The Minecraft launcher,
light as the mist.
Every version, every mod loader, your Modrinth and CurseForge mods: pick, click, play. Misty handles the rest without weighing your PC down.
All of your Minecraft, in one small app.
Profiles, mods, modpacks and even a texture editor: Misty brings the essentials together and nothing more.



Profile management
Each profile has its own version, mod loader and folder. Libraries are shared, so nothing is downloaded twice.
Mods & modpacks
Mods, resource packs, datapacks and shaders from Modrinth and CurseForge, with their dependencies. Import a modpack in one click.
Texture editorExperimental
Build your packs pixel by pixel and export them as .zip. A texture edited in Paint.NET reloads on its own.
Built for playing, not for waiting.
A launcher that stays out of the way: it starts fast, uses little and leaves the memory to Minecraft.
Ultra light
Written in Rust, Misty uses very little RAM: memory goes to the game.
Every version
Releases, snapshots, betas and alphas, all available.
Accounts
Sign in with Microsoft or use offline accounts, your choice.
Auto updates
Misty updates itself, no reinstall needed.
Multilingual
Translated interface and Discord Rich Presence.
Shared libraries
Files shared by your profiles are downloaded only once.
mod loaders supported, offered according to the Minecraft version you pick.
All your mods, no tinkering.
Pick a mod loader when you create a profile: Misty installs it, fetches the mods and their dependencies, then launches the game.

Minecraft rewritten in Rust, one click away.
Horizon is an open source (MIT) rewrite of Minecraft: Java Edition 26.3 in Rust. Misty plays it like any other version, without the Horizon launcher.
- Pinned at the top of the version picker, with its nightly and stable builds straight from GitHub
- Install several builds side by side and pick the one you play
- Misty installs Minecraft 26.3 and Java, then prepares each build once from your own game files
Horizon is an unofficial project, not affiliated with Mojang or Microsoft. It needs a Microsoft account that owns Minecraft: Java Edition.

I want it!
Free, for Windows 10 and 11. No admin rights needed.
Frequently asked questions
Is Misty free?
Yes, Misty is completely free.
Do I need admin rights?
No. The installer installs into your user profile, and the portable version doesn't install at all.
Can I play without a Microsoft account?
Misty supports Microsoft sign-in as well as offline accounts: it's your choice.
Where do mods come from?
From Modrinth and CurseForge. Dependencies are installed automatically and modpacks are imported in one click.
Which mod loaders are supported?
Forge, NeoForge, Fabric, Quilt, OptiFine and LiteLoader. Misty only offers the ones that exist for the chosen version: for example NeoForge from 1.20.1, LiteLoader up to 1.12.2. Quilt also loads most Fabric mods.
