Our newest feature on the Ender platform, Play Dates, pairs your child up with another member of the Minecraft or Roblox Club automatically to help kids meet others in the club and make friends! This match-making feature pairs kids with similar interests, ages, gender, or play levels and is all done automatically on the platform.
Using Play Dates, kids will be paired together to play in a private play session on a secure space during a designated time and day in the Club once a week. As an example, Play Dates can pair together female Minecraft players; younger players or a beginner Minecraft player with a fellow beginner to explore with each other. The possibilities for matching are endless!
Our goal is to help your kid make friends while playing their favorite games and our Play Dates feature helps to make that possible.
📆 Play Date sessions occur every Saturday between 5 - 6 PM CT in the Minecraft Club.
