I found a brand new hardcore survival server where your first death is your last. It is one life only so every fight and every risky trip matters.
The overworld is huge with a big border so people can spread out but still run into each other. The End is also limited so it does not feel endless.
Pvp is meant to stay more classic with sword and bow fights. End crystals and respawn anchors are not allowed for pvp.
Griefing killing and scamming are allowed so you really cannot trust random players. Cheating hacking and exploits are not allowed so it is still supposed to be fair.
ONE LIFE ULTRA HARDCORE SURVIVAL

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPONE LIFE HARDCORE SURVIVAL NO MERCY

I found a hardcore survival server where you only get one life and that is it. If you die you are done so everything feels super serious.
The world is huge so you can run far and try to hide your base. The Overworld is 300000 by 300000 and The End is 50000 by 50000 so there is a lot of space but you still might run into people.
PvP is meant to feel more like old school fights with swords and bows. End crystals and respawn anchors are not allowed for PvP.
Griefing killing and scamming are allowed so you really cannot trust anyone. Cheating hacking and exploits are not allowed so if you win you actually earned it.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPWipe Season PvP With Timed Unlocks

I found a competitive PvP server that runs in short seasons with full wipes. It is all about timed progression so stuff unlocks later instead of day one chaos.
The Overworld is open right away then the Nether unlocks after a set time and the End unlocks later too. They keep fights more grounded since netherite armor is disabled and End Crystals are not allowed and Respawn Anchors are not allowed. Diamond gear stays the main endgame tier.
PvP is expected and you can make temporary alliances but it sounds like solo players are the ones who really win. Hacked clients and exploit abuse are not allowed and you still have to follow basic conduct rules. Unlock timing announcements happen in the server so you need to pay attention.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPExperimental Hardcore Anarchy Survival

This is a hardcore anarchy server with a bunch of weird experiments going on. The world keeps changing and it actually feels like the server itself is playing back at you. The world border started tiny and grows over time so new places slowly show up and new stuff keeps getting discovered.
When someone finally got to the end a destruction timer started and after that the end just got shut off. The owner keeps adding different world events that limit or unlock things so the game never really feels normal. There are custom structures out in the world with loot and clues and some story hints and sometimes danger too.
The server is hardcore so if you die you are done. But you do not just get kicked forever. You become a ghost locked near your own head. You can float around in that area but not go inside the ground. Other players can bring you back if they find special revival spots as the border grows. They need your head and a bunch of materials to pay the cost so it really helps to have friends.
The play style is anarchy with rules against hacks and exploits. Griefing is allowed. Killing is allowed. Stealing is allowed. Your actions have consequences and the world reacts to what players do. Crystal pvp and respawn anchor pvp are turned off so fights work a bit different from normal anarchy.
The server runs on Java Minecraft version 1 and feels like a long experiment where the world has lore and mystery and every death actually matters.
