MCBYT – Minecraft Migration is FINALLY Here… (migration + veteran cape news)

Migration is finally here boys and boy does that feel good and along with the long-awaited migration we also have some more news about the veteran capes that were leaked in my discord all those months ago now for those that don’t know migration is something that was announced by

Mojang near the end of 2020 and it basically consists of everybody needs to link their minecraft account to microsoft and if you don’t we’re going to disable your account but it’s okay because we’ll give you a cool cape it wasn’t exactly well received due to being forced instead of optional but

Hey cool cape that’s all that matters it was originally announced for early 2021 and it is now almost july so that ship has sailed but it has finally arrived for real no clickbait it has actually officially begun so for this episode of minecraft uncovered come with me as i

Teach you everything there is to know about minecraft migration alright let’s get straight into it starting with the actual migration i’m not gonna make you wait migration news first started rolling in around april when the mojing staff publicly mentioned a controlled migration test amongst the staff team and shortly

Thereafter a sort of beta testing program was opened semi-privately they basically created a google form for you to apply for migration and let a few people migrate if they had valuable highly sought after accounts that would greatly benefit from the increased security of a microsoft account technically i believe all that

Information was supposed to be private but since that pilot migration has since finished and actual migration has started i’m hoping i’ll be spared from the wrath of the mojang overlords but proper migration didn’t start until the evening of june 23rd when the migration faq was silently updated to

Show that they had in fact started migration naturally the account community was all over this and news spread pretty quickly so who can migrate well it seems to be picked at random to my knowledge there’s only been one person inside of the community who’s managed to migrate

Who i won’t identify out of respect for their privacy i’ve personally tried about 30 of my accounts a friend of mine tried 20 of his and another friend tried over a hundred none of us have had any success so this is clearly a very very small percentage of the minecraft

Player population and my guess is that they’ll slowly be increasing the amount of people that can migrate in each wave just to make it a little bit easier on their servers however while i don’t personally know anyone that’s migrated there have been a few people who got to

Migrate and showed it off on twitter one of which was d plays 18 who shared a few pictures of the process so if you are eligible to migrate this is what you’ll see a gray bar at the bottom of your minecraft launcher and a notice telling you it’s your lucky

Day and you can now migrate to a microsoft account clicking on a link will take you to the website where you can create and or link a microsoft account and once you’ve completed the move you’re all migrated the promised migration cape has seemingly not been implemented yet as we have yet to see

The cape show up on any of these migrated accounts but it should be coming very soon if normal players are getting the chance to migrate if you want a more in-depth explanation on how to migrate i’ve linked the official guide in the description of this video

Best of luck to anyone trying to and feel free to let me know if you find anything interesting along your journey you can join my discord and tell me there link in the description or in the comments if that’s easier i do read pretty much every comment i get but that’s about it

For migration oh but we aren’t done just yet no we’ve got another pretty big piece of news and that’s regarding minecraft veteran capes now if you don’t know what those are i suggest you watch my mojing is going wild video which explains in depth how they were found and what

They are but short answer is that there were some strings of text hidden deep inside the minecraft website that said you could get free veteran capes one for each year you’ve played minecraft now over the last few months interest and belief in veteran capes has slowly dwindled

We’ve had pretty much zero news about anything regarding them and the general consensus was that veteran capes were either cancelled or never meant to exist in the first place and that text we found was really just a poorly worded description of migration capes but i never really bought into that i

Know mojang’s team can be a bit messy but i feel like veteran capes wouldn’t have been officially added to the site in any way unless it was agreed upon and planned to happen at some point and that description was so far away from what a migration cape is that i was pretty

Convinced veteran capes were coming in some form or another turns out i was right sort of as soon as migration began all the wiki articles were updated and along with them a new one was created how to migrate your child’s mojing account to a microsoft account instructions for parent or guardian and

Right under step 1 is a picture containing what else but that exact same line of text we found all those months ago now officially displayed on the website of course that doesn’t mean veteran capes are going to come in whatever form we might have thought it could mean we get one cape

For the year we joined or it could mean we get multiple capes for every year that our account has existed but this is pretty hard evidence that veteran capes are coming not a random line of text hidden at the bottom of a json file in a web pack found through

Inspect element on the account info page a proper official picture on the minecraft wiki claiming that veteran capes are coming with migration except it’s not quite that simple it was for a little while but after the script was originally finished i had to come back and edit it because new information

And that new information is this a tweet from ined i hope i’m pronouncing that right the mojang account gatekeeper saying that the migration cape given out will be the same no matter what year you joined now obviously the migration cape and veteran capes are different but you would expect them to answer that

Question with at least some mention of the veteran capes if they existed right like migration capes will be the same for everyone but veteran capes will be unique to whatever year you registered your account in but he didn’t and the picture on the website ended up getting removed and the

Reddit post that originally let everyone know was silently deleted so frankly i’m just really confused and i don’t know what’s going on anymore i hope veteran capes will come i think veteran capes will come but this is very confusing and there’s a lot of conflicting info on it and pretty much

Everything mentioned in this video is subject to change so all i can say is let’s hope for the best and hopefully soon enough we’ll all be able to migrate and get some nice fresh capes that’s going to be it for the video yes i know it was very very short but i

Wanted to get this out pretty quickly without any fluff or relevant info and it also came out just two days after the last one which is not a lot of time for a video there are lots of videos in the works though i have two scripts and one outline done already

Not including this one of course and there are a few more that i’ve planned to come soon maybe including some collaborations we will see again more migration info in the description for those that are interested and yeah that’s all i’ve got to say so thanks for watching and have a good one peace You
