Creating a Minecraft Account

To dive into the world of Minecraft, you first need to create a Microsoft account, which is essential for logging into the game. Navigate to the official Minecraft website using your web browser. Locate the "Sign In" button in the upper right corner and click it. You'll be prompted to create a new account if you don't have one.

Enter your email address and create a strong password for your Minecraft account. Choose a unique username; if it's already taken, the system will offer alternatives. After setting up your account, you'll need to verify your email address by entering the code sent to you. If the email doesn't arrive promptly, check your "Spam" folder.

Once your email is verified, your profile will be created and linked to your Microsoft account. If you haven't purchased the game yet, you can do so by selecting the desired version from the store on the website and following the instructions to complete your purchase.

How to start your journey

PC (Windows, macOS, Linux)

Minecraft on PC offers two main versions: Java Edition and Bedrock Edition. Java Edition is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux and can be downloaded from the official Minecraft website. After installation, launch the Minecraft launcher, log in with your Microsoft or Mojang account, and select the version you want to play.

Upon launching the game for the first time, you'll see an authorization window. Enter your Microsoft account details to log in. To start a solo game, click the "Create New World" button, where you can choose between "Survival" mode for a classic challenge or "Creative" mode for unlimited resources.

For multiplayer, navigate to the "Play" section in the main menu and select the "Servers" tab. You can join a public server or enter a private server's IP address if you have an invitation. To play with friends in the same world, create or load a world, then enable multiplayer in the settings.
