Questions about this server

The address for The Ancient World is play.mctaw.com. In Minecraft Java Edition choose Multiplayer, then Add Server, and paste it into the Server Address box.

Is The Ancient World online right now?

What Minecraft version does The Ancient World run?

The Ancient World reports version 1.21. Matching your client to that version is the usual fix when a server refuses the connection.

Can Java and Bedrock players both join The Ancient World?

No. The Ancient World 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.

Is The Ancient World free to join?
