Ever wondered how you can add friends on Minecraft when playing on your Nintendo Switch? You’re not alone! It’s a popular question among gamers who want to share their Minecraft adventures with pals. Let’s dive right into how you can connect with friends and make your gaming sessions even more exciting.

Adding friends on Nintendo Switch Minecraft might seem tricky at first, but it’s actually pretty straightforward once you know the steps. So, if you’re looking to team up and explore together, you’re in the right place.

Quick Steps to Add Friends

To add friends on Minecraft for the Nintendo Switch, you first need to ensure that both you and your friend(s) have a Nintendo Switch Online subscription. This service is essential for online multiplayer gaming on the Nintendo Switch. Once you’ve confirmed that, follow these simple steps:

  • Launch Minecraft on your Nintendo Switch.
  • From the main menu, select ‘Sign in with a Microsoft account’ if you haven’t already linked your Microsoft account to your Minecraft game.
  • Once signed in, navigate to the ‘Friends’ tab on the main screen.
  • Here, you can add friends by their Gamertag. Ensure you have your friend’s Gamertag, which is their unique username on the Microsoft network.
  • After entering their Gamertag, send them a friend request. Once they accept, you’re all set to start playing together!

This process not only allows you to play Minecraft with friends but also gives you access to multiplayer features and communities within the game. Now, let’s make it even more interesting.
