    1. All sale figures for the all platforms lists are taken from the other lists unless otherwise noted.
    2. 1 2 Although Minecraft was first publicly available on 17 May 2009,[3] and the 1.0 version on 18 November 2011, the first version of Minecraft which required a paid account was first publicly available on 23 December 2009,[4] therefore it started accumulating sales on that year.
    3. Number may include Reaper of Souls sales.
    4. Subscribers are not the same as sales; many Asian markets use a different business model that does not involve retail copies. As such subscriber figures do not equate to sales figures.
