Minecraft Hardcore Server FAQ

On most Hardcore servers, death results in temporary or permanent bans. Some servers block players for a few hours or days, while others remove them from the world completely.

Usually, players cannot respawn normally after dying. Depending on the server rules, you may need to wait for a ban timer or restart your progress.

Many Hardcore servers combine survival gameplay with PvP, creating high-risk worlds where players must survive mobs, hostile environments, and other players.
