Welcome to 1.18 and 1.21!

After over 4 years of work, and jumping 8 Minecraft versions, we are extremely excited to open the doors to 1.18 and 1.21. We are grateful for a relatively smooth maintenance period which has allowed us to ensure that players can rejoin the server as soon as possible!

At this present point in time we have re-opened our worlds, complete with the new levelling experience that will be detailed below. Our regular class schedule will also resume, beginning with Magical Cuisine at 1:00PM PST (in 12 hours)!

We are currently working with the Build team to finalise our minigame builds, before we can re-enable minigames. We hope to have these both back up by the end of the week, assuming all goes well. Unfortunately Housing is still not available as we are still backing all the plots up. We want to ensure that we have a backup of all Housing plots before we begin migrating their world files to 1.18 as we know how much history and how important these are!

How to Connect

You can now join Potterworld on our same IP, play.potterworldmc.com, on any of the following four versions: 1.18.2, 1.21.8, 1.21.9, or 1.21.10.

The base version of our server is currently 1.18.2, so only features available on this version are accessible to players. However this does include an increased build height, the ability to swim, longer chat message lengths, and many many many new blocks for players and staff to build with, in addition to the numerous features added both in Minecraft and our external plugins.

It is our aim to continue to allow support to join on the latest version, so far as it is reasonably achievable.

Welcome back to the Daily Diviner department updates! December and January were big months for Potterworld, and there are a multitude of new things to share. Read on...

Salutations everyone!

Back in September, we released a Potterworld Announcement that outlined 4 key goals for the server. Since then, 1.18 has been released with great success thanks to the development team, our halloween and winter waltz events have taken place, and we’ve revamped the levelling system following player feedback. The First Year Experience will also be brought back to the main world over the coming months. With the progress that has been made, and more events in the pipeline, it is time to take Potterworld 2.0 off the shelf and bring it back into focus.


1.18 has brought a huge number of possibilities to the server for our textures, builds, tech, and more. Fundamental components of Minecraft have been upgraded and we want to make use of these in delivering the best gameplay that we can. In order to do this, we have to look at every aspect of our world map in its current state and review opportunities to upgrade it. Potterworld 2.0 will no longer be the Directium update, but will instead take a different approach so that we can make use of the new features available through 1.18. The artworker team has already been hard at work creating hundreds of new models, with more on the way. Using these new textures, the build team will be able to upgrade all areas of our map with new textures, new terrain (due to minecraft’s increased build height) and more variety. Finally, the Game Design team will be able to upgrade the tech throughout our world with the help of the development team’s work in creating new...

Hey everyone!

After a long, cold winter, spring has finally arrived and the flowers are starting to come back. With the change of season, our minigame maps are getting a fresh splash of color! Check out the full list below to find out which maps will be blooming for your gameplay for the next rotation!

Minigame maps will rotate around every three months - you can expect maps to rotate in January, April, July and October. This means that some maps will be disabled for certain periods to allow others to shine. Additionally, special-themed maps, such as event maps, will be accessible for the duration of the respective events and will not be part of the rotations.

We hope you all enjoy this quarter's rotation!
