MrLordly · May 14, 2022

Hello unsers,

I want to play Minecraft and through the microsoft migration with a microsoft conto which has an age of 15 which is under 18 I only can play the singleplayer mode in Minecraft. So I have to change my microsoft age. How can I do that?

Can you help me?

Thank you for your answers.

Hi, MrLordly! thank you for reaching out.

I'm afraid you can't turn an account into the one of an adult by just changing the account's age. If you currently have a child account, then you'll have to ask your parent/guardian to add you to a Family group so they can manage your account's permissions. This is explained in detail at: https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/articles/36...

I hope this helps!

It's not possible to change the age of an account once it has been created. So you may have changed the age of your Microsoft account, but your Xbox account would still be set as under 18.

Nope... This is all wrong...

Microsoft considers under the age of 18 as a child account. Then, it's depends on if they are over the age of 13 or a member of a Microsoft family account.
