In Minecraft Bedrock beta and preview version 26.0.25's patch notes, Mojang revealed the new Party System for the game.

This is essentially a feature where players can create lobbies, invite their friends, and play together. It is a similar party/lobby system present in many multiplayer games like PUBG, CSGO, COD, Battlefield, etc. Players open the game, create a party, and then jump into a server or a world in Minecraft.

According to patch notes, the leader of the party can invite other players. Then, the leader can enter a world and the rest of the party members will follow.

To create a party, players need to open the social tab on the top-right corner of the main menu, then click on the party logo to create one. After this, they can invite others to the party, then enter a world.

Since this is the first iteration of the party system in Minecraft, it is not without issues. In the ibxtoycat's video provided above, it is clearly shown that even though the Minecraft creator was the party leader, other members in the party are in other worlds which they chose.

Furthermore, the party system has its own settings in the settings tab, but it is bugged and can sometimes softlock players in the settings.

Another issue is that though the party system is in Minecraft Bedrock beta and preview 26.0.25, it is not be available on every platform. As of now, it is not available on PC, but can be used in PlayStation. If a PlayStation player sends a party invite, however, the PC players will be able to see the invite and accept.

It is safe to say that Mojang will be working hard to fix all the issues related to the party system and make it ready for full release on every platform for the next update.
