Xbox Account Migration to New Microsoft Account

Since someone already posted about this I'll just add on, but can you elaborate on "Create and add a new account after the migration then link that account to your Microsoft account"?

Are you saying to create a whole new Mojang account to then connect to the Microsoft one used for migration, or to connect the Microsoft account used for migration back to the Mojang one that was used to sign in before the migration?

You don't need to create a new account. You can migrate your existing account by following the steps here: https://support.xbox.com/my-account/microsoft-account/update-microsoft-account-country-region

Migrating account also migrates your games if avaialable in that region, Xbox live gold and game pass subscriptions, if you were subscribed.

Xbox One games are region free so you should be good. But it will be a good idea to migrate your account to Korea so that your subscriptions if any such as Xbox Live Gold and Game Pass also migrate to new region.

Please follow the steps listed here to migrate your account: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/my-account/microsoft-account/update-microsoft-account-country-region

It's not in the migration instructions, but after the migration, you have to ADD a NEW account, and link it to your Microsoft account. Startup will take longer, but it sure works.

On the login prompt in the java launcher, go back. You'll see the mojang account you had been signing into - ignore it, and add a new account to the launcher. Using the email address associated with the microsoft account you just migrated to, sign in with the email address and password of your microsoft account. It's not an elegant migration on the UX side of things, but it does work.
