    (MINECRAFT) Been 2-3 years and I still did not receive a vanilla cape?


    So I know this happened like all the way back in 2022, and we're in 2025 now but, recently I started to get back on this game, went to change my skin to a updated one but I've noticed I STILL do not have the vanilla cape, I owned both java and bedrock before 2022 (java around 2016-2018, bedrock around 2020) on the same account, but I still do not have the vanilla cape, (java was registered thru mojang but I did migrate, yet nothing) and I know its been like 2-3 years since that happened but I really wish to know if I can still get it, as I've mentioned I owned both of them in the same account, how come I dont have it?

    :)

    Hello and welcome to our community!

    We’re excited to have you here and have great conversations! I'd be happy to be of assistance.

    I am sorry to hear about this issue. As far as I know, if you owned both Java and Bedrock Edition on PC on a single account before June 6, 2022 (whether by purchase or by code redemption), you will receive this special cape, and you’ll be able to wear it in both editions. Like previous capes, it should show up in your Dressing Room or the Skin Customization menu automatically.

    Could you confirm if you owned the game on the specified date? You can verify your purchase by checking your Order History https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders. If the game appears in your order history, I recommend reaching out to Mojang Support https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/request/new to inquire about the cape eligibility.

    Hope this helps. Let me know if you need further assistance.

    (Minecraft) Vanilla cape not received after nearly a year

    Hey there!

    Nice to meet you! I'm Darhyl, a fellow gamer. I'm sorry you are experiencing this. I am here to help.

    According to the Minecraft FAQ:

    CAN I BECOME ELIGIBLE FOR THE VANILLA CAPE AFTER JUNE 6, 2022?

    If you did not purchase both versions of Minecraft on the same Microsoft account fo PC before June 6, 2022, it is not possible to become eligible for the Vanilla cape.

    HOW DO I ACQUIRE THE VANILLA CAPE?

    We began rolling out the vanilla cape to eligible players on Wednesday, August 31st. However, these rollouts will continue into the coming months. Once it arrives, the cape should show up in your Dressing Room and Skin Customization menus automatically in both versions of the game. If you don’t see your cape, try refreshing the game by logging completely out and back in.

    Note: The vanilla cape may not appear in both versions of Minecraft at the same time. If the cape appears in one game and not the other, give it some time, and it should eventually appear in your other version.

    Unfortunately, both games must have been owned on a single Microsoft account prior to June 6, 2022, to receive the cape. Minecraft Support cannot 'merge' two accounts to force eligibility, and account migrations that have taken place after June 6, 2022, will not be eligible for the cape.

    Try to sign out and re-sign into your account on Minecraft Launcher, however, if the issue still persists, contact Mojang support as they can provide you further assistance on how to acquire your Vanilla cape in-game item by submitting your ticket request here on this link:

    https://feedback.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/request... or

    https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/request/new...

    After submitting the ticket request, you will receive an update from Mojang within 24 - 48 hours.

    Thank you so much for your time, I hope you have a great day!

    How to get cape in minecraft 2023

    Hi Tou!

    Based from the Minecraft FAQ, "If you did not purchase both versions of Minecraft on the same Microsoft account for PC before June 6, 2022, it is not possible to become eligible for the Vanilla cape. "

    Did you just recently purchase the two Minecraft Editions?
