FebuKev Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Hi, I do not know anything about Minecraft but would like to buy one in order to try. Please, can someone tell me what is the difference between the new Bedrock and the Editions? If I buy Bedrock, can I get all the trophies (even those saying "Editions only") or should I get both versions for that? Thank you, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be great that they fix the problem so we can access with the new version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also with installing that and then making the updates the Switching Option is still not available. So there is no chance at the moment to get the Expansion 2 Trophies right? There must be another option maybe but buying the Minecraft PS4 Edition on Physical copy and then update doesnt work for me... Even the support doesnt answer since release of that...

I got advice from @HuntingFever in a separate thread as to which physical edition allows for switching between versions (LINK), I bought it last week and it works without any problems. Is this the edition you bought? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I bought the game as linked above and then I didn't do anything extra, just installed it (with all updates) and it lets me switch between editions without any issues. I guess it will work for you just fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
