How the Minecraft Player Age Demographics Tool works:
This view shows 100%-stacked shares of players by age bucket for each region (≤13, 14–17, 18–24, 25–34, 35+). Toggle Scope (Global/AMER/EMEA/APAC), Platform (All/Java/Bedrock), and the Window (30/90/365d). Switch between percent and Absolute MAU to compare preferences vs. real audience size. The heatmap uses the same data to highlight where each age group is relatively strong.
Scenario: Max targets by age
Max wants teen-friendly streams. He filters to regions with higher 14–17 and 18–24 shares, schedules uploads for their peak hours, and avoids long-form tutorials in areas with lower 25–34/35+ mix.

Young vs. mature regions – what the shares really mean
Shares show who prefers what age-wise, not how big a market is. Latin America is the youngest mix overall and leads in 18–24 share; Scandinavia skews older. Use the table to spot where teen/young-adult content fits best and where long-form/tutorial formats perform better.

Content angles by age
Teen/18–24 regions → fast challenges, short tips, creator collabs. Older regions → longer tutorials, technical farms, SMP documentary style.
Java vs Bedrock, PC vs Mobile – age skews that matter
Bedrock (especially on mobile/console) tends to skew younger; Java on PC pulls older players. Use this matrix to match edition, device and format to the dominant age buckets.
Age bucket | Best edition | Best platform | Format to ship | Monetization hint |
---|---|---|---|---|
≤13 | Bedrock 🧱 | Mobile/Console 📱🕹️ | Starter guides, templates, safe realms | Low-price packs, parent-friendly notes |
14–17 | Bedrock ↔ Java | Console/PC 🕹️🖥️ | Challenges, PvP minigames, shorts | Cosmetics, season passes |
18–24 | Java ☕ | PC 🖥️ | Modded SMP, speedrun tips, tech farms | Server ranks, creator bundles |
25–34 | Java ☕ | PC 🖥️ | Long tutorials, world downloads | Premium maps, patron tiers |
35+ | Mixed | PC/Console 🖥️🕹️ | Relaxed survival, family realms | One-time packs, QoL utilities |
Share isn’t size
A region can have a high teen share but fewer total teens than a bigger, older region. Always cross-check with MAU before scaling servers or ad spend.
How the Minecraft Player Age Demographics Tool handles windows & filters
Use 30d for “right now”, 90d for seasonal swings (holidays, update cycles), and 365d for strategy. Platform and edition filters rebuild the shares for the selected audience; switching to Absolute MAU multiplies share × region MAU to estimate headcount.
