In this guide we’ll walk you through some of the very best Minecraft servers for 1.19, the latest version of Minecraft. Each of these servers offers a different Minecraft experience, so you can have a read through what each one offers and join whichever server is best for you. To join a Minecraft server, all you need to do is copy the Server IP Address text, and then in Minecraft’s Multiplayer menu select Add Server and paste the text you copied into the Server Address box. Give the server a name, click Done, and join the server. Now let’s take a look at the very best Minecraft 1.19 servers on offer.
The best Minecraft servers for 1.19:
Hypixel Complex Gaming TheArchon MCCentral JartexNetwork Blockdrop Network MineSuperior WilderCraft Applecraft The Seed DatBlock CubeCraft
Hypixel
Server IP Address: mc.hypixel.netGame modes: Survival, Creative, Skyblock, Hunger Games, Minigames Okay, let’s get the obvious out of the way; after all, how could we have a Minecraft servers list without talking about Hypixel, the venerable titan of Minecraft servers? Whether you’re interested in PvP and competitive Minecraft or a more relaxed and independent survival experience, Hypixel has about a dozen different modes for you to choose from, all presented through an easy-to-use inventory interface. Whatever kind of Minecraft player you are, whether you want to spend your time fighting players, fighting mobs like Slimes, mining for Diamonds, or creating fantastic Minecraft builds, you’ll find something to love at Hypixel. That’s what brings in tens of thousands of players day after day.
Complex Gaming
Server IP Address: top.mc-complex.comGame modes: Pixelmon, Survival, Factions, Creative Complex Gaming is often found at the top of many 1.19 Minecraft server lists by player count, often housing thousands of concurrent players. It’s a wildly popular series of servers which focuses primarily on various Pixelmon offerings, so if you’re interested in catching, training, fighting, and trading, then Complex Gaming is an obvious choice for you. But as well as Pixelmon, this server also offers a variety of survival, creative, factions, and prison servers to help cater to all tastes.
TheArchon
Server IP Address: org.archonhq.netGame modes: Factions, Skyblock, Survival TheArchon is another incredibly popular multi-faceted Minecraft 1.19 server with a variety of game modes, or “realms” to choose from, including regular old survival, Skyblock, Factions, Prison, and more. It’s got a refreshing no-nonsense attitude that just allows you to dive right into whatever you like within the first few seconds of joining the server for the first time - but there’s a particular emphasis on PvP modes here. You may want to take a look at our list of Minecraft texture packs to give you an edge over other players in PvP, or check out our towers and castle builds if you want to get to work on building some defenses.
MCCentral
Server IP Address: mccentral.orgGame modes: Survival, Creative, Skyblock, Hunger Games, Minigames MCCentral is another Minigames and multimodal server that has a condensed but still very comprehensive selection of different modes, each usually with multiple servers available. There’s a fully functional shared Creative Mode server which resets every day, where you can go to test out your Creative (and WorldEdit) skills. There’s a multitude of servers for Skyblock, UHC, Prison, Factions, Hunger Games, Capture The Flag, and much more. Plus, their lobby looks fantastic - particularly with good Minecraft shaders enabled.
JartexNetwork
Server IP Address: topsc.jartex.funGame modes: Survival, Creative, Bedwars, Factions, Skyblock, Minigames JartexNetwork is a popular and growing server filled with all the same sorts of minigames and modes as its rivals. Everything on JartexNetwork feels polished: the server controls are intuitive, the servers themselves are solid, the game modes are well-chosen and well-designed. It’s a great alternative to the more venerable titans on this list, and is certainly stable enough for a quest to defeat the Wither and get the Nether Star, which you’ll need to make a Beacon.
Blockdrop Network
Server IP Address: bedwars.gamesGame modes: Bedwars, Survival, Creative, Factions, Minigames Blockdrop Network is another very popular variety server, but it specialises in Bedwars - a game mode which requires you to protect your bed and destroy other players’ beds to win. Recently they’ve also added “City Life”, a unique Sims-style game mode with rentable apartments, jobs, salaries, and everything else you need for a bit of good old escapism.
MineSuperior
Server IP Address: hub.mcs.ggGame modes: Survival, Creative, Skyblock, Factions If you’re after Skyblock shenanigans above all else, MineSuperior should be your first stop. This popular 1.19 server is packed with variations on the standard Skyblock formula, alongside numerous other game modes if Skyblock isn’t to your taste. Everything is easily accessible and clear, meaning you can start playing what you want to play straight away.
WilderCraft
Server IP Address: play.wildercraft.netGame modes: Survival If the phrases “semi-vanilla”, “nature-themed”, and “help each other” appeal to you, then WilderCraft might be your best choice in this entire list of Minecraft servers. Within the spectrum of public Minecraft survival servers, it’s pretty much the opposite of anarchy servers like Minewind: the emphasis here is on collaboration and community, and working together to build and achieve lots of cool stuff. For those looking to meet new players and have a more down-to-earth, relaxed survival experience, WilderCraft is ready and waiting.
Applecraft
Server IP Address: play.applecraftmc.orgGame modes: Survival, Minigames Applecraft is a survival server, through and through. Well, okay, there’s a little parkour minigame accessible from the lobby, but otherwise the point is to play a more-or-less vanilla survival game of Minecraft alongside hundreds of others in a colossal 100,000 x 100,000 world. It’ll take you an awful lot of fully-zoomed-out Minecraft maps to fully explore that many blocks! So if you’re more interested in traditional Minecraft than all the Factions and Skyblock stuff floating about these days, then Applecraft might be for you.
The Seed
Server IP Address: theseedmc.comGame modes: Survival The Seed is another attempt to bring Minecraft servers back to the traditional vanilla survival experience. It’s almost entirely vanilla: the only additions are the ability to protect your houses and builds from griefers, the ability to warp to different locations (not for free, though!), and the ability to create shops and exchange goods with other players.
Datblock
Server IP Address: play.datblock.comGame modes: Survival, Skyblock, Minigames Another Minecraft server which offers a variety of survival experiences from vanilla to Skyblock, Datblock has the extra attraction of a series of unique concepts for survival experiences that we haven’t seen the likes of anywhere else. The ambitious Datearth mode is played out on a map of the Earth, and offers “a geopolitical game with towns, nations and war”, while the equally novel Datmars throws you onto a near-inhospitable rock reminiscent of the Martian surface, where you are tasked with surviving - if at all possible.
CubeCraft
Server IP Address: play.cubecraft.netGame modes: Skyblock, Hunger Games, Minigames CubeCraft features a smaller but arguably more intricately crafted selection of minigames and modes than most Minecraft servers can offer. I’ve been having a tonne of fun with their absolutely massive selection of parkour maps, with multiple themes each containing various levels across three different modes of difficulty. And that’s just parkour. The other modes CubeCraft offers are similarly elaborate and well-designed, with hundreds of players at any given time logging into SkyWars, Tower Defence, Archer Assault, or any of the other modes in their rotating selection of popular games. And with that, we conclude our Minecraft servers guide. Hopefully you found a server or two that you like the sound of, and are now joyously off building sky-fortresses or maniacally chopping down enemy beds. If you’re looking to gain more of an edge in combat, be sure to consult our comprehensive guides on Potions and Enchantments in Minecraft.
