1.14 (Beta) support

Support has been enabled for the Minecraft Bedrock 1.14 (Beta) update.

We currently recommend the previous stable Minecraft version, 1.12, for the best experience.

1.13 update - Temporary Halloween Skins

The Hive supports both 1.12 and 1.13. 1.13 introduced significant changes to the skin format, causing big compatibility issues between the two versions.

As such, we will drop 1.12 support in a very quick timeframe.

Until then:

All players on all versions will be assigned a random Halloween skin for the Halloween period. This will be resolved within a few days. Hive Costumes still work.

Hive-O-Ween

Halloween has come to The Hive: Bedrock Edition. This update brings a spooky new hub, new maps, seasonal cosmetics, and a ghostly game.

Limited Time Game: Ghost Invasion

Ghost Invasion is back! Ghost Invasion is an infection style game where ghosts must infect humans. Once all humans are infected, or the ghosts have run out of respawns, the game is over.


New Ghost Invasion Maps

  • Castle
  • Spooky Hollow
  • Mansion

Halloween Hub and Pumpkin Hunt

Our beloved hub has been spookified, and with it comes a brand new seasonal event: Pumpkin Hunt. Find all the pumpkins to get an exclusive Halloween costume: Pumpkin Person.

Special Costume

Creeper? Aw man! Nothing prepares you more for Halloween than getting your hands on our Grim Creeper Halloween costume. At only 160 Minecoins, it's a steal!

Halloween Maps

Treasure Wars

  • Coven (Squads/Trios)
  • Resurrected (Duos)
  • Abandoned (Mega)

Survival Games

  • Cursed Kingdom

Hide and Seek

  • Mad House (Coming Soon)

Murder Mystery

  • Witch School (Coming Soon)

Black Hole

Due to the high amount of demand for a "black hole", we've imported the highest quality Hole in all of Minecraft. Those wishing to visit the Hole, should head to the docks.

Real updates coming soon, we "promise".

Asia Region - Special Maintenance

UPDATE:

We have made various adjustments to the Asia region. We will continue to monitor the network to ensure the best experience.

OLD:

To properly investigate issues with the Asia region, we will be taking it offline for maintenance. We have no set timeframe for this maintenance.

By default, players in the Asia region will be served by the North America region - for those living further west, it may be worth it to give the Europe region a try.

Login Rewards V1

Login rewards are now live on the Europe and North America regions!

Receive:

  • 1% XP boost for each day, capped at 10 days (10%)
  • 30 Quest Points every 10-day streak

It's worth noting Login Rewards follow the UTC-timezone, to prevent region hopping for "early" resets.

Rewards are applied on join - you will receive a message on join if your reward has been increased or reset.

This is only V1 of login rewards, and we'd love to add more! Suggestions? Leave them on this post!
