Survival or Anarchy: which Minecraft mode to choose?

Two popular ways to play Minecraft in multiplayer. Here is how they differ, who each one suits, and the servers players vote for the most this month.

Criterion🌲 Survival🏴 Anarchy
PaceSteady, over several weeksUnpredictable
PvPRare or off (protected land)Everywhere, no limits
Team playAlone or with friendsDistrust or alliances
ProgressionBuild, gather, gear upSurvive, hide your base

Choose Survival if…

… you like original Minecraft, building at your own pace and playing with a community without pressure.

Gather, build and survive the nights: survival servers bring the original Minecraft experience to multiplayer. Many add land claims, an economy or jobs so you can play together without being raided.

Choose Anarchy if…

… you want a world with no rules or protection, where anything can happen, including losing your base.

No rules, no staff stepping in, no protection: on an anarchy server anything goes, from griefing to unlimited PvP. Survive, build in secret and leave your mark on the map. For players who want the freest (and most ruthless) Minecraft experience.
