Tweet from 4J "We're now working on an update for all Minecraft console editions to move up to the equivalent of Java 1.6.4 version.
It may take some time!" - gashtron
It may take some time!" - gashtron
DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS?!?!?!?!?
Soon we will have horses, the Wither, bats, witches, and a bunch of other awesome things. This update will happen soon but don't expect it in a month or so because this is what 4jstudios said to a comment that asked the same question you are asking.
This obviously means it may be a while. I will have more information regarding this soon. THERE IS HOPE FOR US CONSOLE EDITIONERS!!!
