. The broken mod system and the performance issues need to be addressed and getting off Java is the best way to do this.
