Frequently Asked Questions

  • What are the best Minecraft servers in United States?

    Right now, the best servers in United States, by player votes, are CatCraft, PlumSMP, and ChromaBit. The US is where most of the big Minecraft networks live, so whatever you're into, someone's already running it: survival, factions, prison, skyblock, towny, or a minigame lobby with a few thousand players online. Servers sit in data centers all over the map, from Virginia to Texas to California, so people on either coast can usually find one close. Most run crossplay, so console and phone players get in the same door as PC. The hard part isn't finding a server. It's picking one.

  • How many Minecraft servers are hosted in United States?

    There are currently 2,770 Minecraft servers hosted in United States on this list, spanning survival, skyblock, factions, minigames, and more. The number moves as new servers join and inactive ones drop off, and because the rankings run on monthly player votes, the order near the top can shift from week to week. Own a United States server? You can add it here for free and start climbing as players vote for you.

  • Which Minecraft server in United States has the most players online right now?

    Vanilla Hardcore has the most players online right now, with 40,152 in game. But it shifts fast. The busiest server in the morning is rarely the busiest at night, and numbers climb as United States hits its evening peak. Every server here shows a live count, checked automatically, so sort by players any time to see who is filling up.
