If you didn't own one or both games already, or if you're playing Minecraft or Minecraft Dungeons through the Windows 10 / Xbox Game Pass for PC version, this won't affect that.

You still need to purchase both games separately.The Minecraft Unified Launcher reads save information from the same place as the old Minecraft Dungeons launcher, so you're Minecraft Dungeons saves will not be affected. If you're concerned about other changes being made here, this is what you need to know: Starting today, players will no longer be able to play Minecraft Dungeons through the old standalone launcher, and will instead need to use the freshly updated Minecraft Unified Launcher.

This change has been available to many people for some time now, but today marks the end of the old Minecraft Dungeons launcher. The Minecraft Unified Launcher is a free update that is finishing its rollout to all players today, and allows players to access both Minecraft: Java Edition and Minecraft Dungeons from the same place, with both Mojang and Microsoft Accounts. As of today, the latter is no longer an option, as the Minecraft: Java Edition and Minecraft Dungeons launchers are being unified. Minecraft Dungeons is available on PC alongside other platforms like Xbox, PS4, Switch, and Xbox Cloud Gaming (Project xCloud), and can be accessed through either Xbox Game Pass for PC or its own dedicated launcher.

The old Minecraft Dungeons launcher can no longer access the game, requiring players to use the Unified Launcher.

That means you can access and play both games from the same launcher, as well as switch between different accounts.

With a new update rolling out today to everyone today, the Minecraft: Java Edition launcher is now unified with Dungeons.Minecraft: Java Edition and Minecraft Dungeons both have their own launchers that are required on PC.
