If 1.19 fails, bring back 1.8 servers with what they had before, old maps etc, and keep updating 1.19 with new content.
Hey CubeCrafters!
Nearly 10 years ago CubeCraft was created by @rubik_cube_man , this birth occurred on the original version of Minecraft, Java Edition. We've been a Java server for most of our history, we pioneered all of our current Bedrock games on this version. Today we sit here with a huge platform which has held over 25 games loved by tens of millions of players all over the world.
I was one of these millions of players, joining in 2014 to pass time whilst I was in school, it ended up being more fun than I could've imagined and now I've been here for 8 years and now operate internally with the rest of the team working on making those same experiences for other players.
Working at CubeCraft has been super fun, I love spending months on updates and then watching all of you experience it and talk about it. Those release days are always my favourite even if they are a bit stressful! One of the things I've learned from being on the CubeCraft Team is that sometimes tough decisions need to be made.
Even as a loving dedicated community member I am faced with one reality, our Java platform is struggling. It cannot support itself with 1,000 players, especially with its current structure which was intended for way more.
I don't want to be a big Godzilla and ruin everything for all of you, I came onto the CubeCraft team to make things better no matter what, sometimes this can only be achieved by taking risks.
At this time, Java needs to grow beyond 1,000 players or we will need to close it. This is sad news but rather than come to you today to tell you we are closing Java, we are here instead to unveil some of our big plans to deliver amazing experiences to even more players, to inspire them like I was way back in 2014.
So what is happening exactly?
Update to 1.19
We will be fully updating CubeCraft Java & Bedrock to Minecraft 1.19.
Starting from today, our team will be focussed on bringing a huge 1.19 update to Java & Bedrock, featuring all new content, as such we will not be making any changes to the network for approximately 4 months until this is completed.
It will be all hands on-deck for this exciting new chapter, we cannot wait to welcome you all (and frogs View attachment 214671) into the new CubeCraft era with all the amazing content that comes with it.
Java Changes
One of the issues we've currently addressed from our player reduction is a lack of games starting in many periods of the day. We have decided to remove these games & modes in order to keep the network going until we can relaunch our amazing update in a few months.
As of September 5th, Java will only consist of the following library of games:
- Solo SkyWars
- Solo Lucky Islands
- Teams of 4 EggWars
- Free for All
- Skyblock
- Parkour
View attachment 214670
In addition to these changes we will also be reducing Lucky Islands, SkyWars & EggWars to 6 maps each.
These changes are in preparation for our 1.19 update on the horizon, which will have much more polished maps featuring many new mechanics from all the versions we've missed. We've made this change early to avoid confusing players on release.
Our new 1.19 maps will have more map-only features for example; a swamp map with mangrove trees & boats at mid. A nether map in the nether dimension with blazes at mid that drop items or striders that take you to generators above lava. The possibilities are endless!
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What maps are staying?
A:
Solo Lucky Islands:
- Pirates
- Luck
- Village
- Underwater
- Candy
- Nest
- Blizzard
- Bloom
- Trees
- Shrine
- Explosive
- Ping Pong
Team EggWars:
- Mushroom
- Olympus
- Palace
- Ruins
- Beach
- Fairytale
Q: Is there any chance for these modes to be added back again?
A: Absolutely. We are currently in a position where we need to grow our network, additional content can return once we're certain they can start in all times again and that they are still fun!
Q: Why can't you just put them in featured games and keep this system?
A: Featured Games as a concept was intended to have players squeeze together into small timeframes so that the games could start properly and wouldn't need to be removed. We are at a point where even featured games cannot be supported, it's also a difficult system to maintain. We'd like to focus our efforts on the remaining popular games and new exciting content to grow the network.
Q: Are the removed Java-only games going to be on Bedrock?
A: They could in the future, we currently have no plans for those specific games however we'd like to try everything in our Bedrock 'Beta Games' at some point to see how they perform on that platform.
Q: If you aren't doing updates for 4 months, is Halloween cancelled?
A: Due to the fact that seasonal updates don't require much development resources and that we had most of it completed already. We've decided to release Halloween as normal in October!
We all remember the excitement of enjoying CubeCraft for the first time, the buzz of meeting new friends and having new experiences. I'm very excited to get Java back to this point so we can provide amazing experiences through the Java platform once again like we did all those years ago.
That's everything we have for you today, thank you so much for reading!

My guy, ik you don't like this, none of us do, but its out of our control. There is really nothing we can do.man games were still filling up, u prob dont even play java lol, it's just going downwards, they're going to remove the server soon you understand that I hope!?
You're acting like staff now and the games were filling fine man, still 1700+ players on peak even though that's low but it was still alrightThere is really nothing we can do.

The news is quite sorrowful. I have also been playing Cubecraft since 2014 and remember everything and the old lobby and how Eggwars was such a big hit! No matter what though, I will keep supporting Cubecraft till the end. Even though I'm quite upset with the featured games vanishing and the fact that I'm a Cubecraft main and Cubecraft main only and I have only enjoyed Cubecraft due to its unique features that no other server has. Thank you Cubecraft for the fun we've all had so anything you do we will enjoy and support :D!Hey CubeCrafters!

Cube may have been able to last longer keeping it as is. However, due to their overpriced ranks nobody was paying for. I guarantee they cant afford to keep it running as is. This is why they removed game lobbies, running that many servers at once isn't free.You're acting like staff now and the games were filling fine man, still 1700+ players on peak even though that's low but it was still alright
1 year??? less lmaodude what the *** is this crap? Removing great games such as Minerware, removing one of the most popular gamemodes team lucky islands!? team skywars, great eggwars maps that are gone now only can be played by 4? The only thing you guys are doing is removing communities and removing players from the server. No one is waiting on this. This crap is ridicolous bro. People that are hosting tournaments for the server is also now gone since you guys are removing every game LMFAO bro I don't see this server alive in 1 year trust me
