Skin issue, Minecraft Bedrock

Hi Kyle,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Xbox Community. I understand that you're having issues changing the skin of your character in Minecraft. If Minecraft doesn't recognize your skin, then go to the main Minecraft Settings page, find the General tab, and make sure "Only Allow Trusted Skins" is toggled off.

Here is how to equip new items to your character in the dressing room.

Note: The Dressing Room is exclusive to Minecraft: Bedrock Edition.

Select Dressing Room.

Select the character slot you want to change the skin of or a new one.

Select Edit Character.

Select Classic Skins on the left bar.

Browse through and select the skin you want to use.

If you're still experiencing issues, go into the game settings, log out of your Minecraft account, and then log back in to resync your account.

Hi there! This is Virginia O.

I understand that you want to know if you can use the McDonald's Skin for Minecraft Java Edition.

I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

To set your expectations properly, the McDonald's Minecraft skin cannot be used in the Java Edition of the game because the McDonald's skin promotion is exclusively for the Bedrock Edition of Minecraft.

You will need to use the Minecraft: Bedrock Edition to access and equip the McDonald's skin.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Did you redeem the Minecraft Earth skin on the Ps4 Edition or o the Bedrock version?
