How to get Bedrock edition on PC without having to pay another 40 dollars for the deluxe edition?

Question

I have had Minecraft Java Edition on my PC for years now. Recently, I wanted to get bedrock for a realm. I read on minecrafts website that if I had paid for Java edition, I would get Bedrock with no additional cost on the launcher. That does not seem to be the case. I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to get bedrock onto the launcher. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it using the Windows 10/11 Download link, and it doesn't change anything. On the minecraft webite on my account, it says I have every mineccraft version except Bedrock. Why?! I really would love to not pay 40 dollars for the deluxe version (Java & Bedrock) when I have already paid for it. And yes, I do have bedrock on my Xbox account. I tried downloading it onto my PC using the Xbox store, and that also did nothing.

Hi ZeeRI,

I am John J.D., a fellow Microsoft user like you.

I understand your issue. According to a Minecraft article, starting June 7, 2022, all players that have either Java Edition or Bedrock Edition will receive the edition they do not currently own for free, right in the Minecraft Launcher. So if you own Java, you’ll get Bedrock – and vice versa.

To do so, you can follow these steps:

> Go to this link: https://aka.ms/JavaBedrockEdition

> Sign in to the Microsoft Store with your Microsoft account. Note that if you haven't migrated to a Microsoft account yet, you'll need to do that first before redeeming your new game.

> Once you're signed in, instead of a "Buy" button, you should see a button that says "Get." Click on this button, and you should now own both editions.

If you have completed these steps and still cannot access the Bedrock Edition, I recommend reaching out to Minecraft support for further assistance. They will be able to help you resolve the issue.

Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns. I'm here to help you with this one. Let's work together to resolve the issue.

Best regards,

John J.D.
