Seed templates in Minecraft Bedrock: all 27 ready-made worlds
Bedrock Edition has a built-in list of 27 seeds that put you right next to an interesting biome or structure. Here are all of them, with their seed numbers and a description of the spawn area, including two new templates from 2026.
The short version
- Seed templates are 27 ready-made world seeds available only in Bedrock Edition.
- You pick them when creating a world, in the Advanced section, next to the seed field. The list loads only with an internet connection.
- The newest templates are Sulfur Cave from version 26.30 and Dappled Forest from 26.50.
- In Java Edition the same seed gives the same terrain and biomes, but the structures appear in different places.
How to pick a seed template
- On the Play screen, in the Worlds tab, go to creating a new world.
- Open the Advanced section.
- Next to the world seed field, click the Templates button.
- Scroll through the thumbnails and pick one. The game returns to the world creation screen with the seed filled in.
- Set the rest of the options and create the world.
The template list needs an internet connection, although you can create the world itself without one. Mojang updates the templates outside regular game releases, through downloaded resources (minecraft.wiki).
You can also simply type a seed from the table into the seed field. That helps when the templates button does not work offline or when a friend wants to generate the same world on another device. You can read more about what a seed is in the seeds guide.
All 27 templates
The order and descriptions follow minecraft.wiki (as of October 2026).
| Template | Seed | What you will see |
|---|---|---|
| Deep Dark | -6778246788154565662 | You start on a wide Wooded Badlands plateau above a narrow fjord. From the river you can see the entrance to Dripstone Caves, which connect to Lush Caves and to the Deep Dark with an ancient city. On the surface next to it are a Jungle and Stony Peaks. |
| Mangrove Swamp | 8531363911024590720 | The border of a Savanna and a large Mangrove Swamp. Many other biomes are nearby, including a regular Swamp and snowy Windswept Hills. |
| Snowy Village | -321707274 | A beach next to Snowy Plains. Farther on is a village next to a pillager outpost, and in the village an igloo with no basement. A ruined portal is close by, and on the beach lies a complete, undamaged shipwreck. |
| Jagged Peaks | 297 | A ring of Jagged Peaks above a raised Meadow, next to a Dark Forest with Pale Gardens. Under the mountains are several ancient cities, in the forest a woodland mansion, and on the plains two villages with a stronghold underneath. |
| Bamboo Forest | 835314931 | A small Bamboo Jungle on a jagged coast. The terrain rises toward Stony Peaks and a Dark Forest with a Pale Garden. There are almost no structures, only an ancient city under the peaks. |
| Taiga Village | -1943825025 | A bay in an Old Growth Pine Taiga with many beaches. On the right are a Frozen Ocean and a taiga village. Next to it are two trail ruins, and under the taiga are Lush Caves. |
| Winding River | -1674197430 | Lowland forests cut by a large river that connects several small oceans. To the east are swamps, and to the west trail ruins and a jungle temple. |
| Coastal Village | -1251937210 | You start between two plains villages, next to a ruined portal, an abandoned camp and a Dappled Forest. The terrain is flat, with small islets and little bays. Inland to the east are more villages, and to the north a woodland mansion. |
| Abandoned Village | -1834063422 | A small desert beach right next to a desert pyramid and an abandoned village. The desert is surrounded by forests and a Warm Ocean, and the area has two savanna villages and a second abandoned village. |
| Desert Village | 1738801 | A seaside village in the desert, partly crushed by the rock spires of Eroded Badlands. The Desert and a Jungle form a huge island that is not connected to the mainland. Close to spawn are a desert pyramid and plenty of desert wells. |
| Ocean Monument Ahead | 2052062 | A gravel beach, and under the water, only 40 blocks away, you can see an ocean monument. On land are a forest and a savanna with villages. |
| Mesa Plateau | 288858475 | A rocky coast on the border of a Jungle and Badlands. The Badlands stretch far to the north, next to Wooded Badlands. |
| Outpost Ahead | 300746916 | Hilly, forested and cold terrain, with vast frozen landscapes to the west. Despite the name, the pillager outpost is very far away. The ocean monument by the shore, however, is closer than in Ocean Monument Ahead. |
| Spooky Mansion | 165605352 | You start on the roof of a woodland mansion in a Dark Forest by the sea. Other forests surround it, and trail ruins are nearby. |
| Taiga Bay | 1371621129 | An Old Growth Pine Taiga by a Cold Ocean. On the other side is a frozen bay surrounded by Snowy Taiga on very rugged terrain. On the peaks are trail ruins and a village. |
| Stronghold Below | 22061 | The point 0 0 lands on a huge mushroom island, so the game shifts spawn south, to a snowy village with a stronghold underneath. Close by is an abandoned village from a Snowy Taiga, and under a Frozen Ocean you can see an ocean monument. |
| Forest Glade | 1246877709 | You start among many forests with small beaches: a Dark Forest, a Birch Forest, a Bamboo Jungle and a regular Forest. A nearby village runs into a Sparse Jungle. |
| Epic Jungle | 442812649 | The edge of a large Jungle, with other forests and a Savanna next to it. There are many jungle temples here. |
| Mushroom Island | -4021567764695071752 | You start facing the Mushroom Fields, which you will see at a render distance above 24 chunks. A small ocean is surrounded by mountains with forests, old-growth taigas and Cherry Groves. |
| Sulfur Cave | -34158516305 | You start at a cave entrance that leads to very large Sulfur Caves. On the surface are coastal plains, and to the north a Dappled Forest. |
| Survival Island | -5419764247332618627 | A small island with plains and a village, with a stronghold under it. To the east is a larger island with a taiga and a second village like it. The mainland is thousands of blocks away in every direction. |
| Trial Chambers | -5082156891300789959 | Trial Chambers lie right under spawn. On the surface are plains and a forest, to the north big mountains, and there are almost no other structures nearby. |
| Dappled Forest | -190780752 | A beach of a Dappled Forest, and high in the sky large floating islands with poplars. To the east the forest stretches past an abandoned camp to a big lake. To the north is rugged terrain with Windswept Gravelly Hills, swamps, a village and a camp in the swamp, and under it big Sulfur Caves with sulfur springs. |
| Cherry Grove | 5890866665536842607 | You start in a forest, facing a Cherry Grove to the south. The grove is small, but a very large Pale Garden lies to the west. |
| Sunflower Field | 7465006182408109594 | Large Sunflower Plains with hills that hide Cherry Groves or vast caves. There are plenty of villages. |
| Pale Garden | 3515201313347228787 | A large Dark Forest next to huge plateaus of Pale Garden. Rivers cut into the terrain like fjords and expose Lush Caves. |
| Lush Caves | -1597699456 | A Dark Forest bordering Birch Forests by a lake, in hilly and in places mountainous terrain. Large openings lead from the lake into the Lush Caves. |
New and changed templates
The first selection of seeds appeared back in Pocket Edition. After the terrain generation overhaul in update 1.18, Mojang replaced all the seeds in version 1.18.10 with new ones, submitted by players in a thread on the Minecraft Feedback site, and added Jagged Peaks and Lush Caves. After that, templates arrived together with new biomes and structures:
- 1.19.0: Deep Dark and Mangrove Swamp,
- 1.20.0: Cherry Grove,
- 1.21.0: Trial Chambers,
- 1.21.50: Pale Garden,
- 26.30: Sulfur Cave, with the Sulfur Caves from the Chaos Cubed drop,
- 26.50: Dappled Forest, with the Dappled Forest biome and poplars.
Three templates got a new seed: Survival Island in 1.21.60 (players no longer spawned on the island), Mushroom Island in 1.21.100 (the Mushroom Fields are closer now) and Sunflower Field in 26.0 (larger Sunflower Plains). The versions are approximate, because templates change through online resource updates and the exact dates of these changes are not known (minecraft.wiki).
If an old guide mentions a template that is not in the table, for example Ice Spikes Village or Village Island, Mojang removed it after the world generation changes. You can still enter such a seed manually, but the world will not look like the description.
Templates in Java Edition and on a server
The templates screen exists only in Bedrock, but the numbers themselves work anywhere you can enter a seed. In current versions the same seed generates the same terrain and biomes in Java and Bedrock. Structures, terrain features (decorations), some caves and mob spawning are placed differently, though (minecraft.wiki, World seed page). Templates built around a biome, like Jagged Peaks or Cherry Grove, therefore carry over to Java. Those that promise a specific building next to spawn, like Ocean Monument Ahead or Spooky Mansion, will not show that building in that spot in Java.
Keep the game version in mind too. Sulfur Cave and Dappled Forest show biomes from 2026, so in an older version of the game you will not see them on the same seed.
On your own Bedrock server, enter the seed on the level-seed= line in the server.properties file before the server generates the world for the first time. We describe how to do it step by step in the guide to Bedrock Dedicated Server. If you are looking for other interesting worlds, check our seed database.
