Use Minecraft color codes to get colored world names, colored server names, colored signs or even colored messages in command blocks. Everything looks cooler in color, right?
How to use color codes
Color codes with §
The selection sign (§) plus a number or letter defines a color code. You will find them in the table below.
These color codes can be used in:
-
Colored Minecraft World Names (both Bedrock and Java)
In Bedrock, just paste the color code. In Java, you need to use an external software like McEdit or NBTedit - Colored Signs (only in Bedrock Edition, for Minecraft Java use JSON formatting)
- Colored Titles, Tellraw, Say via the respective command. (only in Bedrock Edition, for Minecraft Java use JSON formatting)
-
Colored Books
Again in Minecraft Java, you need to use an external software like McEdit or NBTedit to paste the color code.
If you don’t find the § symbol in your keyboard, just copy it and paste!
