Sign up for a Microsoft account to begin playing Minecraft.
A Microsoft account opens worlds of new possibilities for your child’s Minecraft gameplay and makes it easier for you to monitor and control their experience.
A safe place for friends to play
A Microsoft account makes it easy for your child to find their friends and invite them to play Minecraft online. As a parent, you can control who they add to keep them safe. And with a Minecraft Realms subscription, your child can play and explore with up to 10 friends on their own private server.
