Bedrock edition is written in C++ and does not use C#.


Oh, didn’t know that, thanks !


If it were, targeting all platforms would have been fairly easy (assuming it would still rely on OpenGL), sometimes just specifying RID e.g. `linux-arm64`.


They could target Linux fine with their C++ code, they actually have secret builds for Linux for Marketplace creators (they have been leaked occasionally) but they don’t allow the general public to use them

There is an unofficial Linux launcher that can run the Android build


One of the nice side effects of not playing video games anymore is I don't have to touch anything from Microsoft with a 10' pole.
