    [minecraft] Gamertag does not update for online servers but it updated in the launcher


    I have recently changed my gamertag and it shows the updated version on xbox.com and in the Minecraft launcher. However, after I have joined a server (which I have not used before the gamertag change) it shows the old gamertag.

    I have never had Mojang account and the game was purchased from the MS Store directly. I have tried to go to minecraft.net but, after logging in with my MS account, it does not show any MC version as purchased.

    :)

    Xbox gamertag changed in the minecraft launcher but not in Minecraft

    are you playing minecraft java edition or bedrock, as java i think does not use your gamertag. as you mentioned the minecraft launcher.

    Hello,

    Thanks for your reply and update.

    By the looks of your screenshot that is normal if you have purchased Minecraft: Bedrock Edition. The account that you used in signing into the Minecraft website should be the same account you use in Microsoft Store, Xbox app and Minecraft Launcher. If you are wondering if why you have to use Minecraft Launcher it is the new launcher of Minecraft that is updated for everyone to use. While Microsoft Store and Xbox app should share the same credentials in order for your game to update the Xbox achievements you will earn from playing in Minecraft.

    Since you have provided the details that you used Microsoft Store. It would be effective if you will update your system and Xbox app too. Aside from those steps, we have troubleshooting that you may see on this link under Problems installing a game from Xbox app so you will be guided on what to update. You may start checking this link now and follow through the steps to update and ensure you are ready to install the Minecraft Bedrock in Minecraft Launcher.

    We look forward for your update on how it went.

    Regards,

    Can't log into Microsoft account with two different Minecraft launchers: MultiMC and FTB launcher.

    use the proper launcher and stop risking your account with third party launchers for a start, Microsoft aint locking you out if you use the correct software. also updates to the servers can alter the api and therefore the third-party launchers would need to update their code.
