    New cape alert

    Sign in with your Microsoft account and earn a unique reward!

    Ah, spring, what an amazing time of the year! Birds chirp, flowers sprout, and the Minecraft capes finally crawl out from their hidey holes after their long, well-deserved winter hibernation. Unbeknownst to the capes, this is also the perfect opportunity for players to acquire new capes and add them to their collection, and this year, there’s a certain cape available for the taking! 

    As of today, May 6, you can sign in to Minecraft Bedrock Edition with your Microsoft account and become the owner of the fabulous-looking Common Cape*, inspired by one the game’s most recognized blocks. Which one? Er, honestly, we can’t remember, but we’re sure you’ll figure it out...

    Now, who’s that fancy fellow? Well, it could be YOU!/

    This classy cloak can be donned on both Bedrock and Java Edition after logging in to the game with your Microsoft account on any Bedrock Edition device.  

    If you haven’t yet created a Microsoft account, we strongly encourage you to get one as it gives you a number of benefits, such as:  

    • Access to cross-platform multiplayer 
    • Secure two-factor authentication 
    • Improved parental controls 
    • Chat and invitation blocking 
    • Access your Marketplace content and characters across platforms 
    • Unlock achievements 
    • Happy Minecraft developers 

    ...and more!

    HOW TO SIGN IN

    Now, let’s help you capture that cape! Signing in to (or signing up for) a Microsoft account can vary depending on the game version (Java Edition or Bedrock Edition) and the platform you’re using. To earn your cape, you need to have the Microsoft account set up before you log in via Bedrock Edition.   

    The whole process is done in a few steps, and will run more smoothly if you use our guide for how to create a Microsoft account. 

    You can also use the Microsoft account Sign-in Helper if you run into any trouble! 

    We hope you enjoy the improved benefits of a Microsoft account – and your Common Cape. Make sure to flaunt it at your next spring cape gathering, if that’s even a thing?

    FAQ 

    What do I need to do to get the cape? 

    Sign in (or finish linking) with a Microsoft Account on any Minecraft: Bedrock Edition platform after 9 a.m. PDT on May 6, 2025. As soon as the sign-in flow completes, the cape is automatically granted to that account’s inventory. No separate code or purchase is required. 

    Can I only claim the cape once? 

    Yes! The promotion is allowed once per Microsoft Account. After the cape is added, it remains permanently attached to that account and cannot be redeemed again. 

    How do I create a Microsoft Account? 

    You can create one for free in just a few minutes by following the official steps here. When the signup process finishes, return to Minecraft and log in with those credentials. 

    I’m already signed in with an MSA – will I still receive the cape? 

    Absolutely. Any qualified account that is already signed in at the time mentioned above will receive the cape automatically the next time Minecraft: Bedrock Edition is played. No extra action is needed. 

    Will the cape travel with me across devices? 

    Yes. Because the item is tied to your Microsoft Account, it appears on every Bedrock platform on which you own Minecraft, whenever you sign in with that same account.

    I signed in but don’t see the cape in my inventory – what should I do? 

    First, give the system a few minutes: entitlement sync can take up to fifteen minutes at peak times. If it still hasn’t appeared, restart Minecraft (this forces an inventory refresh) and make sure you’ve logged in with the same Microsoft Account

    *Disclaimer: Minecraft: Bedrock Edition required (purchased separately). Internet and valid Microsoft account required. Limit 1 per MSFT account. Offer valid May 6th 2025 at 9:00 a.m. Daylight Savings Time (“PDT”) and ends on May 5th 2026 at 11:59 p.m. PDT Terms apply: https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/terms/account-sign-in-cape
