Exploring a seed before you play it
The same seed in the same version always generates the same world. That means you can scout it from here: see where the nearest village, ancient city or mushroom island is, and decide whether the seed is worth starting.
The map runs Minecraft’s world generation in your browser for Java and Bedrock, in the Overworld, the Nether and the End.
How to use it
- 01
Choose the edition and version, then enter the seed. In Java, /seed shows it.
- 02
Drag around the map, search for a biome or turn on structure icons.
- 03
Right-click a point to copy a teleport command, or share the link with the same seed and position.
Good to know
- The version matters. Biomes have moved between updates, so a map for the wrong version won’t match your world.
- Cave biomes like Lush Caves and the Deep Dark only show up when you switch to an underground Y level.
- Structure markers tell you where to look. Terrain can still hide what’s there, so dig around a bit.
Frequently asked questions
Is a Java seed the same as a Bedrock seed?
No. The same number gives different worlds in each edition, so pick the right one first.
Can I load datapacks or mods?
In Java, yes: worldgen datapacks (ZIP) and compatible mod JARs. They’re read in your browser and not uploaded.
How accurate is it?
Java structures follow the game’s own placement rules. Bedrock is modelled on its own algorithms, so check rare finds in game before a long trip.
Can I see the Nether and the End?
Yes. Switch dimension and the biomes and structures change, including fortresses, bastions and End cities.
Are my seeds or files uploaded?
No. Seeds, datapacks and mod files are processed in your browser.
Do text seeds work?
Yes. Text seeds are converted the same way the game does it, and numeric seeds are used exactly as typed.
