For now, the official Mojang Status Twitter account has not acknowledged the server outage, though we suspect that will change very soon. In the meantime, we are keeping track of the outage, and if any update has been issued by Mojang, we’ll update the article to reflect it. This server outage comes just after today’s Minecraft Preview patch roll out, and we even got a Bedrock patch yesterday to help resolve crashing issues.
For those that can’t (or can) access Realms, leave a comment below and tell us where you’re connecting from.

Connecting from Texas, 5:00pm Central. I googled the error code and found this 🙁 hopefully they handle it soon
Just got the error randomly after playing for hours on Realms (Java). Really upset me since it took me so long to find this article about it. Playing in New Jersey, around 6:15 EST.
