- Ability to block chat rooms and invitations.
If players don't migrate from their Mojang to Microsoft's by March 10 then nothing is lost. Of course, they won't be able to access the game, but the transfer option itself still remains and will be waiting to be used.

- Microsoft provides a cape reward for transfer.
- The transfer of s took place gradually, due to the large number of players.
- After a successful "migration" the Mojang was no longer needed.
- Also, players who own Minecraft Legacy were able to seamlessly transfer their s.
