If you’re itching to explore, create, and survive alongside your pals in Minecraft’s expansive universe, you’re probably asking, “How can I join my friends on Minecraft Java Edition?” Fear not, for we’re about to break it down for you!
The Quick Answer to Joining Friends on Minecraft Java
Minecraft Java Edition lets players easily jump into worlds together, but there’s a trick to it. You need the server’s IP address or to be part of a Realms subscription. Either way, connecting is simple.
For server play, one of your friends will likely host the server. Ask them for the server’s IP address. Then, within the game, select ‘Multiplayer’, click ‘Add Server’, and enter the IP address. Voila, you’re ready to play together!
