    Hello Bailey,

    Thanks for reaching out! I'm Adrian, an independent advisor here to help. I understand you’ve been playing Minecraft on PlayStation and now want to enjoy it on PC without repurchasing. That's a great question, actually.

    I am fond of playing games too. Based on my experience, unfortunately, Minecraft purchases are not cross-platform between consoles and PC. Each device platform, like PlayStation, Windows, Xbox, etc., has its own licensing system. That means if you purchased Minecraft on PlayStation, you won’t be able to download it for free on a PC, even if you’re using the same Microsoft account.

    I understand this may not be the answer you were hoping for, but I hope the information I provided was helpful. Please feel free to let me know if you have any other questions. I'm here to help!

    Best regards,
    Adrian A
