Minecraft crossplay

Playing Minecraft Server Hosting with friends enhances the experience, but compatibility across different editions can sometimes create obstacles. In this article, we explore which versions of the game support cross-platform play and provide a definitive answer to the question: Is Minecraft cross-platform?

TIP

Minecraft Bedrock Edition

Minecraft Bedrock Edition

Minecraft Bedrock Edition fully supports cross-platform gameplay across all supported devices. On PC, this version is specifically labeled as Bedrock Edition rather than Java Edition. For mobile and console players, it is often just titled "Minecraft", but rest assured—this is the version required for playing with friends across platforms.

It's worth noting that console players may need an online subscription service (such as Xbox Live Gold, PlayStation Plus, or Nintendo Switch Online) to access multiplayer features.

Minecraft Java Edition

Minecraft Java Edition

By default, Minecraft Java Edition does not support cross-play with Bedrock Edition, meaning Java players cannot connect with friends on consoles or mobile devices. However, third-party tools like GeyserMC allow Java servers to accept Bedrock players, effectively enabling cross-platform functionality.

Minecraft Education Edition

Minecraft Education Edition

Minecraft Education Edition is a distinct version of the game, separate from both Java and Bedrock Editions. As a result, it does not support cross-play with either of them.

However, within the Education Edition ecosystem, multiplayer functionality is available across Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and mobile devices, provided that all players belong to the same organization and account system.

For additional details, we recommend checking the official Minecraft Education Edition documentation.

Legacy Console Editions

TIP

Minecraft Hello Kitty and Friends DLC

Older console versions of Minecraft, including Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition and Minecraft PS3 Edition, do not support cross-platform play. These versions have been officially discontinued, meaning no further updates or new features will be introduced.

Conclusion

In summary, Minecraft Bedrock Edition is the primary version for cross-platform gameplay, while Minecraft Java Edition requires modifications to enable cross-play. Minecraft Education Edition allows multiplayer only within its own ecosystem, and legacy console editions do not support cross-platform play at all.

When playing with friends across different devices, ensuring that everyone is on a compatible version is key to a smooth multiplayer experience!

I’m Mr.Brauwn, and I’ve been part of the Minecraft world for over 10 years. Like many others, I started playing with friends in the early versions, but soon I discovered that servers had enormous potential to create unique experiences. Servers and Projects Over time, I specialized in creating custom servers, developing private projects, events, and collaborations with content creators. Configuring plugins, designing systems, and shaping communities quickly became an essential part of my daily life. The Leap into Content Creation After so many years working on servers, I realized I could also share all that knowledge and those experiences visually. That’s how I started streaming on Twitch, showcasing my own servers and playing on them with the community. From Twitch to YouTube Later on, I understood that this content shouldn’t only remain in livestreams. I decided to launch my YouTube channel, where I share curiosities, tutorials, plugin reviews, updates, and technical aspects of Minecraft. It’s a space for other players and creators to discover the same potential I once found in this game. What Minecraft Means to Me For me, Minecraft is more than just a game. It’s a part of my daily life: recording, editing, testing mods, configuring plugins, building, and sharing with my community. After more than a decade, my goal remains the same: to create, inspire, and enjoy this infinite world alongside everyone who joins me on the adventure.
