Featured servers

Featured servers are community servers for the Bedrock Edition of Minecraft, which are partnered with Mojang AB and are accessible from the in-game server list. In the console versions, they are the only servers accessible besides Realms. Although the Bedrock Edition lacks the Mini Games of the Console Edition, featured servers can have their own minigames to play online. Featured servers require an Xbox Live account and have no fee to join. However, they have microtransactions which are purchasable from their own sections of the Marketplace.

Featured servers were first added as part of 1.2, the Better Together Update. There are currently three featured servers, and Mojang plans to add more in the future. Server owners with registered business identities can apply for the partner program. Mojang provides partnered servers with backend support. Each featured server has volunteer moderators and its own expanded word filter list for the chat. At Mojang's request, the featured servers have disabled the /tell command and removed other private messaging functionality in order to facilitate moderation. Mojang also requires their content to be appropriate for all ages.

List of featured servers

 * InPVP
 * Lifeboat
 * Mineplex

CubeCraft, whose Bedrock Edition server has not opened yet, is also a partner of Mojang. It was announced for launch and is even mentioned in the in-game changelog. But it did not open in time for the release of the 1.2 update, unlike InPVP, Lifeboat, and Mineplex, which were pre-existing Bedrock servers that run on unofficial Bedrock Edition server software. It has been noted that they are still working on the Bedrock server and they are waiting for Microsoft to fix "client-side bugs".
