How much is Minecraft Realms Pro?

In the US it's $1 for the first 14 days, then $29.99 a month. The trial price is for new Pro subscribers only, and the plan renews every month until you cancel.

Mojang says prices vary by region and platform, so check the price on your own platform before you subscribe.

Short answer

Mojang launched Realms Pro on November 9. The new Bedrock tier gives you 50 players at once, 25 GB of saves, a non-shared server and advanced admin tools. It is Bedrock only, with no Pro tier on Java.

Realms Pro vs Realms Plus vs Core: what's the difference?

The big one is how many people can play at once: 50 players on Pro, 10 on Plus and 2 on Core. Every tier still lets you invite up to 10,000 members; the cap is only on players online at the same time.

Admin dashboards and Minecraft Editor No No Yes

Mojang adds that the 50-player limit depends on your players' devices: low-end hardware can slow down on a packed server.

What admin tools does Realms Pro have?

  • A non-shared server: Pro realms run on their own server with 4 CPU cores and 16 GB of RAM.
  • Advanced settings such as player caps and render and simulation distance.
  • A performance dashboard on Minecraft.net with real-time and historical CPU, memory, tick time and player counts.
  • Minecraft Editor for cloning structures, painting terrain and building alongside your admins, with changes showing up for players in real time.

Is Realms Pro on Java, and does it work on console?

Realms Pro is Bedrock Edition only: Windows, console and mobile. Console players also need their platform's online subscription. Minecraft Editor only runs on Bedrock for Windows.

There's no Pro tier for Java; Java Realms stays a separate subscription. Every way to set up a Realm or server with friends: how to play Minecraft with friends.
