  1. Can't create multiplayer enabled games of Minecraft anymore


    Why isn't my Xbox allowing me to create or join multiplayer games in Minecraft? It either tells me to join Gamepass, or tells me to change my account settings to allow multiplayer. I'm not joining Gamepass because I never had to to join LAN games with two accounts on mobile and one on PC (neither of which need a subscription to play a game that they already paid for) until just the last update, and all of my settings are set to allow multiplayer. It's not even like I can't play other stuff online; Fall Guys, War Thunder, etc, all still let me play online, but for some reason Minecraft doesn't. I don't care about Realms or dedicated servers, I literally just want to play online with my wife and kids. Anyone ever deal with this?

    :)

    pls let us play online for free

    Yeah it would be awesome to enable multiplayer on some games without the need to have Xbox Live

    Like Fortnite for instance. So many young gamers on there who can't afford the subscriptions. Even Minecraft would be awesome as a free multiplayer zone
