COMMON QUESTIONS
Minecraft Java hosting FAQ
How much does Minecraft Java hosting cost?
Minecraft Java starts at $9.99/mo for the 4 GB minimum configuration. The monthly total changes only when the selected RAM changes; player count and workload affect the recommendation rather than adding separate fees.
Do my players need a Runic Hosting account?
No. The customer account belongs to the person managing the hosting service. Players connect through the game using the server address and port that applies to Minecraft Java.
Can I choose less RAM than the recommendation?
Yes. The current minimum for Minecraft Java is 4 GB. The 6 GB recommendation is guidance, so the builder can allow a lower valid configuration and clearly warn when it is below the recommendation.
Where will this server run?
Los Angeles, California is Runic Hosting's selected first location. Production capacity is not described as active until the service is online and validated.
Can I upload an existing world or save?
Yes, where the existing Minecraft Java data is compatible with the supported server version. Runic Hosting includes migration assistance and direct file access for the supported workflow.
Can I use mods, plugins or custom server settings?
Current supported workflows include: Vanilla · Paper / Purpur · Lightweight Fabric. Support is game-specific because incompatible third-party content can change resource use and stability.
Do I get file and backup access?
Runic Hosting’s production panel model includes browser file management, SFTP and backup access. Exact backup limits and any game-specific exclusions are published with the paid product before checkout.
