New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….

Original story (published on February 09, 2022) follows:

Minecraft is definitely one of the greatest video games of all time. Featuring virtually endless terrain using procedural generation, the sandbox game is developed by Mojang Studios.

Back in 2014, Microsoft set its eyes on the game and bought it for a whopping $2.5 billion. In the last few years, Minecraft has seen a massive increase in the player base and has a monthly active player count of more than 141 million.

That being said, some players recently complained that they were unable to play multiplayer since the server was down.

And now, it looks like Minecraft players are now saying (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) that they are getting a ‘Could not connect: outdated Server error’.

Many say that the issue surfaced after the 1.18.10 update and is preventing them from connecting to their favorite Realm.

Unfortunately, Minecraft developers are yet to acknowledge the issue. We hope they soon find out the root cause of the matter and fix the Outdated Server error Minecraft players are complaining about.

In the meantime, you can try using this workaround and see if it helps you connect to Minecraft server.

Rest assured, if and when we come across any new information, we will be updating this space to reflect the same so make sure you stay tuned.

Update 1 (August 10)

03:30 pm (IST): Minecraft players are again reporting the issue where they are getting ‘Could not connect: Outdated Server’ error when trying to play with friends.

This issue appears to have popped up after the recent update and is apparently happening as most of the players are running the older version of Minecraft. Moreover, it should be fixed as gamers update to the latest version.
