How to migrate Minecraft account from Mojang to Microsoft 

With the purchase of Mojang and their hit sandbox game Minecraft, Microsoft made a big move. The tech company is one of the biggest and has added one of the most popular games in history to its catalog. In doing so, it became linked with Xbox and so now, Mojang accounts are linked to Microsoft accounts.

Players have to migrate their accounts to Microsoft before they become inactive and require players to create new Microsoft accounts, which is less than ideal. Here’s how to migrate the account.


Migrating a Minecraft account to Microsoft

According to Mojang,

“Migrating from Mojang to Microsoft accounts is mandatory. If you don’t make the move, in several months you won’t be able to log in anymore – which means you won’t be able to play either. … You’ll receive a cool reward once you’ve logged in with your Microsoft account: a special cape!”

This means that all players will have to join Microsoft in order to continue playing. Regardless of the platform, whether it’s an iPhone, a Nintendo Switch or a PlayStation 5, all players will have Microsoft accounts.

Even Nintendo Switch Minecraft players will have to use a Microsoft account. Image via MinecraftMinecraft players will have officially migrated their Mojang accounts to Microsoft and will be able to play and receive the free cape.
