Key points
- Fully supports cross-platform multiplayer with mobile and console versions.
- Likely to perform better than Minecraft Java Edition.[3]
- Official add-on support, however, the modding community is more active around the Java Edition.
- Although the term Bedrock Edition refers to versions for various operating systems and hardwares, the Microsoft for Windows (prev. Windows 10 Edition) release is the only one of them to run on PC without sideloading nor emulation, and is the sole focus of this page.
