Expose Minecraft Server

Let friends join your local Minecraft server without port forwarding.

Multiplayer Without Port Forwarding

Hosting a Minecraft server at home usually requires port forwarding on your router. Skytunnel bypasses that — friends connect through the public URL.

Run your Minecraft server on port 25565 (the default).

Run the Skytunnel command with port 25565.

Share the Skytunnel domain and the assigned tunnel port with your friends. They add it as a server in Minecraft.

Minecraft uses TCP. Skytunnel's HTTPS tunnels won't work for raw TCP game traffic. TCP tunnel support is coming soon. Check back for updates.

Java Edition uses TCP on 25565. Bedrock uses UDP on 19132. Currently only TCP is supported (coming soon).

Player count is limited by your server's resources and the tunnel's bandwidth (30 Mbps free, more with paid keys).
