Why is there two different realm servers after I paid for the realm subscription?

Samantha Lazala · Mar 19, 2023

The game kicked me out of the server and asked me to renew the subscription (Which is weird, because so far it had been doing it on its own from my card), but then after I paid and logged in the realm from the same screen, it was a whole new server? And now there's two realms I have access to. How do I get rid of the second realm? Did I pay for something unnecessary?

Hi Samantha!

What device/platform are you using to play Minecraft?

I believe that your Realms subscription got expired before it was renewed. It would basically create a new realm.

In this case, try to create a backup or download your previous Realm and upload it to your new one.

In Minecraft for Windows, Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, or mobile devices:

Select Edit Realm in the Realms
Select the option to Download World.

From the new Realm game settings (at the bottom of the page):

Select Replace World
Choose the backup you’ve created of your previous Realm.

There are many reasons why i am choosing realms over any other way to host a server.

I want the server to be online 24/7. This was the main reason why i chose realms. Hosting it on my computer is not the way to go. Also i can buy dedicated hardware, but 2 reasons why i am not doing it. First
I am on a tight budget. That's also the reason why i chose realms over any other server hosting service. Second, I only want it to be a small survival server on which i play with my friends.
Also Microsoft/Mojang website is a trusted place to buy something, that is also a reason why i chose realm.

This was a decision made after thinking and eliminating all of the other options.
So, its a request, can i get a fix for this problem?

Good day.

You mean the realms?

You need to be connected to wifi to be able play on realms. Mobile connection wont let you connect to realms.

Also you need to have been invited by the owner of the realm.

If you mean server like Java edition, then you wont be able to join as its 2 different versions of the game.

Was it in a regular server or a realm? realms you have to pay for.
