Is Minecraft Legends Free-to-Play (F2P)?

Wondering if Minecraft Legends is a free-to-play (F2P) title, and if not, how much money you will have to spend. Don't worry, Overworlder; we've got you covered.

This article explains Minecraft Legends' price per platform and if there is any way to get this new action strategy title from Mojang Studios and Blackbird Interactive for free, so let's start digging.

Minecraft Legends Free-To-Play (F2P)?

To enjoy the stunningly lush Overworld on the brink of destruction and save it from the Piglin invasion or compete against others in PvP multiplayer, you will have to open your wallet.

To make things abundantly clear, Minecraft Legends is NOT a free-to-play title. 

Can You Get Minecraft Legends for Free?

If you are an Xbox Game Pass subscriber (PC, Xbox consoles, and Cloud), and you don't consider the subscription cost, then technically, yes, you can play Minecraft Legends for free via Xbox Game Pass.

The game is a Day 1 release, which means the moment that Minecraft Legends' release date and time rolls around, everyone on Xbox Game Pass can play the game without opening their wallets to purchase one of the Editions.
