How to play Minecraft unblocked in 2023

Minecraft is a game countless people enjoy every day, though things sometimes get in the way. For those at work or school, it isn't uncommon for web browser blocks to be in place, disabling navigation to certain sites.

Since work or school computers don't always allow players to download Minecraft directly or even play the classic version via a web browser, an alternative is required.

At the very least, you need a way to get around the web browser blocks. Both methods of playing the game unblocked can be tricky, but they're possible.

Keep in mind that while methods like the one described in this article have proven to have worked, results may vary depending on how strict the blocking measures in place are.

Play Minecraft unblocked via EaglerCraft

Each web browser-based blocking service is different and can, therefore, be tricky to navigate around. However, you can still play Minecraft through certain sites that may not be blacklisted, thanks to third-party applications such as EaglerCraft.

If you want to give EaglerCraft a go, it has many of the game's features and core gameplay/visuals despite not being a perfect mirror of the game.

Here's how to access EaglerCraft:

1. Open your web browser and head to the URL “eaglercraft.ru” without quotations.
2. On the EaglerCraft site, select a version of the game you'd like to play from the drop-down menu and then press the play button. You can also download EaglerCraft directly if your device allows downloads and installation, but this is a subjective matter.
3. You should be brought to a new screen within EaglerCraft where you press a key to enable sound, then enter your username while also selecting your in-game skin. Once you've finished, press the "done" button and enjoy the game.

If EaglerCraft.ru is blocked, alternative websites can also run the EaglerCraft program in web browsers. These sites may evade the blacklisting of various IP block programs and include URLs such as:

https://ubg100.github.io/eaglercraft.html

https://minecraftforfreex.com/eaglercraft/

If these sites aren’t blacklisted, your web browser should be able to run the program with no issue.

Keep in mind that due to the way that the game's intellectual property is copyrighted, EaglerCraft doesn't exactly have all of the features of the original game.

EaglerCraft has been built from the ground up as an open-source program, but it can't mirror some features without sustaining litigation from Mojang and Microsoft. For this reason, the program is constantly changing, and the developers have to comply with any demands made by the copyright holders.

EaglerCraft may not be the perfect Minecraft clone, but it can still capture plenty of the gameplay and features present. It's still possible to join a server solo or with friends and build, battle, and craft as much as a player would like.

Hopefully, the web browser blocks in place aren't too stringent, and players can spend some time in the world's most beloved sandbox game for a little while.
