Accounts, controls and voice
Everyone plays on the same Java survival server. Some controls and item visuals differ on Bedrock and older clients.
Java 1.21.11 is our reference version. Older supported Java clients use protocol translation; this does not bring back their old combat rules or guarantee identical menus.

Link the right account
Use the Verify button in Discord's mc-verify channel and choose Java or Bedrock. Enter your Java username or normal Xbox gamertag; Bedrock players do not need to add a dot or replace spaces. Run the private code in game. Already linked to the wrong account? Open a support ticket for an ownership review and owner-approved reset.

Bedrock controls
Use
/geyser offhandto move a supported item to your offhand. Inventory menus may look different from Java. Report a broken action with a screenshot and the item involved. - 3
Voice chat
Java players need the Simple Voice Chat mod for their Minecraft version. It does not run directly in Bedrock. Bedrock players can use our Discord voice channels instead.
Connection help
Still not connecting?
Check your edition's address, restart Minecraft after an update and confirm that your Microsoft account allows multiplayer. A new Minecraft release may need a server compatibility update first.
For "Session ended", "End of stream" or a protocol error, send support your edition, exact version, device, connection time with timezone and a screenshot. Do not send passwords or verification codes.
