    Cannot play multiplayer because of how your Microsoft Account is set up- on Minescraft on PS5


    We are getting this message : Cannot play multiplayer because of how your Microsoft Account is set up.... Please ensure your online safety settings allow Multiplayer...etc. My son is trying to play online with multiplayer.

    My son is playing Minecraft on PS5, NOT XBOX. I have followed the instructions on the aka.ms/MCMultiplayerHelp website and I still cannot find the online safety settings for my son- it says how to change it with XBOX, but not PS5. I am his parent and have him in my MS family account and tried finding where to change the Multiplayer in MY account and HIS.

    I have also looked on the SONY account on his screenname to see if there were any multiplayer settings.

    I cannot find where to change this setting, please help!!

    :)

    Hi Levan_C. My name is Kyle and I'm an independent advisor.

    Minecraft runs through Xbox Network services, even on PlayStation, so you have to setup the Microsoft account/Xbox profile correctly in order to access multiplayer modes. This is not configured through PlayStation or the Sony account; as stated in the error, it's because of how the Microsoft account is set up.

    Follow the steps on aka.ms/MCMultiplayerHelp to ensure multiplayer is allowed:

    Go to http://account.xbox.com/ and log in with your parental account. Click on Profile from the menu across the top. On your profile page, click on Privacy Settings .

    On this page, you should see your name and the Microsoft Gamertag of your child. Click on their name/picture.

    Click on Xbox One/Windows 10 Online Safety right below the player names/profiles. If you want them to play with other people in general, you will need the multiplayer permission set to 'Allow.'   You will see "You can play with people outside of Xbox Live" - this needs to be set to “Allow” 

    Let me know if this helps, and please reach back if you have any questions.

    Thanks,
    Kyle

    Cannot play online multiplayer because of how your Microsoft Account is set up - PS5

    Thank you for contact us! I'm Anderson, an Independent Consultant and a Microsoft user like you.

    good evening

    It is possible that the multiplayer feature for the game on PS5 is blocked due to parental controls on your Microsoft account. To resolve this issue, you can check the parental controls settings on your Microsoft account and ensure that online multiplayer is allowed for the game. Additionally, you can try logging out of your Microsoft account on the PS5, restarting the console, and then logging back in to see if that resolves the issue.

    it is possible that it is the privacy settings.

    To change the privacy settings your account must be an adult account, otherwise you will not have access.

    see it in your privacy settings:

    if your account is for a child, you need an adult account to link your account and manage your privacy settings
