Survive the Frontier. Master your kit. Prepare for what comes next.
The Frontier is a custom survival world built around progression, exploration, specialised kits and a seasonal story that changes the map underneath you.
Claim your place in the world, gather resources, build, trade and grow stronger — but don't get too comfortable. The Frontier is changing.
One persistent survival map. A working Nether. Factions that claim chunks and raid each other. Teleport requests, a /wild command that drops you somewhere new, and a spawn settlement with a shop keeper who buys what you bring back.
Your kit changes how you approach the Frontier. Level it through play, unlock stronger abilities, and end up with a playstyle that actually feels different from the player standing next to you.
New threats, discoveries and world events arrive through seasonal stories that unfold on the server.
What begins as something strange in the wilderness can become a problem the entire server has to solve. Seasons aren't a battle pass. They're things that happen to the world, and to the people living in it.
The Frontier isn't the only place you'll be tested.
Enter the Crucible to master your kit against other players, learn what your abilities can really do, and sharpen your combat before taking it back into the world. Forty-two kits, a fresh arena every match, and a field that never plays the same way twice.
For years, fighters entered the Crucible to prove who was better. Lately, training has started to feel a little less optional.
Casual matches run whenever three players queue. Nightly Hunger Games at 7 PM Central. A weekly tournament every Saturday at 1 PM Central with a title on the line.
Jump into rotating PvP games when you want something faster.
Seventeen modes on the wheel, a vote in the lobby for what plays next, and bots that fill the round when the queue is quiet.
Any version from 1.13 up to the current release connects. Any launcher works.

You land at spawn in the Frontier. Pick a kit at the kit menu, read the signs, and go. The arena and Mosh Pit are a portal away.
