Playing, in three steps.

No hunting for Java online, no folders to set up. You sign in, you pick, you play.

  1. 01

    From the very latest to the oldest: releases, snapshots, beta and alpha.

  3. 03

    Hit Play

    Woot installs the right Java, downloads and verifies the files, then starts the game.

Cosmetics

Your style, seen by every Woot player.

Hats, masks, wings, auras and companions, in 3D on your character. Try them on in the launcher, and other Woot players see them in game, on every server.

Features

Everything tedious, Woot does for you.

Console and crashes explained

The console follows the game live. If it crashes, Woot spots the cause: memory, Java, a missing or duplicate mod, and suggests the fix.

Verified downloads

Everything comes from the official servers. Every file is checked, and an interrupted download resumes where it stopped.

Fast and light

Native Rust engine, parallel downloads. The launcher steps aside while you play.

32 simultaneous downloads

Even offline

No network? You can still play solo, with an account that has already been verified.

Profiles

Every profile has its color.

A profile installs the mods and settings that fit the way you play, and gives its mineral to the instance: your cards, your Play button and your in-game menu take on its color. Start from a built-in profile or make your own.

Eleven minerals, five built-in profiles. Try it: the website changes color too.

Official sign-in

Your Microsoft account, and nothing else.

Woot only uses the official Microsoft sign-in and checks that you own the game. No cracked accounts, no shortcuts.

  • Your password stays with Microsoft Sign-in happens in your browser: Woot never sees it.
  • Encrypted tokens on your machine They are only ever sent to Microsoft's and Mojang's official services.
  • Official game files Everything is downloaded from Mojang's servers. Woot redistributes no game files.

How your sign-in travels

  1. Official Microsoft page You type your password there, in your browser. Nowhere else.
  2. Xbox Live Confirms your player identity.
  3. Minecraft Services Check that you own the game and provide your profile.
  4. Woot Only receives tokens, kept encrypted on your PC. No game? Demo mode.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Another question? The Privacy page also details what Woot does with your data.

Is Woot free?

Yes, and playing will stay free. Shop cosmetics and the Woot+ subscription are optional: they change your look and add comfort in the launcher, with no in-game advantage.

Do I need to own the game?

Yes: Woot checks with the official servers that your Microsoft account owns Minecraft: Java Edition. Without the game, you can play the demo.

Is my account safe?

You sign in on Microsoft's official page, in your browser: Woot never sees your password. It only receives tokens, encrypted on your computer, and only sends them to the official services.

Does Woot accept cracked accounts?

No. Woot only accepts official Microsoft accounts. Offline mode is reserved for accounts whose game ownership has already been verified.

Which game versions are supported?

Every official Java Edition version: releases, snapshots, beta and alpha. Woot installs the Java each one needs.

What about mods?

Fabric, Quilt, Forge and NeoForge install in one click. Mods, resource packs, shaders and modpacks come from Modrinth, with their dependencies and updates. You can also import your instances from CurseForge, Prism Launcher, MultiMC or the official launcher.

Are the in-game modules allowed on servers?

They're client-side display and comfort modules, with no hidden advantage. Some servers still restrict features like zoom or fullbright: when in doubt, check their rules. Every module turns off in one click, and you can keep the Woot menu without any module.

Which systems?

Version 0.2 is available for Windows 10 and 11. The macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel) and Linux versions come next; Linux on ARM will be experimental at first.

How do I update Woot?

Woot checks for new versions at startup and offers to install them, with the list of what's new (Settings › About, where you'll also find the beta channel). If your version doesn't offer anything, download the latest one from the Download page: your instances are kept.

Is Woot an official launcher?

No. Woot is an independent project, not approved by or associated with Mojang Studios or Microsoft. It only uses their official services for sign-in and downloads.

Ready to play?

Woot is free. Download it, sign in with Microsoft, hit Play.
