Bedrock Why is CubeCraft dropping older supported Minecraft versions?

[One.]

I tried joining every Minecraft version to join the server. I have the Bedrock Launcher application to play older versions of Minecraft. I played on 1.18.12 and CubeCraft does not support it anymore. I also tried version 1.20.0, the minimum supported version to join Minecraft servers. CubeCraft no longer supports 1.20.0. Minecraft have stopped supporting versions below 1.20.0 to join every server. I play on the minimum supported version to play CubeCraft which gives me the better experience. Also note mentioning that I tried 1.21.60, 1.21.70, 1.21.80 in 2026, still cannot join CubeCraft. Maybe the server is receiving modern updates. I’m now on 1.21.90, but my Minecraft version is going to soon be unsupported. I have to join on 1.21.110 or higher to continue playing the server. Can you please add support to older versions? I agree to return back the older versions for a better experience.

CubeCraft removed support of 1.18.12 since 2023, 1.20.0 since 2024, 1.21.0-1.21.50 since 2025, and 1.21.80 since 2026. I would suggest keeping the older versions, allowing it for a better experience since newer versions kept getting worse.

I found this post searching ctrf+f version seeing any changelog on the version support drop. Today i join cc and i cannot join. There was no warning or anything about it. There is this terrible bug on later versions that makes panning around nauseating. It still hasnt been fixed.. MCPE-230090

I did say there is a bug with the GDK version which affects quite a few of us. Camera motion is jittery and capped while movement isnt and it feels like im playing at two different framerates. Its unplayable to me

nvm for linux

They uses new items like in christmas event copper golem and etc. They just supports 2-3 previous versions.

The percentage of players who still use older versions of Minecraft that we have dropped is always very low. We do this to ensure we can offer Minecraft's latest features as soon as possible, and so we do not have to disproportionately dedicate development resources to the maintenance of game versions with a very small section of the playerbase.

¿Qué te impide actualizar a la última versión? CubeCraft elimina versiones anteriores para permitir que se añada nuevo contenido al servidor.

Es evidente que las últimas versiones de Minecraft presentan un importante problema de rendimiento. La mayoría de los usuarios juegan en dispositivos de gama media o baja, por lo que usar versiones anteriores es una buena opción para disfrutar más jugando en el servidor de CubeCraft.

I noticed how CubeCraft drops support for older versions of Minecraft. I got this message when I join in 1.21.80.

Hey there!
Your Minecraft version is too old to play CubeCraft!
Learn how to update here > cbecraft.net/update

I went this website - https://help.cubecraft.net/en/article/how-do-i-update-my-minecraft-1rh5e2g/

I was on an unstable version causing lag and performance issues. This message appears when you join the CubeCraft server below 1.21.124. Will CubeCraft update to native 1.21.11? Will CubeCraft enable vibrant visuals? I couldn’t even play CubeCraft with vibrant visuals since it was currently disabled. This might be a problem. It’s setting my graphics mode to fancy. I’ve been attempting to do this on latest version. Vibrant visuals is still not enabled yet. They will unless the server updates supported versions to 1.21.110 and above.

Spears aren’t available for crafting yet. It’s not showing up in the crafting interface. Unfortunately, I failed to craft copper gear in 1.21.90 since it requires version 1.21.110 to do so. Also note that copper gear are iron gear in 1.21.90, the durability for copper gear is less than iron. I’d probably going to estimate that copper items break at 25% of iron durability if you’re using copper. This can occur versions 1.21.90 only.

To answer your questions:
1 - Yes, CubeCraft will eventually add Mounts of Mayhem content soon. We don’t know when though, especially now with how frequent Minecraft releases content updates. We literally received a version support that added about three game drops together right before Mounts of Mayhem released.
2 - I’ve asked that question after 1.21.90 released and I believe they planned for Vibrant Visuals to be added soon alongside proper sharpness particles if it doesn’t break the server texture pack. I have no idea what’s going on with the vibrant visuals part though.

I agree that CubeCraft should drop older versions, that way they don't have to deal with compatibility issues and have more time to focus on updating and bringing new features. And the majority of people using those older versions are the ones that play on a bedrock client which update to newer versions slowly.

Hi, Thank you for sharing your ideas with us.

However, CubeCraft has made this decision to ensue that majority of the players receives the latest features of MineCraft despite the version stable or not, Additionally Mojang knows that this version is a bit unstable and they are working very hard to fix it as soon as they can.

Finally, CubeCraft has been Announcing about the versions drops since 2-3 month ( Correct me if I am wrong ) so now its the time to applied forcibly on the players. This decision allows Devs develop a better server, better features and more.

With full respect for your opinion, I am all ears to hear your feedback.

its pretty normal nowadays for older versions to be removed so that the server can update to the newer versions and is being able to bring new content and items to the server to be used, if a game like minecraft keeps updating and you want to use the newest features, you want to update! like as an example: you can have more block options to use for new builds/maps! you can use new items for maybe like new games! its just that it is necessary to update the game and servers and let older versions go, they are also doing this for java so its not just bedrock :)
