Ain't available directly on Steam, folks. You gotta switch to Desktop Mode, buy Minecraft from the official site, and install it manually. A bit of a roundabout but totally doable.

Directly on Steam? Nope. But that doesn’t stop the gaming train. Desktop Mode is your ticket to Minecraft town. Get it from the official Minecraft site, install, and you’re golden.
