What if you owned Minecraft Bedrock and Java before the 2022 giveaway?

Hi there! This is Ronnie, an independent advisor.

Nice to meet you and I hope you are having a great day!

I understand you have a question about owning Minecraft dungeons.

Actually, Minecraft dungeons needs to be purchase for you to own it as it was not included in the promotional bundle with Bedrock. But this game is for free to play if you have an active game pass subscription though.

If you have been playing the game without buying it then it must have been through game pass subscription.

I bought Java Edition on 24 May 2022. But I refunded it.

I bought the Minecraft: Java & Bedrock Edition for PC (the Bundle, released two days ago) on Minecraft official website (https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/store/minecraft-java-bedrock-edition-pc). on 8 June 2022.

I have uninstalled the Minecraft Launcher and reinstalled it.

You must have owned the either Java or Bedrock Edition on PC before June 6th 2022 other than that it's impossible to get kinda like the MINECON capes.

Hello WUTcappy,



Greetings!



Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

It seems there might be a misunderstanding regarding the eligibility for the Minecraft Java and Bedrock Edition bundle. According to the information provided by Minecraft, starting June 7, 2022, all players that have either Java Edition or Bedrock Edition will receive the edition they do not currently own for free, right in the Minecraft Launcher. This means that if you owned the Bedrock Edition before June 7th, you should be eligible to receive the Java Edition for free. See: Java & Bedrock Edition for PC is out on June 7 | Minecraft

However, it's important to note that having played the Java Edition through Game Pass does not grant ownership of the Java Edition. The offer applies to players who have purchased either the Java or Bedrock Edition before the specified date1.

If you're certain that you had Bedrock Edition in your library before June 7th and are still unable to access Java Edition, I recommend the following steps:

1. Check the Minecraft Launcher: Make sure you're using the latest version of the Minecraft Launcher and that you're logged in with the correct account that owns the Bedrock Edition. You can uninstall and reinstall Minecraft launcher to make sure you are running the most updated one.
   
2. Wait for the Rollout: It might take 2 to 3 days for the game to show up as the rollout to all eligible players is in progress.
   
3. Contact Support: If after waiting, you still don't see the Java Edition in your launcher, you should contact Minecraft support for assistance. They can look into your account details and clarify the situation regarding your eligibility. Go to this link: Contact Us | Minecraft Help
   

Remember to provide them with any relevant information, such as proof of purchase or account details, to help resolve the issue more efficiently. I hope this helps, and you get access to both editions soon!

We look forward to your response. Kindly let us know, if there is any misunderstanding or clarifications of our description by sending us a reply.

Sincerely,

I understand. If you go to the Minecraft website, it only shows you what you own Bedrock, not Java?
