A game server is a computer that runs your multiplayer world online so that you and other players can connect to it anytime.
Instead of relying on someone’s PC to host the game, a dedicated server stays online 24/7 and provides a smoother, more reliable experience.
Why Use a Game Server?
Hosting your own server gives you full control over things like:
Who can join
What plugins or mods you use
Server rules and settings
Performance and player limits
Custom worlds and game modes
