Why is Minecraft multiplayer option not available?

V R Heal · Mar 11, 2023

On Minecraft my daughter (part of my family group) does not have multiplayer option despite me updating all the privacy settings. Can you help?

She is playing it on a PC.

She is over 18.

Why can I play multiplayer on Fortnite if a Gold Live is needed? Is this specific to Minecraft?

I have minecraft on ios and I enjoy playing with my friends on their worlds. I can join theirs no problem, but they cant join mine and i don’t know why.

When creating a new world, make sure to select the Multiplayer option on the left side of your screen, and toggle the
Multiplayer Game option. While in that same window, make sure that the
Microsoft Account Settings drop down has your preferred invite settings.
