What happens if I purchase the Hive+ upgrade without owning Hive+?
We strongly advise against using external websites to buy the upgrade if you do not already own Hive+, as you will not receive the Ultimate rank. In such cases, you'd need to contact Mojang to request a refund, which is not guaranteed.
