Minecraft is owned by Microsoft (via Mojang Studios), so it is a first-party title on the Game Pass service. On PC, a Game Pass or Game Pass Ultimate subscription unlocks the Minecraft: PC Bundle, which delivers both Java Edition and Bedrock Edition through a single unified launcher on Windows 10 and 11, letting you switch between the two versions and cross-play with other current editions. On console and cloud, Game Pass Ultimate provides access to Minecraft: Bedrock Edition, and an active subscription (Game Pass Core or Ultimate) is also what enables online multiplayer on Xbox.
Because Minecraft is a Microsoft-owned game, it is not offered through Sony's PlayStation Plus Extra or Premium game catalogs or through EA Play; on PlayStation it remains a standalone purchase. Subscription catalogs and tier pricing change over time, so treat these details as accurate as of July 2026 and confirm the current listing on the official Xbox/Minecraft and PlayStation pages before subscribing.
