'The Simpsons' are heading to 'Minecraft' on Xbox, too

Pairing a popular game with a popular television show seems like a sure winner. Doctor Who arrived on Minecraft for Xbox 360 back in August, and next month, another well-liked TV franchise will make a cameo in the game. The Simpsons pack will arrive in late February for both the Xbox 360 and Xbox One versions of the title (perhaps the "Simcraft" intro should've been a clue). Skins of the Simpson family, along with 19 other characters from Springfield Elementary, will be available as a downloadable add-on for $1.99. Of course, the Simpson's fictional home and grade school have already been constructed in the game, so tossing in official characters will be a welcome addition. No word on an exact arrival date, but at least you can get a head start on a block version of Krustyland.
