    Can't play Minecraft, says I need to buy again


    I haven't played Minecraft in a couple of years but I just downloaded the launcher and logged in with my email and I only get an option to buy the game again. I migrated my account from Mojang to Microsoft in june 2022 as I can see it on my emails.

    Says I need to buy Minecraft again?

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you with your concern.

    Kindly validate the license for the game first, please sign in to this link and check if you can see the game as owned.

    Once confirmed, sign out on the Minecraft launcher and then sign back in, make sure that you're signed in under the correct Microsoft account, Leo.

    Can't play COD Modern Warfare on Xbox series X from disc.

    I'm having the same problem. I can't play my copy either. I wanted to play it again and it says I need to buy it again.

    Bought packs for Minecraft but says I need to buy it again

    Try rebooting the game, and then the console. Could be a temporary glitch if you're using the same account.

    Bought packs for Minecraft but says I need to buy it again

    Hi,

    Go into Games and Apps. - Select Minecraft - Manage Game - In "Ready to Install" check to see if your packs are located there. You could have uninstalled the packs by accident.
