#MINECRAFT REALMS FOR FREE#

New maps, character skins, and mini-games are constantly being added and as they're available for free with Realms Plus, it seems silly not to at least check out what's on offer. If you've opted for the 10-player subscription to Realms Plus, you should keep an eye out for the monthly updates. If you sign up for Minecraft Realms again, you can replace your new world with the downloaded backup of one of your previous Realm world - more on that further down.

After cancelling your subscription, you've got 18 months to download your Realm worlds before they are permanently deleted. Remember, for any of these subscription tiers, there's always the option to cancel later if you feel you're not getting much use from it. Instead, Java Edition Realms gets free community-created content. This means you can't buy or use anything from the marketplace and you won't get access to the monthly updates and over 150 content packs. You still get to invite up to 10 Java Edition friends to join your private Realm server, 24/7 access to that server, and three World Slots, but Java Edition does not support Minecraft Marketplace. The only Java Edition option costs the same as Realms Plus but offers a lot less.

Realms (Java Edition) = $7.99/£6.69 per month.

You'll get a 30-day free trial when you start a Minecraft Realms Plus subscription if you've never previously signed up to Realms. The other big benefit is that you can invite up to 10 other players to join your Realm. Minecraft Realms Plus is the enhanced version of Realms and includes all the benefits of that subscription, as well as monthly Minecraft Marketplace content and access to over 150 Marketplace packs. Realms Plus (Bedrock Edition) = $7.99/£6.69 per month.This subscription also supports Minecraft Marketplace, includes three World Slots, supports user-created content, and has crossplay across Bedrock devices. The basic Minecraft Realms for Bedrock Edition costs $3.99/£3.29 a month and allows you to invite two more players to gain access to your private online world. Realms (Bedrock Edition) = $3.99/£3.29 per month.However, there are three versions of the Realms subscription, each with their own benefits:

If Minecraft mods are something you care about, you may have to look for an alternative.Īs mentioned, you pay a monthly fee to keep your Minecraft world open as a Realm. Bedrock Realms Plus includes an array of Marketplace packs and supports user-created content, while Java Realms includes community-created content but does not support the Minecraft Marketplace. If you are a Java Edition PC player, you cannot join the Realm of a Bedrock Edition Xbox Series X or PC player, for example.Īnother point to note is that Minecraft Realms - for either Java and Bedrock editions - do not support mods. Be aware that while Minecraft Java Edition also has Realms, crossplay does not work between the Bedrock and Java Editions of Minecraft. Crossplay is also enabled in Minecraft Bedrock Edition Realms, so friends on any of the above platforms can join the same Realm. Minecraft Realms is available on PC, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices, and you can access your Realm from any of these provided you have signed in with the same Minecraft account.
