Hi, my son is having the same issue being unable to join his friend’s minecraft realm when invited. The privacy settings are already set to allow multiplayer, join clubs etc and I renewed the Xbox live gold subscription.

I’d be so grateful for some help please?!

Hello, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

If it asks you for a game pass to join your friends in Minecraft, it may be because the kingdom owner has changed the kingdom's privacy settings. If the realm owner has set the privacy settings to “Friends Only,” only players who have an Xbox Game Pass membership will be able to join the realm.

If you're not sure if the kingdom owner has changed their privacy settings, you can ask them directly. If you don't have an Xbox Game Pass membership and want to join the realm, you'll need to purchase a membership or ask the realm owner to change your privacy settings.

I hope this helps.

Best regards.

Hello curabruh,

Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are unable to join Minecraft Realms due to your account's privacy and online safety settings. You may need to change the

privacy and online safety settings online. Are you playing the game on a Xbox One? Is your account a child account? If your account is a child account, you will need to have the parent account adjust the account's security settings. The article we provided
explains how to complete this process. Be sure to let us know the results!
