SLIPKNOT’s CLOWN Has His Own Minecraft Realm Called Vernearth

Slipknot percussionist M. Shawn “Clown” Crahan is getting into the world of Minecraft thanks to his new, custom world dubbed Vernearth. The world will operate in 45-day seasons, and of course will feature a bunch of Slipknot music.

There’s a really lengthy explanation of the world below, which I’m sure means quite a bit to everyone that’s into the game. I’m still out here playing Earthbound and Chrono Trigger, so y’know – different strokes. Play the realm here and join the associated Vernearth Discord here.

“Built on custom technology, handcrafted environments, and a play philosophy that rewards mastery across survival, PVP, creativity, and hardcore challenges, Vernearth launches with four major game modes: Oblivion, PVP/Event, Plotworld, and Challenge Mode. Together they form a unified ecosystem that supports every type of player.

“These modes will be rolled out starting at launch systematically to ensure a smooth player experience, so some of these modes may not be available right away. Explorers and builders to streamers, competitors, and high-stakes achievers will all have something innovative to experience in Vernearth, like:

“OBLIVION — The Core World. Oblivion is the heart of Vernearth. It’s a vast, custom-generated survival world that blends realism with corrupted “clown”-inspired elements. Players explore treacherous terrain, battle custom factions, and uncover the lore behind the three great capital cities: Raziel, Seniomsed, and The City of Eternal.

“PVP / EVENT SERVER — The Arena Designed for fast, high-intensity competition, the PVP/Event server delivers recurring weekly tournaments and creator-friendly content moments. Players fight across four bespoke arena:

The Circle Sphere
The Blood Square
The Blood Oval
UnEden

“There will be modes like Last Man Standing and Duels, earning “War” currency that unlocks exclusive cosmetics and items.

“PLOTWORLD — The Sanctuary. Plotworld provides a safe, collaborative creative space where players can build freely, merge plots, host social activities, and enter monthly build contests. With access to creative mode, limited WorldEdit, and a permanent Hall of Fame showcase, Plotworld gives players a way to contribute artistically to the world of Vernearth.

“CHALLENGE MODE — Vernearth’s Signature Experience Challenge Mode is a seasonal, limited-time hardcore world with only one rule: one life. Each 45-day season introduces a new Slipknot-inspired theme, custom world generation, brutal mechanics, and high-stakes objectives.

“SEASONS: Vernearth’s Season Mode evolves from the blood-red, Heretic-Lord–ruled chaos of Season 1: The Heretic Anthem, to the twilight-shrouded decay of Season 2: The Dying Song where players fight to forge the Beacon of Life, and finally into the unpredictable madness of Season 3: Friend or Foe?, a world where mobs, loot, blocks, and consumables shift with total randomness.

“Survivors earn permanent titles, exclusive cosmetics, Hall of Heroes placement, and a share of the prize pool.”
