Minecraft Realms isn’t working

SamGerhart · Mar 15, 2020

I cannot join my friends Minecraft realm. It says that I need to change my privacy settings. What privacy settings should be allowed to do that?

Hello SamGerhart,

As described in
this post :

https://account.xbox.com/en-us/Settings

Privacy & online safety

Select account

Go to XBOX ONE (middle selection) settings

Allow multiplayer....(I allowed like everything here and it worked, but i think that was the key one)

(I also clicked friends on almost everything on the first selection (Privacy))

It took 1 minute to update.

I’ve been trying to join a realm on Minecraft but I’m having this error and I tried everything I could find I am on a ps5 which Ik isn’t for Microsoft.

Hi there! If you only have Minecraft Xbox One Edition, it won't work on Realms. You will need the single/self titled Minecraft game to play on Realms. More info here: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/games/game-titles/minecraft-realms-overview

Still isn’t working. I would appreciate if they could figure out a solution. Controller isn’t responding to anything on Minecraft, but it’s working on literally ALL other games.
