Apple buys Minecraft.

I don't think they would mess with the game too much, but people would be complaining a tonnnn. I'd assume some changes with the launcher as well as some special features for Apple products running Minecraft. Microsoft has really pushed this CrossPlay thing though so the game shouldn't be pulled from other consoles/platforms.

There's no way Apple would purchase it anyways. They want to lock you into their ecosystem so a game that is CrossPlatform would never work. Maybe as marketing material for Apple Arcade or something I guess but not much else.
