Can I allow my son who is 12 to play multiplayer minecraft?

Thank you for replying but it doesn't let me change privacy.

Hi, JustinLin_919!

Thank you for your reply.

Changing your son's privacy settings from his account won't be possible because he has a child account. To change his settings, you'll need to add his account to a family group set by you as the organizer, and then manually change his settings and content restrictions.

- The easiest way to do this is through the Xbox Family Settings app, which is available for Android and iOS: https://www.xbox.com/en-US/apps/family-settings...

1) Download the Family Settings App.

2) Sign in to your Microsoft Account. If you don't have one yet, you'll need to create one.

3) Add your child's account.

4) Tap "Settings" and select your son's account.

5) From there, you should be able to manage his settings.

- If you already have a Family group set by you as the organizer, you can also change your child's settings by signing in to your account at: https://account.xbox.com/en-US/Settings

Hi, JustinLin_919! thank you for reaching out.

Are you getting an error code/message stating your son's profile is not allowed to access multiplayer features on Minecraft? if you are, then you will need to change his account's Online Privacy and Security settings, as stated on this support page:

https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/family-onli...

Please keep in mind that if Minecraft is rated above your son's age limit, you will need to manually allow his profile permission to access the game.

To access realms, the three main settings that need to be enabled are:

- You can play with people outside of Xbox

- You can create and join clubs

- You can join multiplayer games

How to fix Minecraft account

I'm enjoying the beta at the moment,it's a shame Microsoft won't allow it as I would like to play it with my son who has a x1.

I can see why the wouldn't allow cross platform on a fps but not in this case.
