What is the difference between a Minecraft Java server and a Bedrock server?

Java is PC-only and supports Forge/Fabric mods. Bedrock runs on PC, Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and mobile, with support for Marketplace add-ons. The two versions are not cross-compatible in multiplayer. Hosterfy, Shockbyte, Minestrator, Nitrado, and Inovaperf support both.

Can Xbox or PlayStation players join a hosted Bedrock server?

Yes. Nitrado is the official host recommended by Mojang for console players. Hosterfy, Shockbyte, and Inovaperf also offer Bedrock servers compatible with consoles.

How much does a Minecraft Bedrock server cost per month?

Inovaperf from €1.99/month. Shockbyte from €1.70/month. Hosterfy from €4.99/month. Minestrator from €5.99/month. Nitrado from €5.39/month. For a community server with 30 to 50 players, expect to pay between €8 and €20/month.

Do Marketplace add-ons work on a hosted server?

Marketplace add-ons are tied to the player's account. Behaviour and resource packs installed on the server side work on any server running BDS. Minestrator and Shockbyte allow uploading resource packs from the panel or via FTP.

How much RAM does a Minecraft Bedrock server need?

Bedrock is less resource-intensive than Java: 1 to 2 GB is enough for fewer than 10 players. For 20 players, 2 to 4 GB is recommended. Inovaperf offers 2 GB from €1.99/month, 6 GB from €4.99/month, and 12 GB from €8.99/month.

Configuration	Players	Recommended RAM	Estimated price
Small group / vanilla	2 to 10 players	1 to 2 GB	€2–6/month
Family or friend group	10 to 20 players	2 to 4 GB	€4–12/month
Community server with add-ons	20 to 50 players	4 to 6 GB	€8–18/month

Location and latency

Nitrado is the official Bedrock host recommended by Mojang, with European nodes in Frankfurt. Hosterfy, Minestrator, and Inovaperf host in France for pings under 20ms. Shockbyte has nodes in Western Europe. For console players (Xbox, PlayStation), latency is even more critical than on Java.

Inovaperf includes a simplified online file manager. Hosterfy handles everything in French. Shockbyte automatically installs BDS from its panel.

English support

Hosterfy, Minestrator, and Inovaperf all offer French-speaking support. Nitrado is recommended for console players with a comprehensive Bedrock FAQ, though live support is in English. Shockbyte provides 24/7 English-speaking support.
