  • While not logged into a Microsoft Account, you can host and join standard world multiplayer sessions with players from your Steam friends list

  • Note: a Microsoft Account is still required for Crossplay, Shared Worlds and Playgrounds

        I didn’t realize when I got it that I needed to sign in to my Microsoft account to play multiplayer, which was the whole reason why I got it on steam. I played it before when it was on game pass, but I’ve since cancelled my subscription and I wanted to play the game.
