  • Unfortunately, we don’t know exactly how it will work. It turns out actually both Bedrock and Java will have to do age verification. We don’t know if they will let you use mods or earlier versions. Probably not cause then what’s the point? I don’t know how they will do it because they haven’t explained that part yet.

    Next month, Microsoft forced Mojang to comply with the UK government Online Safety Act. All users must upload Digital ID or some other form of Age Verification to a third party company called Yoti. Or else they won’t get to use the chat, friends list, and other social features. All users are affected for now it seems. Yoti claim they will delete the data right away and not store it. This means that even in single player we can’t use commands and see achievements and stuff like that. Really annoying. EDIT: Turns out this is on both Java and Bedrock and probably all platforms such as mobile! Not sure how or when it will happen though.
