Welcome to DarkCraft, where Minecraft is played the way it was meant to be! We're a laid-back, mature, free-build vanilla server offering survival and creative worlds, PVP arenas, and lots of expansions coming soon—including Minigames and Skyblock worlds. We have a team of dedicated administrators and moderators who ensure DarkCraft remains free of lag, grief, spam, and other annoyances, as well as a great community of fun and friendly players of all ages. Come play with us at mc.darkcraft.org!
Our dedicated server is administered with care to ensure zero lag and 100% uptime. Our TPS almost never goes below 20. Our server runs contained within system RAM, which helps the world load extremely fast and makes teleporting a breeze. Server specs:
We think DarkCraft is the best server of its kind! Some reasons you should join:
You never have to worry about losing your epic builds. Our server has been around since March of 2011, and we're not going anywhere. It is absolutely FREE to play on DarkCraft! You can purchase in-game perks (which help make DarkCraft possible), but it is free to join and build. There is plenty of land available. We have a brand-new beautiful 6,000 x 6,000 block 1.7 world with plenty of land still available, and plans to expand to 16,000 x 16,000 soon. Your builds and items are protected. We run anti-grief plugin LogBlock, which logs all block data and allows us to rollback any damage done to your builds, as well as the Deadbolt plugin, which allows you to lock your chests and doors. Creeper grief and fire spread are turned off in certain worlds. We are serious about maintaining our in-game economy. The Admins and Moderators do NO item spawning—all materials are obtained legitimately. Certain, rare items and items that cannot be obtained through in-game mechanics, such as a sponge, are available via the in-game shop. Nether resources are always available. We maintain two nethers: a permanent one for building, and one for resource collection, which is reset when materials become scarce. DarkCraft is one-of-a-kind. We write many of our own plugins, which gives us an edge in update time, and allows us to offer unique features. Our staff is always there to help. We have a very active and mature team of moderators to ensure your playing experience is the best it can be. We have a friendly, funny, and peaceful community. Our vibrant online community is fun and friendly, with forums hosted on the beautiful and fast software Xenforo. We have players of all ages from countries all over the world.
