Got your eyes on the Ferret Costume? Hurry, as he will be leaving the store tomorrow.

His new friend will take his place for February. Be careful though, we heard he's a bit Toxic.

SnowWars will be leaving the server this coming Monday, January 20th.

We continue to evaluate how (a version of) SnowWars fits permanently in The Hive, and will post an update once we have more news on this.

The month is ending so make sure you eat... wait BUY the Gingerbread Costume in the Quest Shop!

We are receiving reports that in Minecraft 1.14.1, at times, players entities render as Steves, with skins never being applied. We have reported this issue to Microsoft, but due to the Winter holidays, don't expect any follow up on this until the new year.

If you are experiencing this issue, try fully quitting the Minecraft game (kill the process if your platform allows this), then start it back up.

Due to unforeseen circumstances we will not be releasing our Christmas marketplace map this year. We will most likely release it during the Christmas 2020 season instead.

Bedrock is releasing for PlayStation 4 this week, with the 1.14 (bees) update. The Minecraft Marketplace will be available, this includes The Hive's Marketplace content (skin packs, Pirate's Fortune, soon Grinch Quest).

Servers will NOT be available at launch. We are working with Mojang and Sony to bring our server to PS4, but do not have a date to share at this time. If and when we have any updates on this, they will be posted here as usual.

Thank you all that joined our first ever live event tonight! Over 14.000 players helped Santa escape from the frozen globe, dealing millions of damage (hits) on it. After the globe was broken, the hub transformed in front of all online players, into our 2019 Christmas Hub!

This is just the start - tonight's event was experimental, and we plan to do more events in the future: bigger, and better. Stay tuned!

Christmas Hub

Our Christmas Hub is back, right in time for the festive season. Check out the Grinch Quest display to the right of spawn - our brand new Marketplace Map releasing on the 17th!

Present Hunt

Find all 12 presents in the hub and get the exclusive 2019 hub-hunt costume!

Upcoming Maps

We've got 14 Christmas maps this year, 7 of which are Christmas versions of existing maps. Those Christmas versions take the place of the regular map, and return to normal after the season. The remaining 7 will be vaulted until next year.

Upcoming Game

It's no JBlobby, but it is a game! Our Christmas game is coming soon.

Happy Holidays!
