Featured Servers

An image of all featured Servers in the Bedrock Edition

Featured servers are community servers for Bedrock Edition, which are partnered with Mojang Studios and are accessible from the in-game server list. In the console versions, they are the only servers accessible besides Realms. Although the Bedrock Edition lacks the Mini Games of the Legacy Console Edition, featured servers can have their own minigames to play online. Featured servers require a Microsoft account[1] and a paid online multiplayer subscription service on consoles only. However, they have microtransactions that can be purchased from their own sections of the Marketplace.

Featured servers were first added as part of 1.2.0, the Better Together Update. There are currently five featured servers and Mojang Studios plans to add more in the future. Server owners with registered business identities can apply for the partner program. Mojang Studios provides partnered servers with backend support.[1]

Safety[]

Xbox network is a social network for gamers, and servers require the player to have an Microsoft account. Players can Add, Mute, Block and, Report Players from the pause menu upon selecting a players' profile. The server partners work with a team of volunteers to keep an eye out for bad behavior, including bullying and cheating, and help report issues. Each server partner includes their own expanded word filter list to make their server experience friendly for all ages. At Mojang Studios' request, all official server partners have removed private messaging, including the /tell /msg /whisper commands, to allow more thorough moderation across all parts of the server.[3]

Language support[]

All featured servers automatically detect your language by the language set in the settings menu. Some servers may have additional ways to change your language in-game specifically for the server the player is on.
