Minecraft is undoubtedly one of the most popular games in the world. After its release, Minecraft created a new kind of gaming genre called sandbox games where players could create, modify, or destroy their environment. Eventually, the game got developed for a multitude of platforms including Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, and more. However, even after these many years, the game has not been developed for Chrome OS. But there is nothing to worry as Chrome OS has Linux support. Now you can install and play Minecraft and many other Linux games on your Chromebook without much friction. So, let’s go ahead and find out the steps for Minecraft installation on Chromebook using Linux.
Install and Play Minecraft on Chromebook in 2021
Before we begin, there are a few things that I want to clarify. You can run Minecraft on Chromebook without moving to the Developer Mode and installing Crouton. Also, you can get it running on the Stable channel. The only thing you should keep in mind is that you need Linux support on your Chromebook.
School-issued Chromebooks will not able to run Minecraft unless your administrator has enabled Linux support for your system. Keep in mind, recently Google brought the ability to use Linux apps even for school Chromebooks, but again, it will depend on your school administrator.
1. Before moving ahead, make sure you have set up Linux on your Chromebook. To explain briefly, open the Settings page and click on “Linux (Beta)” on the left pane. Now, click on “Turn on”. Try to allot more space to Linux during the setup.
2. Once Linux is installed, open the Linux Terminal. Just press the search key on the keyboard and search for “terminal“. Now open it. You can also open the App Drawer and look for “Linux apps”. There, you will find “Terminal”.
3. Now, run the below command. This will update your Linux to the latest build.
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y
4. After updating the Linux build, download the Minecraft.deb file (Debian/Ubuntu) from the official website. After that, move the file to the “Linux files” section inside the Files app.
5. Now, double-click on the downloaded file and click on the “Install” button. Within a few minutes, Minecraft will be installed on your Chromebook.
6. Now to access Minecraft, press the Search key on the keyboard and search for “minecraft”. Finally, open “Minecraft Launcher”. You can also navigate to Linux apps in the App Drawer and open “Minecraft Launcher”.
7. Next, log in with your Mojang or Microsoft account.
8. After that, click on “Play Demo” at the bottom and it will start downloading the latest release and install the update itself. The app will close after the installation and will automatically reopen. In case, that does not happen, open “Minecraft Launcher” from the App Drawer manually.
9. Finally, Minecraft will open up on your Chromebook and will be ready to play. Simply click on “Play Demo World” and off you go to the gameplay.
10. The game runs fine with WASD key controls, and now mouse sensitivity is also quite good. However, if you want to adjust the sensitivity then open Options -> Mouse Settings and change the sensitivity to “Hyperspeed”. Now, you can play Minecraft on Chromebook smoothly and without any jitter.
11. Apart from that, make sure to enable the below flag if you want to lock the mouse pointer while playing Minecraft on Chromebook. Just copy it and paste it on the address bar of Chrome and hit enter. Now, enable it and restart your Chromebook.
chrome://flags/#exo-pointer-lock
12. In case you face any installation error then open the Terminal app from the App Drawer. After that, run the below Linux command to install the Java Development Kit. Finally, install the Minecraft.deb file normally from the Files app.
sudo apt-get install default-jdk -y
Enjoy Minecraft on Chromebook Without a Hitch
So that was our guide on how to install and play the popular Minecraft game on Chromebook. With the improved Linux (Beta), things seem to be much better now for Linux apps and Chrome OS games as a whole. And the best part is that you don’t need to make any changes to your Chromebook. Everything including the packages and dependencies is built into the Linux system.
Anyway, that is all from us. If you were able to play Minecraft on your Chromebook, do comment down below and let us know your gaming experience. Also, don’t forget to check out Chrome OS tips and tricks article to learn some awesome tips for your Chromebook.
Please help me.I need to get back on. TODAY
Hi,uh,I accidentlly deleted my account on my chromebook.Can you help me get back on?
IT IS AWESOME! THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!!!!
I got to the minecraft home page and i cant do anything, when i try to buy it it says that its not compattible. What do I do?
I already had Minecraft downloaded on my Chromebook but today when I went on the launcher it said “Launcher update: A new version of the Launcher is available. Please click here for more details.” I’m not sure how to download the update on Linux though. Could anyone help?
try running the sudo command again in step three maybe? :/
this article is bs, it will not run on all linux beta supported chromebooks. the 11 a for example will not install the app even after using all the commands in the article and even some “fixes” i found on other sites. it just doesnt work
What do you expect? Chromebooks are complete trash when it comes to playing games on them lol.
Hey so on my Chromebook on step 4 I couldn’t move my download to the Linux (beta) folder…. how do I fix that? Please I need some help. It’s just a block game but why is this so frustrating!!?? I’ve tried many other methods so I hope this one works. Phew sorry just needed to rant a bit.
the little kids in these comments lmao just get a cheap windows laptop chromebooks are pure trash
true lmaooo
I have a windows laptop and It runs fine Chromebooks are for the weak…
i got it up and running but it is very laggy, i could buy the full mode to see if it works, but i am scared that i just wasted 30 dollars on a game that is very laggy. my chromebook is also fully up to date ands i tired everything i could to get it to stop being laggy.
how do i play minecraft it doesit let me play and am in 2st grade
stop trying to play minecaft dunmass
I need help, I can not play with my siblings but I have a chrome and they have mac and windows, they can play with each other but I can not play with them, can you plz help
I can’t find my app drawer… I need help
if I’m not mistaken you press the search key then swipe up.
Attention all youths in the comment thread! When you cannot install certain dependencies, it is often a software or hardware incompatibility on your system. Software side is fixable and will require more Linux research. Minecraft may lag or run slow because the processor or graphics card (CPU or GPU) is incapable of running it, as this is very common for mid-range Chromebooks. Lastly, older Chromebooks won’t be able to run Minecraft at all because of its older Chrome OS version. You may need to buy a newer model, but I recommend buying a cheap Windows laptop and installing Xubuntu 20.10 (Or Xubuntu 20.04 LTS if you want extended support). Thank you and regards, DotMatrix.
i cant play full minecraft i can play it in survival and foe 100 minutes its sooo boring its like the trial on windows
thats because youre trying to use the demo, you still have to buy the game.

Hi. I have exactly same problem. Did you find a solution?
I have exactly the same problem. did you find a solution?
have u found a solution yet, i have the same problem
im just getting started on mincraft
I have but I don’t have an account then I go to make one and it says I need to get mincraft
my advice: just get a new computer
we look this up because we dont want to
You need to get a laptop that isn’t a junk chromebook. All you have to do is get a like $130 windows pc with 32 gb of storage to play minecraft and indie steam games. A cheap windows pc should always be considered when buying a first computer and your parents only got a chromebook because they are cheap.
I tried this on my little sisters computer and it worked for the most part, but every time we try to open the app, the icon at the taskbar has the loading symbol on it and it just crashes. Any idea how to fix it?
restart the chromebook and if it doesnt work you will have to remove linux and reinstall
I got everything to work after a ton of struggle, but one I click to play, it downloads data, and said there was an error. After the error downloading that file, it won’t even try again, and now it won’t even open. ??? What’s going on ???
read how to open
No clue having the same problem
guys it worked for me but the lag is way too much, is there any thing I can do fo rhits
Upgrade your chrome book. It likely isn’t lag and instead a hardware issue. Lower end chrome books usually have poor specs that can’t handle games. Try turning down your graphics settings.
well if you can`t download it well um uh i dont know and when i tried to download a mickey mouse game for my sister but it does not work hay do you have minecraft on your phone well if not download it on your phone but you have to have internet to download it hmm hay i got no that will not work hay it will work anyways thaire is this app my mom has it so you have a wish list on my wish list is: a nintendo switch hay is is um this is Beebom well i will chat with you guys later k k bye
you know that i love mincraft but thare is one problem i cant play it😭 whait you all are haveing problems to? you know im im im 8😺 oh and it said 504 Bad gateway🤬 did anyone get on minecraft?
you know that i love mincraft but thare is one problem i cant play it😭 whait you all are haveing problems to? you know im im im 8😺
you know that i love mincraft but thare is one problem i cant play it😭
First of all, it is important to know the rules of online speech. Which includes no spamming or repetitive necro-posting. Bad gateway 50 often means that the loading on the website timed out. This is a bandwidth issue, as your internet didn’t respond fast enough to the website.
Meech hi
me too i want minecraft ok
I also have a problem, the same one when downloading it displays an error message. Is this a problem specific to my model of Chromebook? (Lenovo c330)?
Didn’t work for me. I enabled Linux, moved the .deb file to its folder, get a bunch of errors:
“The following packages have unmet dependencies:
minecraft-launcher: Depends: default-jre but it is not installable
Depends: libasound2 (>= 1.0.23) but it is not installable
Depends: libatk1.0-0 (>= 1.12.4) but it is not installable
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.11) but it is not installable
Depends: libcairo2 (>= 1.6.0) but it is not installable”
etc.
I ran the sudo commands, but errors remain. Any suggestions?
same
It worked but I dont have a minecaft account so
me too
i was able to download it but for some reason it wont let me open it
lets go
i can’t download this won’t let me
it’s so 🤬 dum
I cant do this on my school chrome book i cant turn on linux apps
okay for one you shouldn’t be trying to get Minecraft on your school Chromebook it for learning not to play minecraft
shut the hell up nerd.
It is very immature to respond in this matter. Beebom was meant to support the community on even the most bizarre problems. Diego, I suggest trying a Linux distro on another computer. I suggest Xubuntu 20.10. You need to learn Linux however. This is why age restrictions should be applied to forums.
lmao agree
shut up
You can try minecraft education edition
no shit schools wont let you download linux on there school chromebooks
if you get linux on a new chromebook does it get rid of the virus protection?
if you get Linux on a Chromebook does it get rid of virus protection this way
Don’t let Chromebook ads deceive you, as it has no virus protection. It says that because Chrome OS barely has any viruses available to the user. However they do exist and should avoid. Also, I recommend dual booting as the benefits of a whole Linux distro can help. Xubuntu 20.10 is my go to for low end laptops.
does this get rid of the virus protection?
its saying some error has occured
That means it worked.
what do you mean that means it works
Nah, I don’t think it does, but you do seem paranoid, mister. Doin something ur not supposed to be doin in skool?
Do I purchase minecraft on the chromebook first? I have a log in on my apple device. Will that work on the chromebook after doing this?
i want minecraft
it keeps bringing me to this page:but this page is just a screenshot/home/chronos/u-fda2f93e869bfb9cfbbd8c619bbf4a27e083eaee/MyFiles/Downloads/Screenshot%202020-10-01%20at%2010.11.29%20AM.png
We cannot see this as it is the path to the picture on your system. Please upload the file to a place like imgur.com so we can see it.
hi, so i uploaded it to my files but i never saw a “minecraft launcher” in the files, i keep refreshing the page but its not showing up, so im not sure what to do now
i like mincraft
its a bit laggy, take that back very laggy but besides that this is awsome.
How do I find my files?
you go to your setings then click lunix files
Is it possible to use a controller with that set up?
yes vert possible bluetooth it
Everything works fine for us. Is it possible to use a controller??? Doesn’t look it is… Thank you
my chromebook wont load the install details when you try to install it
I got it working great on my kids chromebooks, but I can’t get LAN to work… can anyone help me out?
In order to use LAN, the following should be true.
1: Both users should be on separate minecraft accounts.
2: Both users should be connected to the same wifi.
3: Both users should be using the same edition (java on chromebooks and most computers, bedrock is xbox, ps, pe, etc.)
4: If those don’t work, I would recommend searching for tips as to how to use LAN.
i can help
so what do you need
works like charm
I can’t do it ti is blocked
shool computer? yay its gonna be blocked
I have zero experience with the confusing ChromeOS, but this was easier than pie, thanks!
hold up i don’t have a (Linux)teb in settings so how would i do it without Linux here is a question is Linux neccasary
you wante to install in your pc windows 7 windows 10 or linux
Yes Linux is absolutely necessary
lol nice
Can anyone prove this actually works before I spend 30 bucks on minecraft and it not work
I can sell you a mc acc for $5 if you’d like- i have a bunc of alts
Isn’t that illegal
If you buy the full version for 30 dollars will it work the same way the demo does?
obviouly not, you get permission for lan servers, different game modes, and multiplayer will be a option
Yes
noobs im 13 but i managed to do it
i cant put on the linux support i dont have the icon.
do i really need to buy the game if i have it on my xbox? :/
no
please can you tell me how to download minecrft in google pixel
google play store lmao
Is there a way to play the bedrock edition because I dont have java edition purchased?
You can install it through a flatpak
hi room1826

how do you access the .minecraft files? (resourcepacks etc.)
once you load up the game, simply click open resourcepacks folder. I recommend getting the nautilus file manager for this. Just look at the top (where it shows the path) click back a notch and pin that folder.
After I add Minecraft.deb file to the Linux file and i rty to install minecraft it says that i can’t install it
i have the same
same
I got everything to work, except for one big problem. it only lets me open up the java demo. I purchased the game from for xbox, and again purchased it from Microsoft for my desktop computer. but now i’m realizing the only thing you can do on Chromebook is download Mojang’s java demo version or… again… purchases their java version. I don’t want to buy the same game a third time!
Isn’t there a simpler way to get the same game I already purchased across these devices?
you purchased it for the wrong device, your mistake, own up to it dude
What does it say when you run “arch”?
I got so close but after the final command it says I need to free up some space when I have almost empty space. Oh well
wait are you Alfy huh Hey alfredo
A bit laggy, but i hope that my chromebook will get used to it.
You can download optifine with a quick Google/ YouTube search which greatly improves your performance
every time i go to the terminal and try it, it says “Wrong architecture ‘amd64’ — Run dpkg –add-architecture to add it and update afterwards” what do i do for this?
My Chromebook is cheap, but it’s also very new; I still think I’m out of luck. I followed the steps, and even successfully tried step 7 to try and get it to work, but to no success.
Even after trying step 7, in step 2 there is no apps under Linux. I can move Minecraft.deb to Linux, but not in apps because it doesn’t exist for me. When I move it to Linux, I get the 3 data/debian/control files like someone else also reported. I tried running the Deb file directly in the terminal like you suggested, but also got a bunch of the “Depends… it is not installable” error messages.
I’m guessing there is nothing left to try here and I’m just out of luck?
I can’t get Linux thing
It doesnt let me load minecraft only the launcher
i had the same problem dude dw
Downloaded the Minecraft.deb for the chromebook operating in Linux but having trouble logging into Xbox Live and have them communicate so my kids can access their friends realms.
The Java version can not access Minecraft Realms.
i didnt have minecraft.deb and i tried to get it but it wouldn’t lemme press add.
When I download minecraft.deb, move it to Linux files, and double click it i do not get the “install” screen, but instead it opens a folder that contains the files data.tar.xz, debian-binary, and control.tar.gz
In that case, you can run the Deb file through the Linux Terminal. Open the Terminal and run sudo apt-get install ./Minecraft.deb
Make sure the name is correct as it’s case sensitive.
i got it downloaded and it works but i can’t turn around 360o. when my curser gets to the edge of my screen my player stops moving. can anyone help?
enable this flag:
chrome://flags/#exo-pointer-lock
I did that and it still didn’t work
Go to Chrome://flags and search for “cursor lock for Linux applications” then enable it and restart your device
it doesn’t work for me, it says all these things are not install-able. i tried every step, it just doesn’t seem to work
doenst work for me minecraft doesnt start chrome os 83
It worked for me on our 2 Chromebooks, but I haven’t been able to get Open to LAN for Multiplayer to work.
Has anyone got Open to LAN + Multiplayer working?
Any tips?
I’m having the same problem, did you ever figure this out???
Is this the actual Minecraft Java or is it only designed for the Chromebook?
It’s the actual Minecraft Java designed for Linux which runs quite well on Chromebooks. Do note that if you have an Intel-powered Chromebook then Minecraft will run without any issues.
Thanks, just checking if I can still play Minecraft if I brought a Chromebook.
me 2
you suck
Just an addition that may help some: I’ve been getting the same errors when loading Minecraft with the linux beta on a Lenovo Chrombook. From what I can find out, it also depends on your processor, if your chromebook is ARM based, then it’s significantly more difficult to load. So if you’re getting errors, it may be because of this. (I have yet to find how to get ARM processors working with Minecraft
please let me know if you figure this out cause i have the same issue
Why does it keep kicking me out of the game when I go into my world?
can u add friends?
when do i tye the code in cause i can’t downlaod minecraft all it says is error and this is a part of the erro message
Depends: libxrender1 but it is not installable

i am having this problem also.
yea i have this problem two
it didnt work for me because i need to free up space xp
It works, but I think I actually have to buy Minecraft first XD
I turned on Linux, downloaded it, downloaded the Minecraft.deb, installed with Linux, and it says an error occurred during the installation. I went to the terminal and ran the commands, yet it does NOT work. Help me, please.
same
same here. ;(
mine says
“The following packages have unmet dependencies:
minecraft-launcher: Depends: default-jre but it is not installable
Depends: libasound2 (>= 1.0.23) but it is not installable
Depends: libatk1.0-0 (>= 1.12.4) but it is not installable
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.11) but it is not installable
Depends: libcairo2 (>= 1.6.0) but it is not installable”
and so on with similar errors
The Install button is grey it is blue on there he got the launcher without telling us hoW!!!!
he waited for it to turn blue….
I can’t find the Linux files on my Chromebook settings.
Please help me I checked everywhere ????????????
and is it true??? does it really work???
idk if it works or not yet, but look on your files app instead of your settings, under downloads i think. 🙂
now all i need is to find out how to get skins on the app.
I don’t think you can
Good stuff
that’s really helpful
Installing jdk didn’t work to fix install at first so removed and reinstalled linux after system updates, which then let me move to linux folder and run install, and now coming up with “default-jre is not installable” – help? 🙁
I installed it and it plays fine. However, I cannot get rid of the bar at the top with the minimise/close buttons which means I cannot look all the way up and I cannot look 360 degrees, it gets stopped and I can’t turn anymore. Does anybody else have this problem/ know how to fix it? Minecraft is in full screen and this still happens
You Have To Keep Pressing ESC and put your cursour at the oppisite side of where you are looking :/
You can go into the options in Minecraft, go to video and select ‘Fullscreen: OFF’ to turn it on. For the 360 degree problem, I just open my inventory and put my mouse back in the middle.
There is a way to fix the issue with not being able to turn around after a certain point. I just did it today on omy son’s chromebrook. Open up your chrome browser then in the address bar go to: chrome://flags
Next, enable this flag: exo-pointer-lock
Once this is done, restart your computer and relaunch minecraft.
Enjoy!
for every one out there do not type yes in the terminal it breaks the terminal
i have the minecraft Deb in my linux files, but it won’t install, so i did the
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install default-jdk
in linux launcher, and tried to install again but it wouldn’t work.
PLZ HELP I WANNA PLAY MINECRAFT
Minecraft just keeps crashing what am I doing wrong
I had to go to the console and
sudo apt-get upgrade
To fix some OpenJDK installation issue.
How do you use it without the terminal? I’m kinda confused.
You don’t need to use the Terminal, unless you are facing any installation issue.
I’m getting a bunch of “but it is not installable” messages when i try to install minecraft to linux.
Move the file to Linux section in the Files app and try installing.
how
it workes. It said installation error but I just reinstalled it without using the terminal and it worked.
what do you mean you reinstalled it without using the terminal
Run the .deb file again
This worked for me on an Acer Chromebook 14. No developer mode required. Thank you!
I did all the steps but an error happened so i typed in the commands and it still dosent work, the fie is in the linux terminal, whats going on?
i did everything after it gave me an error but im still getting the error even after all of it.
this is a child how do you do it i have tried for five hour and got no where
your Chromebook possibly doesn’t support Linux beta
it says unable to locate package openjdk-8-jdk. Even after i did
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install default-jdk
and overall it says error while installing please help
Move the downloaded file (Minecraft.deb) to the Linux section inside the Files app and then run the program. It will install thereafter without any issue.
Only if you get any error then run sudo apt-get install default-jdk to install Java Development Kit. And don’t run the openjdk command as the package name has changed.
What if my chromebook won’t let me move the file to the Linux section?
it says that thers not enough space. wtf
Try to resize the disk space of Linux partition on your Chromebook. Open Settings -> Linux (beta) -> Disk size. Keep in mind, you may have to move to the Linux Developer channel to be able to access this Settings page.
can you get the full version without buying it?
No.
it says unable to open package, so uh, what now, um, did i do it right?
Move the downloaded file (Minecraft.deb) to the Linux section inside the Files app and then run the program. It will install thereafter without any issue.
If you are getting the error on the Linux Terminal then run the below commands one by one.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install default-jdk
Press “Y” to continue the installation.
how do u do it
Linux and Android are only supported on some chromebooks, otherwise they’re hidden.
For Me, There is no Linux beta thingy. I updated my Chrome device but no, I failed
Only new models of Chromebooks have it. Not an updated version
For Me, There is no Linux beta
Sadly, you can’t install Minecraft on your Chromebook.
its not working. it says Unable to locate package open-jdk-8-jdk
Run the below commands one by one. Press “Y” to continue the installation.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install default-jdk
you still have to buy the full version like anybody else would have to, you don’t just get it for free so of course it’ll be on the demo mode until you buy it.
It’s on demo mode noob!!!!!!!! In twenty four hours it will reset itself dummy! Check your facts! And it never worked for me either
lmao kid do you know what is a noob? Maybe your dumb brain broke and you couldn’t download it.
The game never opens and constantly crashes
Try installing the Java Development Kit. Run the below commands one by one and then press “Y” to continue the installation.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install default-jdk
I did the linux command and it worked until this:
Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information… Done
E: Unable to locate package openjdk-8-jdk
Run the below commands one by one. Press “Y” to continue the installation.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install default-jdk
I reset the linux thingy now but now every 15 minutes it would crash and every 2 minutes I would lag severely :C.
I am running Minecraft on Chrome Dev and it’s working fine. Maybe move to the Developer channel?
it’s say the app is available in your terminal and I don’t know where to play, please help.
Open the App Drawer where you have all your Android and Web apps. There you will find a Linux folder (generally on the first page). Open it and click on “Minecraft Launcher”.
I can’t seem to open the launcher back up. It says in the notifications that there is an app in the shelf but it doesn’t show. It only shows the terminal. It successfully downloaded and I tried the code on top. It doesn’t work. If anyone knows, what is the code thingy?
Open the App Drawer where you have all your Android and Web apps. There you will find a Linux folder (generally on the first page). Open it and click on “Minecraft Launcher”.
i was able to download it but for some reason it wont let me open it
its working well, but my mouse is still working as a mouse in the background, so when i look far enough left or right it pops up the other ui for the chroe book. Like if i look up itll pop up the minimize and exit button
I tried this on my little sisters computer and it worked for the most part, but every time we try to open the app, the icon at the taskbar has the loading symbol on it and it just crashes. Any idea how to fix it?
Didn’t work for us either, error during installation and no place to put the linex command
