Minecraft Bedrock Server Hosting

Bedrock Edition is the version shipped on Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, iOS, Android and the Microsoft Store, and it speaks a different network protocol than Java Edition. A Bedrock server accepts Bedrock clients only, so plan around which edition your group actually owns before you order.

If your friends play the Java launcher with Fabric or Forge modpacks, use our separate Minecraft Java hosting page instead. Everything here targets Bedrock's own dedicated server build, its behavior pack system, and the server.properties keys that Bedrock exposes rather than Java's plugin ecosystem.

Add-ons live inside the world itself. Upload the unzipped pack folders into behavior_packs and resource_packs with the panel file manager or an SFTP client, then list their UUIDs and versions in the world's world_behavior_packs.json file so Bedrock loads them at boot.

The panel keeps that loop short. Stop the server from the live console, edit or replace files, restart, and watch the console output confirm each pack. Automatic daily backups hold ten rolling slots, so a broken pack list never costs you the world you spent a month building.

One address serves the whole group. Console players add the server under the Servers tab, mobile players use the same host and port, and Windows players join from the same list, all without a Realms subscription and without a per-device player cap.

Pick a location near the majority of your group. A Dallas or Ashburn server keeps most of North America under manageable ping, while Frankfurt or Brussels serves European players better, and player management tools in the panel let you ban or whitelist gamertags as the community grows.
