Ever wondered how you can directly connect to a Minecraft LAN game? Let’s dive into that today.
So, you want to know how to direct connect to a Minecraft LAN game, right? Well, you’re in the right place!
Quick Steps to Direct Connect in Minecraft LAN
Direct connecting to a Minecraft LAN game is super easy! First, make sure the host has their world open to LAN. They’ll see a server address like “Local game hosted on port XXXXX”. Write this down!
Next, on your game menu, select “Multiplayer”, then click on “Direct Connect”. Here, you’ll input the host’s address followed by a colon and the port number they provided. Something like “192.168.1.1:XXXXX”. Hit “Join Server”, and boom, you’re in!
Why Direct Connect Your Way into Minecraft LAN Fun?
By direct connecting, you skip the hassle of searching through public servers. It’s a neat shortcut into playing with friends, family, or whoever is hosting the LAN session. Plus, it feels kind of cool, like you’re hacking into a secret club (but totally legit and safe)!
If you’re playing in the same house or nearby, this method also reduces lag, making your block-building adventures smooth like butter.
