How to Play Minecraft Cross-Platform on PS4 and Xbox
Last updated
Ever wondered if you can play Minecraft across different platforms, like between PS4 and Xbox? Well, you’re in the right spot to find out!
If you’re asking yourself, “How can I play Minecraft on my PS4 with friends on Xbox?”, we’ve got the answers for you. Let’s dive in and explore how to make it happen.
Yes, You Can Play Cross-Platform
Minecraft allows players to game together across different devices. This means, yes, you can play with your friends on Xbox while you’re on your PS4!
To do this, you need a few things. First, every player needs to have the “Bedrock” version of Minecraft. This is because the “Bedrock” version includes the cross-play feature. Both PS4 and Xbox support this version, so you’re good to go there.
Setting Up Minecraft for Cross-Platform Play
The key to playing together is a Microsoft account. Everyone wanting to play across platforms must have one. If you don’t have a Microsoft account, you can easily create one for free.
After everyone has a Microsoft account, the next step is to add each other as friends. You can do this by searching for your friend’s Microsoft account username in the “Add Friends” section of the Minecraft game menu. Once you’re all friends in the game, you can join each other’s worlds or create a new one together, no matter if you’re playing on PS4, Xbox, or any other supported device.
