'''Featured servers''' are community servers for {{el|be}}, 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<ref name="btfaq">{{Mcnet|better-together-faq|Better Together FAQ|July 31, 2017}}</ref> and a paid online multiplayer subscription service 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 [[Bedrock Edition 1.2.0|1.2.0]], the [[Better Together Update]]. There are currently five featured servers and Mojang Studios plans to add more in the future. Server owners with registered business identities can [https://developer.microsoft.com/Minecraft apply] for the partner program. Mojang Studios provides partnered servers with backend support.<ref name="btfaq" />

==Safety==
Xbox network is a social network for gamers, and servers require the player to have an [https://account.microsoft.com/account Microsoft account]. Players can '''Add''', '''Mute''', '''Block''' and, '''Report Players''' from the pause menu upon selecting a players' profile. 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, all official server partners have removed private messaging, including the {{cmd|tell /msg /whisper}} commands, to allow more thorough moderation across all parts of the server.<ref name="safety">{{Mcnet|minecraft-multiplayer-server-safety|How to Stay Safe Online|July 28, 2017}}</ref>

==Language support==
All featured servers automatically detect your [[language]] by the language set in the settings menu. Some servers may have additional ways to change your language in-game specifically for the server the player is on.
