When you play Minecraft online, your username is on a public server and is visible to all your friends, so it’s the first thing that gets everyone’s attention. Being the most popular online game, most players like to show off their username along with their ability to play the game. This may be because it changes over time and after a certain amount of progress in the game, the Minecraft characters should be defined based on their traits.
Whatever the cause, changing your Minecraft username is rather simple if you just know how to do it.
