How to Get Minecraft on Your Chromebook: A Simple Guide
Last updated
Wondering how you can dive into the world of Minecraft from your Chromebook? Let’s get into it!
If you’re scratching your head, thinking, ‘How do I get Minecraft on my Chromebook?’ you’re in the right place.
Yes, You Can Play Minecraft on a Chromebook!
First off, the good news: Yes, you can absolutely play Minecraft on a Chromebook! However, because Minecraft isn’t directly available through the Google Play Store for ChromeOS (the operating system on your Chromebook), the process needs a few workarounds.
One popular method involves enabling Linux on your Chromebook and then installing the Linux version of Minecraft. This might sound a bit techy, but it’s pretty straightforward. First, you’ll need to turn on Linux (Beta) from your Chromebook’s settings. After that, you’ll download and install the Minecraft.deb file from the official Minecraft website, install it using a few simple commands in the Linux terminal, and voilà, Minecraft is ready to roll on your Chromebook.
