Is Minecraft on Steam?

No. Minecraft is not sold on Steam. PC players use the Minecraft Launcher from Minecraft.net, and console players buy it in their platform store.

When does Minecraft come to Switch 2?

Mojang announced a native Nintendo Switch 2 version for October 27, 2026. Owners of the Switch version get a digital upgrade path, with details still to be announced when we checked.

Is Minecraft safe for kids?

It is rated ESRB E10+ and PEGI 7. Child accounts have multiplayer off by default, and parents can control chat and friends. Community servers are not moderated by Mojang, so Realms or no multiplayer are safer for young players.
