ExpressMC is an upcoming Minecraft server network located in the United States, designed to enhance the traditional gaming experience with elements focused on player versus player interactions. Currently, the server features a game mode known as Softcore Survival, where players navigate a PvP environment with a unique twist: each player has three lives, and after losing all of them, they face a temporary ban of 24 hours. To maintain a balanced gameplay experience and prevent any single player from becoming overwhelmingly powerful, the world resets every couple of months.
The server offers a variety of core features to enrich the gameplay. Players can encounter custom bosses that drop unique Life Keys, which provide opportunities for additional lives—up to a maximum of six. Other highlights include custom dungeons, a loot system without overpowered items, and various gameplay elements like Soft-Core rules that avoid permanent bans. Additionally, there are cosmetic features and an MMO-style progression system, and the network is actively seeking staff to help build and manage future game modes, including Prison, KitPvP, Factions, and Creative, which are currently in development.
