The Minecraft 1.16. (Nether Update) is finally here!
If you have a VillagerHost server already, we already have the 1.16. jar file pre-installed to our panel for Vanilla. If you purchase a new server, 1.16. will come preinstalled.

If you have an existing server with us, we will not automatically update your server for you as we understand not everyone wants their servers to be automatically changed. Please see our guide below for those who want to upgrade. Please note this will delete your existing Nether world.
