Minecraft Bedrock Edition has a special in-game marketplace where players can browse and purchase all kinds of officially licensed add-ons for the game. These add-ons greatly enhance the gameplay experience and allow users to explore new maps, worlds, skins, texture packs, and more.

However, most of them cost some Minecoins that can be bought with real-life money. Although buying them is a good way to support Mojang and the creators of these add-ons, most players would love to get free add-ons to simply download and play. Amongst loads of paid add-ons, some are completely free of cost and worth checking out.
