Host either edition, so friends on PC, console and phone can all play.
Protected from attacks
Every server sits behind DDoS protection, so an attack doesn't take your world offline.

We save a copy of your world daily. Roll back with one button if something goes wrong.

Built for a steady 20 ticks
Minecraft updates the whole world 20 times a second. Each update is a tick, and each one has 50 milliseconds to finish. When hardware can't keep up, ticks run late and you feel it as lag.
One second on a healthy server: 20 ticks, 50 ms each.

Questions
Which plan do I need?
Use the plan finder above. For a vanilla world with a few friends, Pebble is enough. If you want plugins or mods, start with Cobble. You can move up later without losing anything.
Can I change plan later?
Yes. Upgrade or downgrade from your account. Your world, settings and address stay the same.
Can I bring a world I already have?
Yes. Upload it through the file manager or SFTP and set it as the active world.
Do my friends need anything special to join?
No. They need the same edition of the game and your server address.
