Minecraft Bedrock

Minecraft Bedrock server and consoles

On Windows, Android and iOS, your friends add your server with its address. On Xbox, PlayStation and Switch, the game does not offer to add a server: here is what works, and what we do not provide.

Who joins your server directly

On Windows, Android and iOS, the game's Servers tab lets you add a server with its IP address and port, shown on the panel's dashboard. All these players play together in the same world.

Consoles

On Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch, the Servers tab offers no button to add an address: it shows Mojang's partner servers. A console player therefore cannot type your server's address in the game.

The community has built workarounds. BedrockConnect, for example, changes the console's DNS to replace a partner server with a list of servers of your choice; other tools show the server in the Xbox friends list. They come neither from Mojang nor from us, and whether they work depends on the console, the network and game updates: we do not install them and cannot guarantee they work.

Choose who gets in

The panel's Players page manages the allowlist and the operators. With the Microsoft accounts setting (online-mode) on, every player must be signed in to their Microsoft account to join.

Which plan for your Bedrock server?

The same plans as on the Minecraft Bedrock page, with the same panel. You can change plan later.

  1. With friends

    A few players on PC and mobile

    Suggested: Bedrock Nano

    2 GB of RAM · €3.00 / month

    Order

  2. Small community

    A regular group and a growing world

    Suggested: Bedrock Micro

    4 GB of RAM · €5.00 / month

    Order

  3. Active community

    More players at once and a large world

    Suggested: Bedrock Mega

    8 GB of RAM · €7.50 / month

    Order

These suggestions are a guide: what you install matters as much as the player count. You can switch plans later.

Not directly: Minecraft on Xbox does not offer to add a server by its address. Community solutions such as BedrockConnect work around it; we do not provide them.

Same thing: the game offers no button to add a server there either, so a community solution is needed. Players on PC and mobile connect with the IP address and port.

Yes. Windows, Android and iOS all run Minecraft Bedrock and join the same server.

No, Java and Bedrock are two different versions of the game. To play with Minecraft Java, pick the Minecraft Java plan.
