"Launching exclusively with Game Pass for PC on November 2 2021, the Minecraft PC Bundle brings Minecraft: Java Edition and Minecraft: Bedrock Edition for Windows together in the same launcher," reads the announcement on the Minecraft website. Now that this question has been answered, PC users can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that both Minecraft versions will be available through Xbox Game Pass for PC as part of a package called the Minecraft PC Bundle.
As such, Bedrock is the Minecraft that supports cross-platform play. Bedrock is the newer, multi-platform version of Minecraft, the one on which console versions are built. I see you raising your hand in the back, Minecraft newbie, and you're asking, "What is the difference between Java and Bedrock?" The short answer is, Java is the original Minecraft, which is still supported to this day. During Saturday's Minecraft Live show, it was revealed that both Minecraft's Bedrock and Java Editions would be available as part of Xbox Game Pass for PC. However, that's about to change for Xbox Game Pass users. It's unclear when can regular owners start using this unified method though.Some might take for granted that Minecraft has been around for a decade and can be played on just about any platform. Following November 2, PC subscribers will be able to quickly swap between the versions without hassle. To explain the main difference between the two, Bedrock is where cross-play is available, letting players across PC, consoles and even mobile devices join together for adventuring and building in unified servers, while the PC exclusive Minecraft Java Edition sports extensive mod support and a massive modding community behind it.Īs the two versions are currently available via two different storefronts - Bedrock on Microsoft Store and Java on the Minecraft Launcher - Mojang is bringing the Bedrock Edition to the Minecraft Launcher for the first time. It isn't just the Bedrock version either, as the original Java Edition is also hopping into the gaming subscription at the same time. That's changing soon though, as the studio announced during this year's Minecraft Live presentation that Xbox Game Pass for PC subscribers are also gaining the game starting on November 2. Mojang Studios' behemoth block-based sensation Minecraft has been available on the Xbox Game Pass subscription since March 2019, but only on the Xbox console variant.
