How is this version different than the one I already own?

Controls – Bedrock Edition has the option to switch to a controller for movement or touch controls if on a mobile device.

Runs Smooth – Bedrock Edition does not require powerful computers or devices to run and will often run more smoothly than Java Edition.

Cross-Play – Bedrock players can play with any other Bedrock player online.

Marketplace – Add-Ons or Skin packs can be purchased from the marketplace to change your gameplay experience.

Multi-Platform – You can play Bedrock Editions on Minecraft console, mobile and PC.
