Can you get Minecraft Java for free if you purchased Windows 10 edition
on Windows

I heard that you can get Minecraft java for free if you have the Windows 10 edition. Is that when you have the Windows 10 already or when you get the upgrade. How to know if you are eligible for the free copy of Minecraft java editions? Is it true even?

Microsoft acquired the Minecraft developer Mojang in 2014 and launched the Windows 10 beta version of the game the same year.[ref en-1] While the Java edition of the game is sticking around it seems that the future of the game is in the Bedrock Edition, which has the cross-platform play feature.

The short answer to the question "can you get Minecraft Java for free if you purchased Windows 10 edition?" is yes. It is possible to get the free version when you already have the Minecraft game before. Not everyone can do that, however. And it is not as easy as installing a browser extension or checking for Windows updates. Players who have purchased the Minecraft: Java Edition before October 19th, 2018, can get the game for Windows for free.

The question about Minecraft Java for free if you purchased Windows 10 edition surfaced in the internet forums for a while.[ref en-2] It is possible to redeem the free copy of Minecraft with the bedrock edition on Windows 10. Players who purchased the game before the October changes can get the game for free via their Mojang account.

If you purchased the game after that time, the particular function is not there. If you are not sure when the purchase was made, you need to check if the particular button for this is there. Pressing it creates the token and redirects you to the Microsoft redemption page.

If your account is the older Minecraft account, you might need help with the account migration.[ref en-3] You need to migrate the account to claim the code for Minecraft for Windows 10. You must be signed in to your account to redeem the code, and you cannot move this license once the code is gotten, it gets saved on the Mojang account.
