Markus Persson, the man behind Minecraft, commonly known as Notch, has today revealed that Mojang was so pleased with the success of the Minecraft Beta 1.8 Pre-release that they are looking into doing it again.
Notch revealed the news of the social networking site Twitter by commenting, “If we don’t feel comfortable doing a proper release, we’ll do another ‘leak’.”
Would you try out another pre-release after the game crashes and bugs experienced in the 1.8 pre-release? Comment below.

September 22, 2011 at 2:13 PMI think its a good idea to have a pre release before its available to everyone. This way people who play the game can test it out find bugs and let Notch know about them to be fixed which speeds up the actual release.
