Earn money with Minecraft - Here's how

From StarCraft to League of Legends - the eSports scene has grown rapidly. Now you can also make money with Minecraft by competing against other block players. eSports is the new trend in which people can compete against each other in sports competitions using computers. As in real life, such duels are of course also bet.

Earn money with death matches in Minecraft

The start-up "Kickback" opens the original single player game Minecraft for the eSports scene. You compete against other players in a death match on different servers. Your only helpers: a diamond sword, bow and arrow and a quick reaction time.

• There is space for up to ten players per server. Depending on the type of match, you either play against everyone else or compete as a team.
• The previously available multiplayer maps are reminiscent of well-known shooter hits like Call of Duty or Battlefield: While one map is like an open battlefield with hardly any hiding places, you fight in other maps in winding alleys or multi-storey houses.
• According to the developer, Minecraft fans should also be able to send in their own cards, which are then available to all players.
• Such special Minecraft modes have been around for a long time, but you haven't been able to make money yet.
• With Kickback it looks different now: If honor and glory are not enough for the victory, you can bet on your own victory and make plenty of creations. Of course, this is not a requirement - you can also play the Minecraft Death Match against friends for free.

Set up kickback server in Minecraft - how it works

Before you can jump into fights with other players, you need to connect your Minecraft account to Kickback.

1. To do this, open the kickback website in your browser and create a new account using "Create Account".
2. Then click "Add Account" and enter your Minecraft player name. An IP address will then appear, which you must connect to in Minecraft. But do not close the browser window.
3. Start the game and switch to multiplayer. Click on "Direct Connect" and enter the displayed IP address. You currently need Minecraft version 1.7.10 for this process. If you have a newer version, you have to downgrade the game first.
4. The website changes back to the main menu shortly thereafter. Then start the multiplayer match via "Play Game".
5. Again, you will receive a server address with which you must connect in Minecraft. Note: For most servers you need the current Minecraft version again. So update the game before the game so that no errors occur.
6. During the matches you will find countless statistics on the current game progress on the kickback website. It is best to leave the browser open in the background.

Combat skill to fame and fortune - Earn money in Minecraft multiplayer

Before starting a multiplayer match via Kickback, you can choose whether you want to bet money on your win or not.

• The stake is always $ 1. Depending on the amount of your victory and the number of participants, you will get back up to $ 100, with the losers going away empty-handed.
• In order to settle the bet, load your kickback account with money beforehand via PayPal. After the respective match, your earnings will be credited directly to you.

For a change between the death matches, you can also play endergames in Minecraft or the survival mode known from "The Hunger Games".
