Xbox - Minecraft - Multiplayer not working - already checked my xbox account (online safety)

x_Karlo_x · Nov 22, 2022

Minecraft on Xbox does show me that can not do Multiplayer and Clubs.
My account is the admin of a family accout - but NOT the child accout
My age is set correctly to >40 years
All Setting in "Privacy Setting" of my xbox account are set to
Everyone on the Privacy Tab
Allow on the Xbox On/Windows online Safety

Any I did press "Submit" there ....

I did restart Xbox - but nothing is getting picked up
I even did a reset to factory defaults ( keep the Apps ) - but did not help as well

So what else can be done to ensure my account can do Multiplayer

Hi Karlo
I was double checking, and yes. Live gold it’s required on Xbox

“ Do I need Xbox Live Gold or another subscription to play on a Realm?

Only if you want to play online. Xbox Live Gold is required for all multiplayer services on Xbox, no matter what console game you are playing. Xbox Live Gold is a paid service and is not required to access Realms on mobile devices or Windows 10. To play offline, you only need to sign up for Xbox Live, which is free.

A Nintendo Switch Online subscription is required for playing multiplayer on Nintendo Switch, this includes Realms.  A PlayStation:registered

lus membership is required for playing multiplayer on PlayStation:registered:.”

Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

Hope you're doing great today despite this x_Karlo_x

This can be a bit dumb, but do you have an active Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription (includes live gold) in your account?

Please double check this here

I ask that because most of the paid games on Xbox (and consoles in general) requires a Live Gold subscription in order to play online

I do have Live Gold or anything. My understanding was that this is not needed Minecraft.

Argument was that the Realms cost something - so it would bei Double payments. But this might be wrong then.

I think about it then

Thank you

Hello @TheUniesLeader!

If you have your settings set to block joining multiplayer games, you can’t join any multiplayer games in Minecraft, including shared local worlds, Realms or servers. To enable multiplayer in Minecraft, make sure this setting is set to ‘Allow.’

Hello @mirmir5!

In this case please check your Online Privacy / Multiplayer Settings. You will need ”Join Multiplayer games” AND ”You can create and join clubs” both allowed on your account.
