Buy Minecraft again?

Hello I've had Minecraft for the PS4 for a long time, but I would also like to play it on the Switch.

My question: Do I have to buy the game again although crossplay has been possible recently? I have already linked the PS4 variant to my Microsoft account

Are the ps4 and the switch version not one and the same? Then you should actually be able to log into your account

Sy

Of course, after all, you can't link your accounts.

I thought so too, but the only way to download Minecraft to the switch is chargeable as far as I know

Why do you expect that for Minecraft? Can you buy Skyrim on PS3 and play on Switch? Can you buy Witcher 3 on the PC and play on the switch? This is not possible with any game but with Minecraft it is always expected.

You have a lot of idea kappa. So when I wanted to play the windows 10 edition, I didn't have to buy it again because I already had the pocket edition and made accounts there.

I do not expect from any game that it is possible to play on any platform and only pay once, but I would still like to know before I pay 25 euro that would not be necessary.

And as @scaryle has already mentioned, it has so far been possible in other situations, why not in this case
