Aeon Network

Economy, Minecraft Gaming Multiplayer Online Adventure Survival Creative Sandbox Community Building Exploration Mods Minigames Economy Roleplay Plugins PvP Fantasy Virtual MMORPG, PvE, PvP, Raiding, Survival

🔥 🔥 🔥

Aeon is a cracked server located in the USA offering a semi unique game experience. We recommend playing on 1.8 if you choose to play our PVP gamemodes, though if you wish to play Survival you should play on 1.20.

Survival is our gamemode that contains custom terrain, harder level mobs and our attempt to offer a more unique experience. (It’s under development, so that means more features will come pretty soon.)

Pitfall is our flagship FFA gamemode that is inspired by Hypixel Pit.
