News and Announcements

Hello everyone,

Our first update since the move to Minecraft 26.2 is live. It brings the reworked Jobs plugin we previewed in the 26.2 changelog, the 26.2 rework of our building tools with a few new ones on top, and clickable chat that works again.

There is nothing to do on your side: same Minecraft version, same mods, same resource pack.

The maintenance is over, and Minecraft Middle-earth is back online on Minecraft 26.2! Besides the version update itself, we updated and tested our plugins across the whole network. This post has the highlights. The full changelog, one chapter per audience, is pinned in our new 26.x Update: Issues & Suggestions forum and linked below.

Thank you all for your patience while the servers were offline, and a big thank-you to everyone who worked on this update behind the scenes.
