Win10 runs Bedrock, and does indeed have cross-play. That is, using the app version, and not the Java Edition.

According to HelenAngel, there are no intentions as of today to make java edition and bedrock cross-play. Nor are there any intention to stop maintaining the Java edition. If you hear otherwise, it's rumors and should be stopped.
