Minecraft 15th Anniversary This special Java Realms is part of the Minecraft 15th anniversary celebration. This involves 15 consecutive days of discounts, surprises, and blocky celebrations.

Java Realms Day is a holiday that Minecraft created to release a bunch of maps together. This year's maps all look amazing and give exposure to many independent map creators.

Minecraft Realms has always been quite popular among players, with its ability to host multiplayer worlds for up to 11 players without all of them having to be online at the same time.
