Analysis written by Valentin for Minecraft Hosts from the plans and information published by PixelForge, checked on October 10, 2026. This is not a hands-on test.
PixelForge is a free, non-commercial project run by Remii IT Solutions in Austria. Its free Minecraft server is generous for the category: 3 GB of RAM, 2 cores and 10 GB of NVMe, Java or Bedrock, with SFTP and a modpack installer. You renew it by hand once every 7 days; miss the deadline by more than 24 hours and the server is deleted, with only a backup kept for 7 days. Only Germany is free, and the service comes with no uptime guarantee.
Deploying and renewing a server is free, with no payment details asked. There is no paid plan: extras (an extra server slot, temporary RAM and CPU boosts, disk space, backup slots, ports and the Singapore location) are paid in PixelCoins, a site currency earned through offerwalls, rewarded ads, minigames and Discord activity, which cannot be bought. Optional donations go through Ko-fi and unlock nothing.
Every free server gets 3 GB of RAM, 2 CPU cores and 10 GB of Gen 4 NVMe storage on high-clock AMD Ryzen CPUs (model not named), with 2 network ports. Modpack servers get the same 3 GB; heavy packs need a temporary 14-day RAM boost bought with PixelCoins. Empty Minecraft servers go to sleep after a delay that depends on load and wake up in 20 to 40 seconds when a player joins; support can exempt a server from sleeping for free. Germany has two free nodes; when a region is full, a queue applies.
Java servers run Paper, Purpur, Spigot, Vanilla, Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, Folia or the Velocity proxy, from 1.8 (1.7.10 for Forge) to 1.21. Bedrock servers are offered natively, and Java servers can welcome Bedrock players through Geyser and Floodgate. The in-house panel includes a live console, file manager, SFTP, schedules, sub-users, one-click Modrinth plugins and modpacks, a free yourname.pixelforge.gg subdomain and PixelShield DDoS filtering. One backup slot is included, stored off-server.
Support goes through tickets in the PixelForge Discord, on a best-effort basis with no guaranteed response time. The SLA states there is no binding uptime guarantee and no compensation for downtime or data loss, and asks users to keep their own backups. The terms allow one account per person, ban VPNs and proxies, and require users to be at least 16 or have parental consent. The operator named in the imprint is Remii IT Solutions, under Austrian law.
