How to AFK in Minecraft: A Simple Guide

Ever wondered how you can take a break from your Minecraft adventure without actually leaving the game? Maybe you need to step away but don’t want to exit your world. Well, you’re in the right place to find out how!

So, how do you AFK (Away From Keyboard) in Minecraft? Let’s dive in and get you all set up for those moments when you need to pause but keep your game active.

Quick Steps to AFK in Minecraft

Going AFK in Minecraft is simpler than you might think. First things first, there’s no built-in “AFK mode” in Minecraft, but players have creatively found ways to stay in the game without actively playing. One popular method is to find a safe spot, like inside your house or a well-lit area, to minimize the risk of your character being attacked by mobs.

Another trick is to use the inventory screen. By opening your inventory (default key ‘E’ on PC), your game won’t pause, but it will effectively keep you in the game without the risk of being kicked out for inactivity if you’re on a server. Remember, though, this method is more suitable for short breaks.
