About minigames servers

What is a Minecraft minigames server?

Minigames are Minecraft's fast, round-based side. In BedWars, teams defend their bed while raiding the others. SkyWars drops everyone onto floating islands, and Spleef, parkour and Hide and Seek round out the lineup. A Minecraft minigames server is your own Java server that runs these modes as Paper or Spigot plugins, with a lobby for picking the next game, unlimited player slots and optional Bedrock crossplay.

With your own server, you decide which games rotate, how big the arenas are and who gets in. You can keep it private with a whitelist for friends and family or open a public lobby for your community. Swap the preinstalled Vanilla setup for Paper, Spigot or Purpur, install minigame plugins from the panel and add Geyser with one click so Bedrock friends can join the next BedWars round.

Features

Everything your minigames server needs.

From the first BedWars round with friends to a public lobby with several arenas, your server grows with your players.

Unlimited player slots

Fill every BedWars team and the lobby. Packages scale by RAM and CPU, not by slots.

Responsive parallel arenas

Several rounds can run side by side and stay responsive on powerful server CPUs.

Online in 60 seconds

Your server is ready about a minute after you order, with Vanilla preinstalled.

Backups for arenas and lobby

With ZapX Pass, roll back a broken arena or a lost lobby build from a Backup in the panel.

Grow with your community

Add RAM and CPU as more players and arenas arrive, without moving your worlds.

Locations worldwide

Your players get lower ping when you pick the location closest to them.

Minecraft panel

Plugins, server software, Bedrock crossplay and player control are all one click away in the panel.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Minecraft Minigames

Answers to the most important questions before you start.

Order a package and your server goes online with Vanilla preinstalled. Switch the server software to Paper, Spigot or Purpur in the panel, install minigame plugins, build your arenas and a lobby, then share your server's IP and port with your players. Plugin guide in the Help Center

Pick Paper, Spigot or Purpur in the panel
Install minigame plugins from Modrinth or Hangar
Set up arenas and a lobby world, then test a round

The price depends on the package you choose, not on player slots, so every package includes unlimited slots. The pricing section above shows the current price for each package and term. Terms run from 3 to 365 days. You can cancel anytime, and the cancellation takes effect at the end of the current term.

Unlimited player slots in every package
Live prices per package in the shop
Cancel anytime

It depends on how many players are online at once, how many arenas run in parallel and how many plugins you install. A private friends server with one or two modes needs less than a public lobby with several BedWars and SkyWars arenas. Start with a package that fits your needs today and add RAM and CPU when the statistics show rising load.

More parallel arenas need more RAM
Heavy plugins raise CPU load
Upgrade later without moving your worlds

Your server is usually online within about 60 seconds of ordering, with Vanilla preinstalled. Switching to Paper or Spigot and installing your first minigame plugin takes only a few more clicks in the panel.

Yes. On Paper, Spigot, Bukkit and Purpur servers, you can set up Geyser, Floodgate and ViaVersion with one click in the panel. Bedrock players on console, mobile and Windows can then join the same BedWars or SkyWars rounds as your Java players.

One-click Geyser and Floodgate setup
Java and Bedrock players in one lobby

Yes. Turn on the whitelist and add only the players you invite, either in the panel's player management or through the console. You can also kick and ban players and set operator levels without typing commands, so a private server for friends, family or kids is easy to manage. Whitelist guide in the Help Center

Whitelist for invited players only
Kick, ban and OP levels in the panel

Not for most groups. One Paper server can host a lobby and several arenas. If you want a separate server for each game mode, run BungeeCord or Velocity as a proxy in front of several Minecraft servers. Both are available as server software in the panel, and our BungeeCord server hosting page covers the network setup. BungeeCord setup in the Help Center

One server: lobby world plus arenas
Network: proxy plus one server per mode

We have locations worldwide. Pick the one closest to most of your players to keep ping low. Many North American groups start with Ashburn, Dallas or Los Angeles, and every other location in the list is available too.

I want BedWars and SkyWars for about 12 friends. Where do I start?

Switch the server software to Paper, install one BedWars and one SkyWars plugin from the plugin browser, then build or import an arena for each mode and a small lobby. Test a round with two or three players before you invite everyone.

How do I know if my RAM is enough?

Watch RAM and CPU in the statistics during a full round. If the load climbs when several arenas run at once, it's time to plan for more resources.
