Minecraft: Xbox Edition gets horses

4J Studios, developer of the console version of Minecraft, has issued a new update for the Xbox Edition of the game that adds horses to the game.

Among a raft of changes and additions that come as part of title update 19 is the arrival of horses - a stable of the PC version - and, of course, horse armour.

There are also witches, bats, donkeys and mules, and a new tutorial world.

The content update is rolling out now for Xbox One and Xbox 360 versions of the game. But there's a hold up on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3 and Vita - 4J said the update was still being tested by Sony. It should be out soon, though.

The changelog in full is over at the Minecraft forum.
