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.

Realms are also an option for Minecraft PE, Bedrock, and Java players to join their friends. This must occur through an invite; if the host doesn't request the player to join, it's not available.

Realms subscribers for Java Edition can find the disaster maps in the curated content section. One-click setup, multiplayer, and perfect for short, chaotic sessions.

On iOS & Android: Explore new features in the 0.15.0 update to Pocket Edition and learn how to play locally, over Xbox Live, or on Realms.
