A Microsoft account is not required to play Minecraft on PS™. It does allow Minecraft players on PS™ to play with other players on non-PS™ devices like Android, iOS, Switch, Windows 10, and Xbox One.
It’s a free account that’s used to verify your access to computers and Microsoft services and applications. Your Microsoft account lets you manage everything all in one.
LINKING A MICROSOFT ACCOUNT TO A PLAYSTATION® ACCOUNT
Note: Once a Microsoft account has been linked to a PlayStation® account, neither the Microsoft account nor the PlayStation™ Network account can be associated with a different account.
If you choose to unlink accounts, then purchases will be returned to the account which made the purchase. Even after unlinking, Microsoft and PlayStation® accounts can only be re-linked to the original account.

SIGN IN TO PSN™ WITH YOUR MICROSOFT ACCOUNT

HOW DO I FIND MY FRIENDS ON THEIR MICROSOFT ACCOUNTS?
- Sign into your Microsoft account and click Play on the home screen.
- Tab to the right to reach the Friends tab.
- Click Add Friend.
- Find friends by entering their Microsoft Gamertag in the Search box.
WHY CAN’T I FIND MY FRIEND’S GAMERTAG?
Make sure you are entering your friend’s Gamertag correctly.
Note: You may only enter a Microsoft Gamertag as a player ID. Player IDs from other platforms are not supported at this time.
HOW MANY MICROSOFT ACCOUNTS CAN YOU TIE TO YOUR PLAYSTATION™ NETWORK ACCOUNT?
You can only tie one Microsoft account to a PlayStation™ Network account.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I UNLINK MY MICROSOFT ACCOUNT?
Note: Once a Microsoft account has been linked to a PlayStation™ Network account, it cannot be unlinked without loss of access to entitlements and Minecoins on other platforms.
WHY CAN’T I CONNECT ACCOUNTS?
Sometimes players attempting to link their Microsoft Account to their PSN™ ID encounter errors. There are two common error messages players see:
“FAILED TO LOG IN—SCENARIO ONE”
When you see this error message, it means that the Microsoft account is already connected to another account on the PlayStation™ Network.
The solution is to link the PSN™ ID to a different Microsoft account since the Microsoft Account you’re attempting to use is already connected to a different PSN™ ID. Each Microsoft account may only be linked to a single PSN™ ID and vice versa.
“FAILED TO LOG IN—SCENARIO TWO”
When you see this error message, it means that the PSN™ ID you’re attempting to link from is already connected with a Microsoft Account.
That’s good news! This error message tells you which Microsoft account the PSN™ ID is connected to. The solution is to sign in with the correct listed account. For example, in the image, you would sign in with the account MyOtherMSAccount where the “other account” is your other account name.
