Minecraft will require a Microsoft account to play in 2021
Found on The Verge on Sunday, 25 October 2020
Players who own the original version of the game and do not switch to a Microsoft account will be unable to play.
While not as incendiary as Facebookâs decision to require Facebook accounts for the use of Oculus headsets, Minecraft is still one of the biggest games in the world and now many players will have to take action if they still want to play.
Sadly most kids will sign up. It would be much better if the masses would migrate somewhere else. These forced signups are turning into an online pandemic.
