Getting Started
Connect to MistyMC, find a gamemode, and stop staring at the lobby compass.
# new-player# connect
If this is your first time on MistyMC, welcome to the mist. Here’s everything you need in five minutes.
1. Open Minecraft
MistyMC supports Java Edition only, on versions 1.8 through 1.21. If you’re on Bedrock (mobile, Xbox, Switch), you can’t connect — sorry.
Any modern launcher works:
- The official Mojang launcher
- Prism Launcher
- MultiMC
- Modrinth App
- Lunar / Badlion (just disable mods that auto-cheat)
2. Add the server
In Minecraft, click Multiplayer → Add Server.
Server Name: MistyMC
Server Address: play.mistymc.xyz
Click Done, then double-click the entry. You’ll arrive in Spawn.
3. Pick a gamemode from the compass
In your hotbar you’ll find a golden compass — right-click it. A menu appears with all six gamemodes. Click one to teleport.
You can also use commands:
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
/play bedwars | Teleport to BedWars lobby |
/play soup | Open soup arena |
/play practice | Modern Practice queue |
/play bot | Bot Practice |
/play build-ffa | Build FFA arena |
/play survival | The survival world |
4. Set yourself up
/sethome <name>— bookmark a location (3 free homes, more with rank)/discord— get the Discord invite/store— open the store link
5. Read the rules
Two minutes. Saves you ten.
