TL;DR: Minecraft: Java and Bedrock Edition comes with both versions of Minecraft on sale for $19.97.
Buying Minecraft on PC usually forces you to choose between versions, and that choice can limit how and where you play later. Minecraft: Java & Bedrock Edition removes that problem by including both editions in one digital purchase, accessible from a single launcher, and it’s still only $19.97 (reg. $29.99).
This bundle gives you lifetime access to Minecraft: Java Edition and Minecraft: Bedrock Edition under one account. You launch either version from the same Minecraft Launcher, switch between them freely, and receive updates for both at no extra cost. Nothing is subscription-based, and you keep access permanently.
Java Edition is designed for desktop use on Windows, macOS, and Linux. It supports extensive community mods, custom servers, and advanced customization options, but requires stronger hardware and only allows multiplayer with other Java users.
Bedrock Edition is built for broader compatibility. It runs on Windows 10 and 11 and connects with players on consoles and mobile devices through cross-platform play. Bedrock generally runs more efficiently and includes access to the Minecraft Marketplace, where skins, worlds, and add-ons are available for purchase.
Important limitations apply. Worlds and saves do not transfer between Java and Bedrock editions. The product is available only to new users, and the redemption code must be used within 30 days of purchase.
