What is new in 1.21

Tricky Trials was released on 13 June 2024 and centres on the Trial Chambers: underground structures of copper and tuff, full of challenges and rewards.

Trial Chambers

Structures of copper and tuff with trial spawners, which call up waves of mobs, and vaults, which you open with a trial key.

Breeze and wind charge

The Breeze jumps around and fires gusts of wind. Defeat it and you get breeze rods, which you use to make your own wind charges.

Bogged

A skeleton variant from swamps that shoots poison arrows.

Mace

A weapon made from a heavy core and a breeze rod. The further you fall before the hit, the more damage it does.

Crafter

A block that crafts automatically with redstone, for farms and machines.

Paper, Purpur, Vanilla or Fabric, in every version on our mirror. We add the right Java automatically.

Switch later

With the wizard in the panel you pick another type or version. We back up your server first, then it is reinstalled.

Plugins and mods

A plugin or mod has to support your server version. After a new release it often takes a while before everything is updated; check before you switch.

Players on the same version

A Java player connects with the version the server runs. When you switch, tell your players which version to pick in the launcher.

Frequently asked questions

Can I switch to another Minecraft version later?
Yes. With the wizard in the panel you pick another type or version. We back up your server first, then it is reinstalled with the right Java.
Does my world come along to a new version?
Minecraft converts a world to the new version as soon as the server loads it. Going back to an older version does not work well, so keep the backup from before the switch.
Will my plugins work on a new version?
Only if the plugin supports that version. Check the plugin page before you switch; after a big release, updates sometimes take a while.
Can players on another version join?
Not by default: a Java player picks the same version as the server in the launcher. With a plugin such as ViaVersion you can let newer clients join an older server.
