Consoles have no "Add Server" button, so it takes a one-time network setting. Step-by-step guide below ↓

Consoles only show Minecraft's featured servers. To reach MichonLand, you point the console's network settings (DNS) at a free service called BedrockConnect. When you then pick a featured server, it shows you a server list instead, where you can type in our address. You only set this up once per console.
Xbox (Series X/S and One)
- Press the Xbox button → Profile & system → Settings → General → Network settings → Advanced settings → DNS settings → Manual.
- Primary IPv4 DNS: 104.238.130.180
- Secondary IPv4 DNS: 8.8.8.8 — then press B to save and go back.
- Open Minecraft → Play → Servers tab.
- Join any of the featured servers (The Hive, Lifeboat, Mineville, Galaxite or Enchanted). Instead of that server, a Server List menu pops up — that means it worked.
- Choose Connect to a Server and enter:
Server Address: play.michonland.com Port: 19132 - Tick Add to server list so next time it's one tap, then Submit. Welcome to MichonLand!

Not working? Fixes
- The featured server opens normally (no Server List): the DNS change didn't take. Double-check the numbers, then fully restart the console.
- No internet, or it won't connect after changing DNS: that BedrockConnect server is busy or blocked. Swap the primary DNS for a backup: 134.255.231.119 or 57.128.153.204
- "Unable to connect to world": check the light at the top of this page is green. If it is, try again in a minute.
- "Outdated client" or "outdated server": update Minecraft on the console. The server updates itself every night.
- Other games or apps acting strange? Set DNS back to Automatic when you're done, and switch it to manual again next time you play.
➤ Server Commands
Type these in the chat box (press T on PC or tap the chat bubble on phone/tablet/console). They work for everyone and in any dimension.
Tip: set your home inside your base, not out in the open, so you never land somewhere dangerous. Each player has their own home.
