Minecraft Bedrock Update coming soon to the Switch, will allow for crossplay
The Nintendo Switch version of Minecraft will be getting a major update soon, which will allow for online crossplay with Minecraft players on Xbox One, PC, iOS, and Android. Titled the Bedrock Edition, it'll be a free update to those who already own the game, and it'll also be packaged and sold on store shelves as well. The update will also add smaller features such as an internal achievements system like the other platforms currently have, and the ability to make ingame purchases on the Minecraft Marketplace, where players can buy skins or texture packs. The update will go live on June 21.
