Featured servers

Featured servers are community servers for, which are partnered with Mojang Studios 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 Legacy Console Edition, featured servers can have their own minigames to play online. Featured servers require a Microsoft account and a paid multiplayer subscription on consoles only. However, they have microtransactions that can be purchased from their own sections of the Marketplace.

Featured servers were first added as part of 1.2.0, the Better Together Update. There are currently seven featured servers, and Mojang Studios plans to add more in the future. Server owners with registered business identities can apply for the partner program. Mojang Studios provides partnered servers with backend support.

Safety
Xbox Live is a social network for gamers, and servers require the player to have an Xbox Live/Microsoft account. Players can Add, Mute, Block or Report Players from the pause menu. The server partners work with a team of volunteers to keep an eye out for bad behavior, including bullying and cheating, and help report issues. Each server partner includes their own expanded word filter list to make their server experience friendly for all ages. At Mojang Studios' request, the official server partners – CubeCraft, Mineville, Lifeboat, The Hive, Galaxite and Mineplex – have removed private messaging, including the commands, to allow more thorough moderation across all parts of the server.
