The pack

A pack is an item with its own inventory. Every new player gets a Leather Pack in the starter kit, and /bpshop sells five bigger ones, each a row larger than the last. The pack and everything in it travel together as one item. See Storage for the other places your items can live.

Get a pack

Your first pack, the one-row Leather Pack, arrives in the starter kit on your first join. For a bigger one, open /bpshop, click the pack you want and confirm. The price comes off your balance and the pack goes into your inventory, or drops at your feet if your inventory is full. If you're short, the shop shows the price next to your balance.

Open it

• Hold it and use it. With a pack in your hand, right-click (on Bedrock, use it like any other item).
• Type /bp. It opens the first pack it finds: main hand, then off-hand, then your chestplate slot, then the rest of your inventory.

Don't keep a pack in your off-hand: while it sits there, every right-click opens it, so you can't place blocks, eat or open doors. Keep it on the hotbar or in your inventory and use /bp.

The window shows the pack's slots above a row of buttons. The hopper sorts what's inside. On the Netherite Pack the arrows turn between its two pages. What you put in is saved when you close the window or turn the page. A pack can't go inside another pack.

Wear it

Sneak and use a pack in your main hand to put it on your back. It goes into your chestplate slot, and whatever was there moves to the slot the pack came from. A worn pack gives no armor and takes the place of your chestplate or elytra, so most players keep theirs on the hotbar or in their inventory. /bp still opens a pack you're wearing. To take it off, move it out of the chestplate slot like any armor piece.

The six packs

Prices follow what players actually earn: about 20 coins for an hour of ordinary play (see How it pays). Each pack costs about one hour of play more than the one before it.

You don't have to buy them in order. Save up and go straight to the size you want; buying every pack in turn costs 300 coins, about 15 hours of play. The hours are a guide: mining, fighting and other activity pay more than time online alone.

Moving up

A bigger pack is a new item and arrives empty. Open the old one, move your things into your inventory, then into the new pack. The old pack keeps working, so keep it as a spare or give it to a friend.

Upgrades

There are no upgrades to buy. The next pack up is the upgrade: one more row, bought outright.

The pack window still shows a few leftovers from the old upgrade shop: locked crafting table, anvil and stonecutter buttons along the bottom, and a star that opens a screen saying "No upgrades yet". They stay locked, and the Utilities tab they mention no longer exists. You don't need them: /workbench, /anvil and /stonecutter open those stations anywhere, free.

Packs from the old shop

A pack bought before October 2, 2026 still opens with its size, its contents and anything that was unlocked on it. Those designs are no longer sold.

On death

A pack in your inventory or chestplate slot is part of what you carry at death, with everything inside it. If a recovery chest catches your inventory, take the pack back out and its contents come with it. If that chest expires and the pack drops on the ground, whoever picks it up gets it, contents and all. Your ender chest is the place for items you want to keep through a death without a timed recovery trip.

On Bedrock

Packs work the same way on Bedrock: use the pack to open it, or type /bp. Crouch and use it to wear it.
