What we’re building for Season 5
Build and farm on your island. Gather supplies in survival, then bring them home.

A home for the things you build
Season 5 is being built around a protected island where you can put down a house, plant crops and work with trusted friends. You might start with a small field beside the door, then make room for a workshop as your plans grow.
A trip into survival
When the house needs more timber or stone, head into the survival Overworld to gather it. Bring your supplies back to the island and carry on building. The island is your home base; survival is where you can mine, explore and look for materials.
Grow crops and choose what to sell
Farming is the planned core progression path. Farmer Levels open up more crops and contracts. Keep supplies for your own projects, take on a contract when you qualify, or offer a harvest to another player.
Follow development
Season 5 is in development. Java and Bedrock support are planned, and no opening date has been announced. Artwork shows the direction, not a finished world or exact starter island.
