However, when it comes to Java Edition and Bedrock Edition players wanting to play together, things get a little complicated because of the different servers and platforms on which the game runs.

For the Java Edition, cross-play with the Bedrock is not officially supported. However, tools like GeyserMC allow the Bedrock players to connect to the Java servers easily.

The Minecraft Bedrock Edition supports crossplay on Android, iOS, Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and more. Bedrock players also have access to Realms, a multiplayer server run by Minecraft.

Minecraft Java Edition players can only cross-play with people on the same version, which is relegated to PC, Mac, and Linux.
