Typically, when players want to play Minecraft on their mobile devices, they have to do so through a version of the game that runs on the Bedrock Edition codebase.

Millions of players worldwide take pleasure in playing Minecraft Java Edition, the original version of the game.

Starting June 7th, 2023, Minecraft Bedrock Edition became available on all Chromebooks. The official version includes crossplay functionality; you can play with friends across multiple platforms.

Install all Minecraft versions (Bedrock Edition, Java Edition, Education Edition, Classic) on Chromebook (ChromeOS), with or without Linux by following these instructions.

Java Edition users of Minecraft will need Java installed. After doing that, you’ll need to download the version of Minecraft Forge that matches your server version.
