Issues getting other MC version for free

Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

Hope you're doing great today despite this Bryce

You should be able to claim the other MC version for free (this, if you purchased Bedrock before June 2022):

"Click here( https://aka.ms/JavaBedrockEdition ) to go to the Microsoft Store listing for Minecraft: Java & Bedrock for PC.

Sign-in to the Microsoft Store with your Microsoft account. Please note: If you still only have a Mojang account and have not yet migrated to a Microsoft account, you will have to migrate to a Microsoft account before you can redeem your new game. Don’t fret, migrating your account is easy and free! (Click here to learn more about account migration or migrate your account now to take advantage of this offer.)

Once you’re signed in, instead of a “Buy” button you should see a button that says “Get.” Click this button – and now you own both editions!"

You can double check this and more here:

probably because BF3 has the same service for free, in fact, they had the same service on the original xbox version of BF2 MC for free.

QUESTION. Its thursday evening for australia and nz. When mc comes out tomorrow and if I choose to get the discounted mc version which 360 users are entitled to, will I still be able to play my 360 version of mc or should I pay the full rrp? Will get the
digital version when it comes out have digital 360 version

I really feel bad for you guys that's not much map to enjoy. If you wait a while and it looks like you're not getting a map extension you should buy the PC version(or play the free demo version) to experience it, if you're a big MC obviously. MC is the only
game I've played where I can travel for days and explore completely random lands and oceans. Making giant cart tracks to connect it or tunneling through the nether is fun too.

It's great that they're supporting it and it's making record sales. If anything the xbox version doing so well just speaks to how awesome MC is, even a lesser version gets people addicted.

The one part that beats PC is the xbox friends list thing. MC on PC is a lot less user friendly in that respect.
