Java Edition 1.0

Minecraft 1.0 is the official release of Minecraft for the computer. It was released during MineCon on the 18th November 2011 by Notch at the keynote address ceremony at 21:54:50 GMT. Jeb confirmed the version number 1.0 in a tweet while also stating that the game would be officially out of Beta. 1.0.0 includes bug fixes from the 1.9 Pre-Releases as well as new sounds and other minor changes. This is the version of Minecraft that is charged at full price (€19.95, £16.95, or $26.76) to new players, but alpha and beta players receive this copy through regular updating. After the release, Notch said in an interview that he was nervous about releasing a full game that would be rated and reviewed. Even though, the game was incredibly well received and was given high ratings by many gaming websites and fan reviews.

Minecraft 1.0 is the official version that The End was released. Before that, Minecraft 1.9 Pre Release 4 was the version that first featured it. You can check out all of the features in The End Here
