MS bought Minecraft yes, not the Xbox division they are two completely different lines of business. They are going to use Minecraft to build mobile and they know by making this IP exclusive they greatly cut the amount of money the IP can generate. If they are going to continue to support Apple and Android they will continue to support Sony! Why you ask, well MS wants Mobile the Xbox division is not core. MS could give themselves timed exclusive content or exclusive content but they know by making the IP exclusive they kill the money making potential of the IP. So until anything is said Minecraft will remain Multiplatform.
Besides, Minecraft is not really a console selling IP, I have never herd of anyone buying console X because it has minecraft!! That be crazy since the game can run on mobile (cheaper to get into) and a rather low end PC (also cheaper to get into).
