Using an Xbox One Digital Code Card to get the full game of Minecraft...but on my PC

If it specifically says it's for the Xbox, then it's only for the console. There's no way to make it work on PC.

Hello Adnan,

If you want to buy Minecraft for PC from the Microsoft Store, you might be wondering if you can use an Xbox gift card from Amazon to pay for it. The answer is yes, you can. Xbox gift cards are not only for Xbox consoles and games, but also for any digital products and services from Microsoft, including the Microsoft Store. You can redeem your Xbox gift card on your PC by following these steps:

- Go to https://redeem.microsoft.com/ and sign in with your Microsoft account.

- Enter the 25-digit code from your Xbox gift card and click Next.

- Confirm the amount and the product you want to buy and click Confirm.

- Enjoy your Minecraft for PC!

You can also redeem your Xbox gift card on your Xbox console by going to the Store tab and selecting Use a code. Alternatively, you can use the Xbox app on your phone or tablet to scan the QR code from your gift card and redeem it. I hope this helps you get Minecraft for PC.

Have fun playing!

So on my xbox 360 i have Minecraft digitally downloaded. I just bought the minecraft bundle xbox one s and i entered the code for the full game and it says i already have it. I downloaded it but the file size was 313 MG. For minecraft i feel that
isn’t the full size. Did i somehow get it from my xbox 360 or is this a demo?? I’m very confused. To be honest this is why i prefer disc form of games vs digital.

I meant MB not MG sorry

- "Have you checked your order history if the Minecraft Xbox One edition was purchased on there before?"
- As I stated in the original post, I purchased the Xbox One S 'Minecraft Edition.' I own the game through a digital code.

- "The PC version was provided as a code I believe so you can redeem that to any account."
- The code in my purchase history simply says "Minecraft for Windows." If it was a PC-only code, then why was I able to still access Minecraft Windows edition on my Xbox previously, but cannot do so now? The way I see it: I got a game with my Xbox to play on my Xbox, Microsoft buys up Mojang, gives me a code to play Minecraft on my PC, then takes away all forms of me playing Minecraft on my Xbox. Does this make sense?

Hi Sen

Their purpose is the same, although if you play on PC it's much better to get a Microsoft gift card in your case.
