Minecraft Realms goes live in North America

4.5
Mojang has launched Minecraft Realms in North America.

Minecraft Realms is a subscribtion-based private server rental service which lets subscribers set up online worlds accessible only to their friends.

For $13 per month, a subscriber can host sessions with up to 20 players live at once on the Mojang-run servers, which promise to be always available.

The service is currently only available to the PC version of the game, but the developer says it's "planning on releasing it on other formats in the future".

Minecraft Realms is currently available in many regions worldwide including much of Europe, UK, Mexico, South Africa and The United Arab Emirates.

Earlier today Mojang detailed plans for a 'Q2/Q3' release for Minecraft on PlayStation 4 and Vita.

While details on cross-buy and upgrade options are still forthcoming, the studio says it plans to enable world transfer from PS3 to PS4, and possibly also the PS Vita.

YhCHKN This would be pretty cool on Xbox.
24/7 server open for anyone (Y)


"accessible only to their friends"

Not what you think it is.


Then that person makes a post on TTG asking people to join. Simple.


Chances are though people are going to try to charge for it :(


who's gonna pay for that, especially if you could just pay for it yourself? LOL


They'll probably try and charge less though, I don't know but I can see that happening tbh.

Seems expensive to be honest, I wouldn't buy it I'd rather get my mate to host one but each to their own I suppose.
