Can you use Minecraft on different computers?

We're often asked if players can download Minecraft for free after purchasing it on a different device. Unfortunately, this is not possible. This is because Minecraft is sold and licensed separately on each platform, and transferring licenses is not possible as each platform has their own marketplace.

Do you have to buy Minecraft twice for two computers?

You don't have to download Minecraft twice, but you do have to buy a second account if you want them to have separate accounts. They'll be able to play on the same copy of Minecraft with their own accounts, or they can play on different computers at the same time (even together, in multiplayer).

Do you have to buy Minecraft for every computer?

Just log in to your account on the other computer and download it. Show activity on this post. Minecraft is linked to your Mojang account, so if you buy it now, you can later install it on your gaming PC without having to rebuy it. All you need is an active Internet connection and your Mojang account credentials.
