Guide

Playing on 26.1 servers

26.1 followed 1.21.11: Minecraft moved to year-based numbers, so 26.1 is the first release of 2026 rather than a jump in content. Servers listed here accept a 26.1 client, whether they run it natively or through a proxy.

FAQ

26.1 server questions

Short answers to what players ask most. Still stuck? Check the Minecraft authentication server status.

Can I join a server running a different Minecraft version?

Only if the server allows it. Many networks run ViaVersion or a proxy such as Velocity or BungeeCord, which lets older and newer clients join the same server. A server built for one exact version, common with modpacks, only accepts that version, and Minecraft shows “Outdated client” or “Outdated server” when they do not match.

How do I play an older Minecraft version?

In the Minecraft Launcher open Installations, choose New installation, and pick the version from the list (tick Historical versions if it is missing). Launch that installation, then join from the Multiplayer screen. Worlds opened in an older version can lose newer blocks, so keep backups.

How do you know which versions a server supports?

Every server reports a version name and protocol number when it is checked. A server that reports a range, such as “1.8.x to 1.21.x”, is listed under every version in that range; a server that reports one version is listed under that version only.

How do I join a Minecraft Java server?

Copy the server address, open Minecraft Java Edition, choose Multiplayer, then Add Server. Paste the address, save it, and select Join Server. Keep any port after a colon, and use the game version the server supports.
