Since its initial release in 2020, the game has received regular updates and downloadable content. So it’s no surprise that Mojang listened to its fans and added this coveted feature. Currently, the game is available on PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC. With new cloud backup features, users can back up their data to Mojang and Microsoft servers.

Another great benefit of this new feature is that players can log in from any device and pick up where they last left off rather than having to start a new save.
