This article will show you how to update your server to Minecraft 1.18.X version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note that we recommend you make a backup of your world and download it before the change as an older world (one generated with 1.16.X version for example) will most likely get corrupted. Here<\/a> is our guide for making a backup and downloading it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We recommend anytime to use a new world when you change your Minecraft version, so if you update from 1.17.X to 1.18.X it is best to use a new world. Here<\/a> is our guide for generating a new world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
