Minecraft news » Minecraft Realms Has Tons of Maps!

Bubble Shooter, by SlicedLime

Minecraft Realms is always getting updated, with new custom maps you can play at any time! All maps are community-created, and ready to load up on your Realms server at any time. Neat!

Load a mini-game or map - which features a custom resource pack - and you’ll be asked if you would like to download the new assets. Some maps have been updated with the packs that they originally used, such as Color Cube and Bloxorz, but the best part is always the new things that you’re going to come up with. Sound-based challenges, animated lightning swords, or a narrated museum tours. Go wild!

To show off the feature, we’ve added an awesome ski resort adventure map from The VoxelBox: The Muk-Luk Lodge. It features a cast of original characters, plenty of wintry ambiance, and some sick sled jumps, making it a cool example of our new features. Read their travel brochure, or click right here to see many of the new maps added!

FREE REALMS TRIALS

Wait, free stuff? Yep! Mojang's Marc_IRL announced the giveaway of 36,000 Realms codes!

To celebrate the new maps, we’re releasing 36,000 14-day trials into the wild! If you haven’t had a Realms subscription before, start Minecraft for PC, choose Minecraft Realms from the main menu, and if a trial link is shown, it’s yours to claim! A number of trials will be available each hour, so if you don’t see one, check back throughout the weekend.

We hope that you’ll love these features and maps as much as we do. If you have a favorite vanilla minigame or map that you’d like to see featured on Minecraft Realms, visit the Realms community on Reddit and drop us a trailer or map download.
