Unfortunately the resolutions on the link provided are not relevant to this situation with a Minecraft Realm.

Uninstalling and re-installing Minecraft did not help since I was essentially re-installing the "latest" version for PC that wasn't the latest version needed to play on the realms. The proper Minecraft update was made available for PC one day after realms was updated.

> Additionally, you can try checking for updates through the Microsoft Store app. To do this, open the Microsoft Store app, click on the three dots in the top right corner, and select "Downloads and updates." From there, click "Get updates" and see if there is an update available for Minecraft Launcher.

This was the original issue, in essence, the update for PC was not available on the Microsoft store until a day after the update was pushed to realms.

The issue was the Minecraft client on the Microsoft store being updated 24 hours after the update to realms was pushed, so for 24 hours there was a mis-match in the game versions.

Meaning for 24 hours it wasn't possible to play the game since the versions didn't match.

The issue is fixed now that the update has been pushed to PC however I hope that in the future the update gets pushed at the same time on PC and on the realm.

Thank you for your understanding and for taking the time to respond within a reasonable time-frame.

Happens to me aswell, tried the uninstall and reinstall and did not work for me. Might work for you.

I mostly play Minecraft since the latest update came out.

From the game dev's website:

Realms error: Client Outdated. When attempting to play on
Minecraft Realms, if you see an error that states that your
client is outdated, it means that you're using an older game version. To solve this, you will need to update your game to the latest release version of
Minecraft.
