The developers were aiming for late May 2013, but the release date is still unknown. -Mojang has said that it will be released sometime in June. We might get a new launcher and Snapshot 13w24a Was released June 13.
Minecraft should work none the less in May of 2013, try hitting "Options" on the launcher before logging in. Then hit "force update" and it should fix some to most of your issues.
1.6 was released on the 1st of July 2013.

It was most likely to come out on May 29, but since that past try the online version of Minecraft, update Java to Java 6 ( the minecraft launcher will be updating), update possibly to the latest "snapshot (13w series)", or it will most likely come out sometime by the middle of June or early July 2013, based on when the updates are coming out. All I can say is be patient. Minecraft 1.6.0 will be a huge update.
Minecraft came out in 2011 for the PC, Mac, Android, and iOS systems. It came out on Xbox Live in 2012 and on a disc for Xbox in 2013. When the Xbox One is released, Minecraft will be released for play on it.
