Hi, I have an xbox series x and I want to play Minecraft xbox one edition on this console....

I like playing older versions of Minecraft, but more specifically Minecraft: Legacy edition. I want to purchase a copy of Minecraft: Xbox One edition for my Xbox Series X console. Will I be able to play the legacy version, or be forced to play Bedrock?

Thanks.

Cab make. The Simpsons games. Work. On the Xbox one x

You have names mixed up. There are no consoles named the Xbox One Series S or Xbox One Series X.

The Xbox One/One S/One X all have a disc drive.

The Xbox One S All Digital Edition does not have a disc drive.

The Xbox Series X has a disc drive.

The Xbox Series S does not have a disc drive.

All the consoles can play backward compatible games. The Series S and One S all digital edition can only play games digitally downloaded.

The other consoles can play games from disc and from digitally downloaded,

I hope this clears things up for you.

Yes, the Minecraft Xbox One Edition is playable on the Xbox Series X|S via backward compatibility. You can also check from the Xbox store that it's playable on Xbox one and series consoles: https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/store/minecraf.... Kindly make sure to purchase Xbox series X since the Series S doesn't have a disc drive.

Sorry but 2k has not announced cross-play for the game.

Since you have to pay for the game separately on both consoles I doubt they will have Xbox One and Xbox Series X crossplay.

Before someone says If you buy NBA 2K21 Mamba Forever Edition you get the Xbox Series X version. Yes, that edition bundles both the Xbox One version and the Xbox Series X version but is not a free upgrade or the same game.

You can play the Xbox one version on your Series S/X console as well. They’re backwards compatible

If you don’t have an Xbox One console my recommendation would be as you said, refund and purchase the Series X/S edition
In that way you can cross play with PC and PS5 players (and of course, play with people that uses the X/S edition)
