I own the Java Edition of Minecraft and saw on YouTube that if you have the Java Edition, you get the Windows 10 Edition for free, but it is not the case for me: / Can someone tell me why?
I saw the video:
That's already old, I don't think it's possible anymore: /
Sorry thank you
Look when the video is from. That used to be an action, it no longer exists today. But why should you buy the Java version too?
For me it was then - I don't know if that's still the case today…
Because it is much better… And runs everywhere…
If you look at the date of the video, you will quickly see that this is from 2017. At that time there was really the action of Mojang or Microsoft that you can get a free Minecraft Windows version if you have a "legal" Minecraft Java version.
You got this on the Minecraft page if you were logged in. Now, of course, that is no longer the case. After all, it was a good 3 years ago. )
Running everywhere is more like the other version… That's why it's just called Minecraft… It runs on Windows 10, Android, and on all game consoles… And cross-play is also possible…
Yes, there was this action, but it was because you had the Java version before the Windows 10 Edition came out. However, the codes that you received back then are no longer valid.
And what about Linux? Is it going there too?
What am I interested in crossplay - have you ever been able to play smartly on your mobile phone? That's nonsense…
And I know both versions and the servers of both versions… The servers that many players have run on Linux and they are Java Version Server…
