Minecraft Mod: Add Bedrock Features into Minecraft Java with the Bedrockify Mod

Minecraft comes in two main versions: the widely used Bedrock Edition, available on consoles (Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch), PC, and mobile, and the Java Edition, which is exclusive to PC and Mac. While the core gameplay is similar between the two, there are a few distinct features that set them apart, with each version having something unique the other doesn’t.

Though most differences can be overlooked, some Bedrock features are too fun or useful to miss. Mojang Studios may take their time creating a unified version of the game, but thankfully, you don’t have to wait. There’s a mod that lets you combine the best of both worlds now.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to bring all of Bedrock’s features into Minecraft Java using the Bedrockify mod.

What is the Bedrockify Mod for Minecraft?

To use this mod, you’ll need the Java Edition of Minecraft, as Bedrock doesn’t support mods. Bedrock Edition only allows add-ons, which have limited functionality compared to full mods. Before diving into the mod's features, let's go over how to install Bedrockify.

How to Install the Bedrockify Mod:

1. Head over to the mod's official page on CurseForge and download the latest version of the Bedrockify zip file that matches your game version.

2. Once downloaded, keep the file somewhere easy to access.

3. On your Windows home screen, press Win + R, type “%APPDATA%” in the Run box, and press Enter.

4. In the folder that opens, find and open the “.minecraft” folder.

5. Look for a folder named “mods.” If it doesn’t exist, create one.

6. Move the Bedrockify zip file into the “mods” folder. Make sure you have the Curse mod loader installed to activate it.

7. Open Minecraft using the CurseForge app, and you’re ready to go.
