In the case of the Bedrock edition, it does not discriminate against any platform, just add your friends and play along. Consoles do not have the Minecraft javascript edition. Some platforms by default come with a particular edition that cannot be changed. Note: Minecraft of different versions cannot be used to play together.

Add your friends, and wait for them to accept the invite, once they do, they will immediately join you in the game. On this new window, you will see “Find Cross-Platform Friends” click on it. You’ll notice the option “Invite to Game.” Click on that option to pop up another window. Log in to your Microsoft account, create a new world or re-load the one you are already using, and open your in-game menu.

If you already have a Microsoft account, then follow this process. You will need a Microsoft account to achieve this. So the next question is, how do you add your friends to Minecraft? The Bedrock edition allows you to play the game with anyone, no matter the device they are using to play, so long as you have Bedrock Edition. For those using the JavaScript version, you can only play the game on specific devices, you cannot make use of cross-play if your device is not supported. Minecraft currently works only on two editions, namely JavaScript and Bedrock editions. The way Minecraft is built, it has all the necessary features that make it a good multiplayer game. Studies have shown that one of the things that people love about it is its ability to be played by multiple players. Meanwhile in the gaming world, forums like Dota 2, Grand Theft Auto, Epic Games, and Clash of kings also suffered massive data breaches due to a flaw in vBulletin’s outdated version.Minecraft is going viral and is gaining huge fans globally. Here is a screenshot from LifeBoat data for readers:Ģ016 has been a very bad year for tech, gaming and social media giants. Earlier this year, hackers stole and sold 427 Million MySpace passwords on the same dark web marketplace in May 2016, 117 million LinkedIn and 33 million Twitter login credentials were listed on a dark web marketplace for sale. Hacked-DB also mentioned that the data was stolen somewhere in January 2016 and only now it surfaced on the web. This kind of information can lead to various attacks and impersonation to gain more information and data. Think of MD5 as an algorithm which is equivalent to clear-text. The MD5 encryption algorithm that is used at the database to encrypt the passwords is ineffective at all since it can be decrypted very easily.

The data structure includes username, email address and password with the MD5 hash algorithm. The total number of compromised unique accounts is 7,235,619.

The data was scanned and analysis by researchers at and here’s the result: “When this happened early January we figured the best thing for our players was to quietly force a password reset without letting the hackers know they had limited time to act. If they alerted people about passwords being reset they would’ve basically been telling the hackers to hurry up and ALL data would’ve been stolen.” Analysis: However, just when Lifeboat thought the nightmare is over the data has gone public creating yet another issue for the company.Īccording to a statement back in April LifeBoat said that, The breach was actually discovered by Troy Hunt of haveibeenpwned but at that time the data was only available at his platform while LifoBoat, on the other hand, didn’t bother to inform its users until the news about this breach went public in April 2016. Now, someone has leaked the stolen data or Dark Web and other underground hacking forums and researchers at data breach notification company Hacked-DB have grabbed it. Lifeboat, a platform that provides gamers with an option to run servers for playing customised and multiplayer version of Minecraft suffered a data breach in January 2016 in which login details of seven million users were stolen. Lifeboat has something to worry about - Perhaps it should inform users how the stolen 7 Million accounts from January 2016 breach have surfaced online now?
