Much like every other first-party Xbox game, Minecraft will become a permanent Game Pass feature, according to Ben Decker, Head of Gaming Services at Microsoft. The vast majority of these platforms are cross-play compatible, which means that players can join a server from any device to any other other device, minus PlayStation 4.

The Minecraft community spans a multitude of platforms, including Xbox One, mobile (iOS/Android), Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 4. Minecraft is joining its first-party brethren on Xbox Game Pass, beginning on April 4.
