How to join a Minecraft Java server

Open Minecraft Java Edition → Multiplayer → Add Server. Paste the IP hardcore.tj, name it anything, click Done, then Join. Java servers use port 25565 by default, so you usually only need the address.

Questions about this server

What is the IP address for Hardcore?

The address for Hardcore is hardcore.tj. In Minecraft Java Edition choose Multiplayer, then Add Server, and paste it into the Server Address box.

Is Hardcore online right now?

Yes. Hardcore replied to our ping with 11 players connected. We last reached it at 2026-10-24 18:38 UTC and we re-check every five minutes.

What Minecraft version does Hardcore run?

Hardcore reports version 26.3. Matching your client to that version is the usual fix when a server refuses the connection.

Can Java and Bedrock players both join Hardcore?

No. Hardcore 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 Hardcore?

11 at our last ping. The seven-day average is 4 and the highest we have recorded in that window is 12. The chart further up this page shows how that number moves through the day.

When is the best time to play on Hardcore?

Around 00:00 UTC, when we typically count about 9 players. That is the busiest hour we have measured on Hardcore over the last seven days.

Where is Hardcore hosted?

The address for Hardcore 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 Hardcore free to join?

Yes, joining Hardcore 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.
