You need to know about Minecraft hosting if you want to play the popular sandbox game online with your friends. Hosting your own server on Minecraft Java Edition allows you to play in the same world as others at the same time – whether that’s for PVP battles, build competitions, manhunts, or just surviving side-by-side.
There are a few different ways to host your own Minecraft server, depending on your skill level. To get you started, Mojang Studios has helpfully provided free-of-charge server software that you can download. However, this requires some knowledge of java. If you don’t have that, there are other ways to get online with your friends.
