How to Join Custom Servers on Minecraft Bedrock (Xbox, PS4/PS5, Nintendo Switch)

Xbox, PlayStation and Switch do not let you add custom servers. No worries! Change one network setting (your DNS), and a Featured Server will open a menu where you can type in your server address.

This uses the free BedrockConnect project. MintServers is not affiliated with it.

Step 1: Change Your DNS

Use the DNS for your console. PlayStation uses a different one!

Xbox (One & Series X/S)

1. Go to Settings > General > Network settings > Advanced settings.
2. Select DNS settings and choose Manual.
3. Enter 104.238.130.180 as Primary and 8.8.8.8 as Secondary.
4. Save and go back to your home screen.

Nintendo Switch

1. Go to System Settings > Internet > Internet Settings.
2. Select your network and choose Change Settings.
3. Set DNS Settings to Manual.
4. Enter 104.238.130.180 as Primary and 8.8.8.8 as Secondary.
5. Save, and restart Minecraft if it is open.

PlayStation 5

1. Go to Settings > Network > Settings > Set up internet connection.
2. Select your network, press the Options button (three lines), and pick Advanced Settings.
3. Set DNS Settings to Manual.
4. Enter 45.55.68.52 as Primary and 8.8.8.8 as Secondary.
