Minecraft Xbox One Edition Version an specs.

So, I am new to Minecraft and there seems to be a ton of information on the net, tutorials and update/bug/fix notes, however it is really difficult to sort out what applies to the Xbox one version and what does not. Now that Microsoft owns the game I am
wondering if they will help to create or sort out some of the information as it applies to what we can and can not do. I really think this will help to really grow the Xbox One Minecraft community and I believe it will help us gamers get the most out of the
game.

My household has 3 Xbox One consoles and the level of frustration is ever increasing do to the lack of literature and update notes readily available in an organized forum/ community.

What are the chances of something more than this forum which seems to be used more to find fellow players than to collect and share game information being created?

What can I do and what are the developers/ Microsoft teams willing or planning to do if anything at this time?

Very Respectfully,

:)

Playing Minecraft between devices and platforms

You can play Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition with other devices running Minecraft: Pocket Edition, such as Windows 10 and Windows Phone devices.

DLC not transfered over from old to new Minecraft Xbox successfully

I have a problem with the DLC transfering between the Minecraft: Xbox One Edition and Minecraft (new). As Mojang said your DLC from the Old Minecraft should transfer over to the new Minecraft. That worked for all my DLC but the DLC that was included in the
Minecraft: Xbox One Favarites Edition (That’s the Version I own). It just didn’t transfered over to the new Minecraft.

Information (if needed to help me:

Console: Xbox One S

Old Mineraft: Digital Version of the Minecraft: Xbox One Favorites Edition

New Minecraft: Digital Version of the Game Minecraft (I was not in the Beta)

The PC version is developed by Mojang, whereas the One version is developed by 4J. Totally different studios. Usually, the PC version gets updated and the console versions follow suit at a later date.

Alternatively, 4JStudios has often directed people to minecraftforum.net for information on all console platforms, including the Xbox 360 and Xbox One editions of the game.

Hi there,

Have you hard reset your Xbox and power cycled it to see if Minecraft on Xbox One received an update as well?

I noticed this note on the Mojang support page for transferring worlds on Xbox Consoles: "Please note:
It’s not possible to transfer a world directly from Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition to the new version of Minecraft for Xbox One. To do this, you will need to first transfer the world to Xbox One Edition
and then to the new version of Minecraft."

If I'm not mistaken Minecraft Xbox One Edition was upgraded to the new version of Minecraft with the BTU but based on that note you would have to upload the worlds to the Xbox One edition and then to the newest version of Minecraft on Xbox One. I'm not sure
if this has anything to do with the issue but I figured it was worth noting.

Yes, both my Xbox 360 and Xbox One are fully updated. Minecraft Xbox One Edition or Legacy Edition and the Xbox one Better Together Edition are not the same. The BTU is an inferior version of Xbox One Minecraft Edition based off of the Pocket Edition for
phone. It has extreme lag, chaotic menu system and broken redstone functions. I run Xbox One Edition not the BTU. So transferring to the new version of Minecraft for Xbox One has no relevance to me. They even state you need to transfer it to the Xbox One Edition
(the version I use) first which you can do. But once it is transferred to that edition it can not be used on that same edition.

On the One do you have "Minecraft Xbox One Edition" or "Minecraft"? The One version of the game had an updated a while ago and it is no longer possible to transfer 360 saves to the updated version. "Minecraft Xbox One Edition" is the original version for
the One and the save can be transferred to that version.

Hi

Is your friend trying to use "Minecraft Xbox One Edition" or the version just called "Minecraft" , If your friend trying to use the one called "Minecraft Xbox One Edition" I don't believe this version is able to join your Minecraft world.
