How to join a Minecraft server
Frequently asked questions
How do I choose a server for Minecraft Java?
Read listings to find a community on Minecraft Java. Explore, build and play with a community. Check the rules and the group’s play times.
Can I join with Java or Bedrock?
Check the editions on the listing. A Java address alone is not enough to join from Bedrock. If both editions are supported, use the address and, for Bedrock, the port for your edition. Use Minecraft Java and check the required version or modpack before copying the address.
How are servers listed and checked?
The selected sort determines the listing order. Online player counts come from status queries, without votes or paid ranking. The map shows an estimated connection IP country. Language filters use operator declarations, server settings and text, or information from the official website. The source is shown on the listing. Machine country does not determine the in-game language.
