Wait this wasn’t already a thing? Was it Microsoft just delaying the PS5 version or Sony with their weird anti cross platform behaviour holding it back.

I thought the point of Bedrock edition was to have it accessible on basically anything that can run the game

I’m confused. I remember when they shitcanned Xbox One version in favour Bedrock which was a buggy mess. Strategically they wanted everyone to play together which made sense and Bedrock progressed. This feels a bit like a betrayal. I guess values go out of the window when there is enough money on the table.
