Prison Minecraft Servers

Use the edition named in your game or launcher. Java Edition runs on Windows, macOS and Linux; Bedrock Edition is available on Windows, mobile and consoles. Windows can run either edition, so your device alone does not tell us which you play. Match the edition and version accepted by the server.

Copy the listing's Java address. In Minecraft: Java Edition, open Multiplayer, then Add Server or Direct Connection. Paste the address into Server Address; keep a port suffix if one is shown. Save the entry and select Join Server. Copying here prepares the address; it does not connect your game.

On supported Windows and mobile clients, open Play, then Servers and Add Server. Enter a name, the listing's Bedrock host in Server Address and its separately listed port in Port. Save or play using the available control. Console versions limit server access to featured servers and do not offer the same external Add Server flow.

Choose a listing that explicitly supports crossplay, then use the published connection for each edition. Two addresses alone do not establish that players share a world. Check the server's instructions for supported versions, account linking or other requirements; a Java address is not automatically a Bedrock connection.

Ranks often unlock new mines or parts of the server, but the exact rewards and costs vary. Look at the progression guide to see whether you need currency, tasks or other milestones. Also check what happens after the final rank, particularly if the server offers a prestige system.

Different servers reset different things. A season change might clear currency and ranks, while a prestige action may restart only part of your progression. Read which tools, upgrades, plots and purchases carry over. If the listing does not explain this, look for a current reset policy before starting.

Use a version the listing accepts and read its joining requirements. A modded server may need an exact pack release, loader and additional mods. A feature supplied by a server plugin may not need client mods. Any version means this directory has no version filter selected, not that every server accepts every Minecraft release.

Confirm your edition, spelling of the host, listed port and accepted game version. Read whitelist or modpack instructions and check the listing's status timestamp; status can change after a check. Also check your Minecraft multiplayer permissions and the server's own support. Do not change security or platform restrictions to bypass an unavailable connection option.

You can browse, copy addresses, read these answers and use public creative tools without a website account. Minecraft multiplayer still has its own account, platform and server requirements. Saving favorites across sessions and using account features require sign-in here; a website account does not grant access to a whitelisted Minecraft server.

Eligible sponsored slots appear before the directory and are labeled. Sponsorship is placement, not a review or a promise of quality. Recommended results consider approved artwork and current two-week votes; All-time Votes is a separate lifetime count. Favorites save listings to your account. Reviews and reactions are separate community features, and none of these actions confirms a Minecraft join.
