help w/ transferring Minecraft worlds between PS5 n Switch

That is what certain users perform however technically it is not possible, like I said there are workarounds that can work if you look for them at reddit but it is not something I recommend or I will do.

Thanks,
Mauro

i heard u have to use Realms to transfer worlds, is that true?

Hi Ethan_602.

My name is Mauro and am glad to assist you.

There are certain boundaries on how to do certain migration from one platform to another and it is not entirely possible. Here is the available information from Minecraft support :

It is not as simple as you may think and this is more like a process certain users try to accomplish.

You can also contact minecraft support and open a ticket so they can give you more details about if this is possible from an official standpoint:

I believe the Minecraft mods are stored locally and are not linked with your Microsoft account. You might be able to transfer the mods by hosting a modded Minecraft world on your PS4, and then joining that hosted world with you PS5. When it asks if you want to download resources/behavior packs, click yes. I believe that this should save those mods as cached data on your PS5 version of Minecraft.

It has been a few years since I modded Minecraft and I don't have any PlayStation console so I might be wrong on the transfer...

Hello, Jasper C. I'm Arturo, and I'll be glad to provide assistance with your inquiry today.

First, it is important to point out that I'm not part of the Microsoft or Minecraft staff.

That being said, I'm sorry to say, but without realms, it is not possible to transfer Minecraft worlds from one platform to another, like between Switch and PC.

Not only that, but it is critical to point out that worlds aren't synced between devices even if the same Microsoft account is used.

I know this is not the kind of answer you were expecting, but your understanding is appreciated.

Kind regards,

Arturo.
