Questions about this server

What is the IP address for Empire Minecraft?

The address for Empire Minecraft is smp1.empire.us. In Minecraft Java Edition choose Multiplayer, then Add Server, and paste it into the Server Address box.

Is Empire Minecraft online right now?

Yes. Empire Minecraft replied to our ping with 16 players connected. We last reached it at 2026-10-24 13:08 UTC and we re-check every five minutes.

What Minecraft version does Empire Minecraft run?

Empire Minecraft reports BungeeCord 1.8.x-26.x, which means it accepts clients from 1.8 through 1.26. A server with that kind of range is normally running a proxy that translates between versions.

Can Java and Bedrock players both join Empire Minecraft?

No. Empire Minecraft only answered on Java when we tested it, so Bedrock players cannot use this address. We repeat the test daily and will update this page if that changes.

How many players are on Empire Minecraft?

16 at our last ping. The seven-day average is 14 and the highest we have recorded in that window is 34. The chart further up this page shows how that number moves through the day.

When is the best time to play on Empire Minecraft?

Around 01:00 UTC, when we typically count about 21 players. That is the busiest hour we have measured on Empire Minecraft over the last seven days.

Where is Empire Minecraft hosted?

The address for Empire Minecraft resolves to a machine in United States. Players far from there should expect a longer round trip, which usually shows up as delayed block breaking rather than as a disconnect.

Is Empire Minecraft free to join?

Yes, joining Empire Minecraft costs nothing beyond owning Minecraft. Some servers additionally allow offline-mode accounts and some do not — the server decides that, and we do not resell anything.
