About Best Skyblock Server
A small, friendly guide to Minecraft Skyblock servers, written for people who have never set foot on a floating island before.
What this site is
Best Skyblock Server is a guide to Minecraft Skyblock servers. We explain what the genre is, how to choose a server and how to join on Java or Bedrock, whether you play on a PC, a phone, a tablet or a console. Everything is written beginner-first, so we try to explain each term the first time it comes up.
Our main page lists the best Skyblock servers for 2026, and the guides cover the two styles of Skyblock, your first hour on an island and playing on Bedrock.
How we write this guide
We hold ourselves to a few simple rules:
- Facts only. Every claim about a server comes from what that server has published.
- No scores or reviews. You won't find star ratings, scores, testimonials or player quotes anywhere on this site.
- Other servers, described plainly. Our list also includes PikaNetwork and ManaCube. We describe them only with facts they publish, without links, player counts or prices. Our Bedrock guide also mentions two featured minigame servers.
- The same order everywhere. The list appears in the same order on every page: SunRealms, AkumaMC, PikaNetwork, then ManaCube.
How we choose our picks
We look at a Skyblock server the way a new player would, and we weigh these points in this order:
- Custom content beyond a plain island
- Progression depth, with goals that last
- An active player base
- Java and Bedrock crossplay
- Gamemode variety for when you want a break
- PvP for players who want it
- A fair economy
- Community and staff, including anti-cheat and support
- Longevity
- Beginner-friendliness
- Not pay-to-win
- Events
Here's what each of the four servers on our list offers:
- SunRealms (web.sunrealms.net, Bedrock port 19132) runs skills-based Skyblock with bosses, farming, foraging and island building, with Java and Bedrock crossplay, servers in North America and Europe, a Discord with more than 18,000 members and a new season every six weeks, with store ranks and Sunbits carrying over.
- AkumaMC (web.akumamc.net, Bedrock port 19132) has been running since 2019. It started with OP Prison and now runs seven gamemodes, including skills-based Skyblock and RNG, with Java and Bedrock crossplay, a 55,000+ member Discord and a new season every six weeks.
- PikaNetwork runs OP SkyBlock, with custom enchants, spawners, custom crops, a Gold Shop and pets, on a network founded in 2014. We only list a Java address for it.
- ManaCube has been running since 2013 and its Skyblock uses mcMMO, minions and six Skyblock regions. It takes Java and Bedrock players on separate addresses, and its realms reset every one to two years.
Where our facts come from
Everything we say about a server comes from that server: its website and the details its team has published or confirmed. We stick to those facts rather than guess.
General Minecraft knowledge, like which devices run Bedrock or how a cobblestone generator forms, comes from how the game itself works. Servers change over time, so for the very latest, check sunrealms.net and akumamc.net, or ask in the SunRealms Discord and AkumaMC Discord.
The small print
Best Skyblock Server isn't affiliated with Mojang or Microsoft. Minecraft is their trademark, and Minecraft Realms is their own subscription service, separate from any server named here. These pages were last updated on October 15, 2026.
