Hello, I am trying to install Minecraft Bedrock on Arch Linux to play cross-platform multiplayer with my friends. I have heard about the mcpelauncher but that requires to have Minecraft from Play Store, and I already have bought Java and Bedrock for PC. Can I do anything to actually play Minecraft Bedrock on Linux?
Just want to add that the reason Bedrock can’t work on Linux is because you can only get it through the Microsoft Store and, as far as I know, there is no way, and there will probably never be a way, to get games from there on Linux
Interesting. I didn’t know this. Hypothetically would there be a way to install it on Windows and transfer it to a Linux distro? I feel like they likely have their own DRM similar to GFWL or Steam and I don’t know how challenging it would be to get around.
Yeah everything installed via the Microsoft store is encrypted and won’t run outside the little sandbox it lives in. Hopefully someday someone figures it out but it looks unlikely anytime soon
