    Will I be able to access Minecraft on xbox if I own it on PC?

    Hi, Jahan! Thank you for reaching out.

    Unfortunately, Minecraft is not an Xbox "Play Anywhere" game and therefore, can't be installed on both Xbox and PC with the same purchase. This is because Minecraft has independent versions for each platform and they need to be purchased separately.

    For your reference:

    • You can consult the list of Xbox Play Anywhere games at: https://www.xbox.com/games/xbox-play-anywhere

    • Minecraft Java & Bedrock for PC: https://www.xbox.com/games/store/minecraft-java...

    • Minecraft Bedrock for Xbox consoles: https://www.xbox.com/games/store/minecraft/9mvx...

    -------

    As a fellow gamer, I understand this may not be the answer you were hoping for. I'm sorry, Jahan. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions, I'd be happy to help.

    Best regards,

    - AJ

    Minecraft Launcher not recognizing my owned games

    I just accessed it with the old launcher and it was able to recognize that I own Minecraft Java Edition. However, I cannot access Minecraft for Windows with that launcher and thus I cannot play Windows Edition.

    I don't have access to my Minecraft anymore?

    - "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?

    I "seem" to have minecraft bedrock edition on my xbox but cannot find it on the microsoft play store

    You would have to purchase the PC version in order to play it on the PC. Minecraft is not a Play Anywhere title so owning the Xbox version does not give you access to the PC version.
