Why choose CraftLauncher

In-launcher social network

Your players see who's online, chat via direct message and call each other with voice, right from the launcher — no need to open Discord.

Encrypted mod vault

Your mods are AES-256 encrypted at rest. A player can't just copy the mods folder to redistribute your work.

Centralized crash reports

When a player crashes, the report lands directly in your dashboard. No more asking them for logs over Discord.

One-click Modrinth/CurseForge import

Import an existing modpack in one click, with automatic RSS updates whenever the mods update at the source (Pro/Max).

Unlimited collaborators on Max

Add your entire moderation or admin team at no extra cost on the Max plan.

When MineLaunched might be the better fit

No solution is perfect for everyone. Here's where MineLaunched has a genuine edge.

You want EV code signing today

MineLaunched includes EV code signing, which removes Windows SmartScreen warnings on install. CraftLauncher doesn't have this yet.

You want the most launchers for the lowest price

At €3.99/month for 2 launchers, MineLaunched's Novice plan is hard to beat on sheer quantity-per-euro if you're running several small servers.

You want a proven track record and verifiable reviews

MineLaunched has been around since 2020 and shows 103 Trustpilot reviews (4.6/5). CraftLauncher is a newer service that doesn't have that track record yet.
