Minecraft has one of the biggest open worlds in gaming, with roughly 30 million blocks in each direction of the spawn point, for a size of 60 million meters if measured in real-world terms. They are further divided into three dimensions: Overworld, Nether and End, each with its own secrets and dangers.
However, if you have managed to explore them all, it might be time to install more mods to spice it up a little. In this article, we are going to list out the top 10 best dimension mods for Minecraft.
Table of Contents
1. Galaticraft + Extra Planets
Galacticraft is a mod for Minecraft which introduces 5 new dimensions that are based on planets and satellites in the Solar System. These include the Moon, Mars, Venus, Asteroids and a Space Station built by the space Explorer (aka the Player).
To travel to other planets, players need to build a rocket using the NASA workbench. Each tier of Rocket will fly to a different planet - building and flying them requires fuel refined from oil.
Extra Planets is an add-on for the mod Galacticraft that adds more planets and improves the other features of Galaticraft. The space dimensions have different gravity, no oxygen, extreme temperatures, evolved mobs and other challenges for players. With this add on, Galacticraft becomes one of the biggest dimension mods for Minecraft.
2. The Aether II
The Aether II is the sequel to the highly popular dimension mod "The Aether". It is set in a hostile "paradise land" high up in the cloud, a much different world from what regular players are used to. The new Aether dimension is filled with fantastic creatures and mysterious structures, each with its own unique quirks and details.
Players will need to relearn how they play Minecraft to survive and prosper in this strange new land. Dungeons, Biomes, NPC settlements and more pepper the landscape, offering new challenges and unique experiences. In this aspect, you can say that the Aether II is amongst the best dimension mods Minecraft.
3. AbyssalCraft
AbyssalCraft is a mod centered around exploration, but with growing magical elements that take heavy inspiration from H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos. This mod will have you encountering twisted fiends of the dark depths, casting eldritch rituals using forbidden artifacts, and summoning powerful bosses out of this world.
The deeper you delve into the mod, the more twisted the worlds become and danger looms around every corner.
4. Mystcraft
How to make a dimension mod in Minecraft? - Install Mystcraft and you can use your imagination to customize dimensions in Minecraft of your own.
Mystcraft is a mod that allows players to create dimensions (also known as ages) through the use of Descriptive Books and traveling inside or between the ages and the vanilla dimensions with Linking Books. The properties of the newly created ages are defined by the symbols on the pages used in the process of crafting the descriptive book.
Overall, Mystcraft is more or less like a "create your own dimension" type of mod, with the players being able to choose the dimension by customizing the Linking book.
5. Dimensional Doors
Unlike the other mods that focus on creating new dimensions, this mod just adds more to the vanilla version of Minecraft. It adds several types of Dimensional Doors that allow access to teleportation and extra-dimensional pocket dungeons. These places are fairly varied - players can find hallways, mazes, treasure rooms, or even traps.
6. The Twilight Forest
The Twilight Forest is a dimension exploration mod that's mostly geared toward adventure. You will be able to explore fully fledged dungeons, fight diverse boss battles with elaborate mechanics... and more. Meet strange creatures, trade and craft unique items to assist in your travel.
The best parts of this dimension mod are the beautifully haunting vistas that serve as the backdrop as you take down vicious bosses in your journey.
7. The Lost Cities
This mod adds a twist to the usual dimension-adding business. Instead of creating a brand new dimension, it changes the entire overworld instead. With The Lost Cities installed, you spawn in an old and partially destroyed city that takes over the entire overworld. It has highways, bridges, tunnels, and even a functioning subway system.
Tons of new dungeons dotted the landscape, with each of them having spawners. Players can modify the world using various configuration presets (called profiles) to alter how the lost city is generated. The lost cities is one of the most unique dimension mods for Minecraft, as it covers the whole planet with buildings.
8. The Beneath
The Beneath is a mod that adds a massive mining dimension of the same name. Overall, it has the same idea as Minecraft's upcoming update of Deep Dark. The new dimension is as big as the nether, with new mechanics that make the game super brutal.
Mobs spawn in the beneath are twice as dangerous as normal mobs. They lurk in the darkness, ready to pull you out of the light at any second.
9. Atum 2: Return to the Sands
Amongst dimension mods for Minecraft, Atum 2: Return to the Sands is probably the most unique. It expands on the desert biome. It adds a brand new dimension to explore, which is made up of 9 biomes. Each biome has new dungeons, ruins, and more to explore and clear.
However, the main feature of this mod is probably the new mobs. There are 11 new enemies for you to encounter and fight, 5 new animals to tame and hunt, alongside a powerful pharaoh boss with variants to defeat. To aid players in their journey, there are 35+ artifacts with special inbuilt abilities.
10. The Erebus
The Erebus adds a hellish dimension to Minecraft, with many new creatures to slay, things to create and lands to explore. It also has an in-depth magic system and many new dungeons. Mobs in this dimension can pose a big challenge to any player, as they are a lot tougher than normal and very diverse in their AI. Even the passive mobs are not completely harmless.
This mod plays well with other mods and is compatible with both magic and tech mods.
