Introduction
This section provides an overview of how to get started with the Mineplex Studio.
Mineplex Studio Overview 🔗
Welcome to The Mineplex Studio, The Studio empowered developers worldwide to create their own minigames and game networks within Minecraft, with cross-platform support, monetization, and infrastructure hosting built-in. The Studio platform massively lowered the barrier to entry for game development in Minecraft and is now publicly available.
Inspired by innovations in the gaming space from titles like Roblox and Fortnite, we invented the Studio to empower our players to develop games surpassing those they previously played on Mineplex servers and in other titles. After the 2023 shutdown and restructure of the company, we received many requests to relaunch both the Java and Bedrock servers, alongside an overwhelming interest in game developer positions. While considering the skills and interests of the community, along with Mineplex’s long-term goals of inspiring and empowering creators, we decided to create the Studio to revolutionize the gaming infrastructure space.
