Bedrock Survival SMP Server: How to Play on Bedrock (2026)

Short answer: Yes, you can play a Survival SMP on Minecraft Bedrock Edition by joining a Bedrock SMP server like Complex Survival at hub.mc-complex.com on port 19132. Complex Survival runs on both Bedrock and Java with full crossplay, so Bedrock players on PC, mobile, Xbox, PlayStation and Switch build in the same world as Java players. Your land is protected with claims, PvP is off unless you turn it on, keep inventory is on, and the world never resets: it has been running since June 2024. Use the latest version of Bedrock to join.

How to join Survival on Bedrock​

1. Update Minecraft Bedrock Edition to the latest version.
2. Open Play, then go to the Servers tab and click Add Server.
3. Enter any server name, the address hub.mc-complex.com and port 19132, then save and join.
4. In the hub, open Survival with the compass or click the Survival NPC.

On your first join, type /rtp to find a spot in the world, then /claim profile to protect your land. Want to build with friends? Make a guild with /guild create <name>.
On Xbox, PlayStation or Switch, the Servers tab doesn't let you add your own server, so follow our console joining guide first. Need help? Ask in our Vanilla Discord.

Is Bedrock Survival different from Java?​

No. Bedrock and Java players play in the exact same world, and nothing in Survival is Java only. Claims, guilds, jobs, the auction house, spawners, the Dragon's Dojo, Dungeons and every event work on Bedrock. Complex's custom resource pack works fully on Bedrock too, so custom items and textures look the way they should.
The only difference you might notice is in the menus: some open as chest menus just like on Java, and others open as Bedrock-style button screens that are easier to use with touch controls and controllers.

Why players pick Complex Survival​

• Your builds are safe: claim your land and choose exactly who can build, open chests or use your warps.
• PvP is your choice: PvP is off until you turn it on with /pvp, it is off in claims unless the owner turns it on, and keep inventory is on. When you want a fight, the Warzone is always PvP.
• Guilds and towns: build a town with up to 50 friends, complete guild missions and climb the weekly Guild Top.
• A real player economy: the auction house, Bid Wars live auctions, Item Hauls buy orders, chest shops and a server shop with prices that move with supply and demand.
• Jobs and spawners: earn money with 8 jobs, and stack up to 50 spawners in one block for your farms.
• The Dragon's Dojo: a free PvE area with custom mobs, bosses and loot, plus Warzone events and envoys.
• A huge world: a 110,000-block world to explore with /rtp, plus a Resource World that resets every Friday so materials never run out.

A world that never resets​

Complex Survival is a long-term SMP. The world has been running since June 2024 and doesn't reset, so your base, your town and your money are still there when you come back. Only the Resource World resets, every Friday at 4 AM ET, so you can gather materials without stripping the main world.

Play with friends on any device​

Java and Bedrock players can join the same guild, live in the same town and trade on the same auction house. A friend on a phone, a friend on an Xbox and a friend on a Java PC can all build together. See how Java and Bedrock crossplay works on Complex Gaming.
