Multiplayer



Multiplayer Minecraft was released officially on the 8th June 2009, after many beta trials. Users can download and run the server package that allows other players to connect to and play on their server. Future versions will have multiple Game Modes.

The wiki sidebar has a link to the Minecraft.net server list. Redstone Wire Ltd also hosts a Minecraft server list or alternative lists Minecraft survival server list (Survival) and Minecraft SMP & Classic server list (Classic and Survival).



In multiplayer, players can press 'T' to chat to others.
