As a game, Minecraft is known for giving the player a world full of opportunity and complete freedom, with the only limit being the player’s imagination. With each update, the game grows and brings new elements to the fold, but few additions have been as massive as the dimensions. Both The Nether and The End brought new landscapes to the game and worlds completely alien to the players at the time.

Minecraft: Things To Do If You're Bored
Players who have been playing a lot of Minecraft and getting bored should try out these fun new activities to spice things up.
Naturally, those additions inspired the game’s active modding community. Over the years, numerous mods produced by the fans added new dimensions of great variety to the world. Each had a creative way of getting into it, adding new mobs, sets, and activities. Some mods focus on one dimension, while others add dozens in one swoop.
9 Better End
A Known Realm Reimagined
- Mod Link
- By Quiqueck
This mod doesn’t add a new dimension but changes and enhances an existing one. As per its name, The End is the dimension that represents the final goal of a Minecraft playthrough, which is killing the Ender Dragon. However, the one-note dimension doesn’t introduce many new blocks or mobs.
This mod completely overhauls the End into a realm that matches the Overworld in richness and variety. It adds 24 new biomes, such as the floating azure woods, multiple new blocks, and mobs, turning the End into a lush world of the eternal night that will prove incredibly interesting and exciting to explore.
8 Bumblezone
The World Of Bees
- Mod Link
- By telepathicgrunt
Bumblezone seems like a peculiar concept at first, but it ultimately gets the most from it. The mod adds a new dimension stylized after bees and beehives. It can be entered by throwing an ender pearl into a beehive, allowing for transportation into the brand new dimension, which is stylized to look like a giant beehive.
The mod introduces new mobs, such as the bee queen, a brand new set of armor, and new blocks. The Bumblezone dimension is also sprinkled with signs of life and nature, which makes it more exciting to explore and grants the player an opportunity to survive for longer periods.
7 Good Night’s Sleep
The Dream And The Nightmare
- Mod Link
- By ModdingLegacy
This mod capitalizes on the concept of a dream. As many people have vivid dreams, it would make sense for the Minecraft protagonist to be the same. It adds two new dimensions, one for the good dream and one for the nightmare, which can be accessed by creating an enhanced bed using the mushrooms of hope and despair.

Players will need a Grindstone to repair and disenchant their weapons in Minecraft. Here's how you can get it.
In the dream world, nothing can harm the player. It is full of lush spaces and growing trees, the mobs are friendly, and the players are free to explore this world as they wish. The nightmare is the complete opposite; it is a gloomy, dark world full of dangerous creatures and lava; navigating through it is difficult but worth finding the negative ore.
6 The Lost Cities
Ruins Of Civilization
- Mod Link
- By McJty
This mod puts a creative spin on the concept of dimensions, as instead of creating a separate place accessible via the portal, it is a new type of world generation. It changes the usual Minecraft world filled with wilderness with only a few rare villages into an abandoned, post-apocalyptic city that spans the entire world.
The city is breathtaking in how much detail and variety it encompasses. It stretches across all biomes, integrating its structure into the intricate system of the world. There are roads, districts, and even underground subways. A feeling of scale persists through the mod, providing a completely new experience for the player.
5 Undergarden
The World Below
- Mod Link
- By Quek04
The caverns in Minecraft are one of the most alluring aspects of the world due to their mystery and endless prospects of venturing into them. The Undergarden is the mod that capitalizes on this element by introducing an entire realm that is located beneath the bedrock of the Overworld, that being the Undergarden.
The Undergarden introduces 15 new underground biomes and multiple blocks and mobs. The dimension has the resources for the player to survive in it, which creates the potential for an exciting experience. The portal to this dimension is made of stone and requires an iron, gold, and diamond catalyst.
4 Advent of Ascension
An Array Of Worlds
- Mod Link
- By Schimiguy
Advent of Ascension is among the most ambitious mods Minecraft has ever known, adding so much that it creates a practically new game. It adds multiple mobs into the present dimension and over a dozen new ones, each of which can be accessed by making a specific watch and using it on the portal.
The dimensions included vary and are very unique and different, each includes their own blocks and mobs, in some cases even friendly merchants. Some dimensions include the world of the Creepers, the ancient and untamed prehistoric world, or a chain of underground caverns that has never seen the light.
3 Twilight Forest
The Mystical Woods
- Mod Link
- By Benimatic
Twilight Forest chooses quality over quantity. Inspired by the Aether mod, it adds one new dimension that is always covered in darkness. It includes multiple new mobs and biomes and is completely self-sustainable, meaning that the player can start from scratch and have all the resources necessary for survival and progress available to them.
The Twilight Forest maintains a sense of progression, unlocking new biomes individually. Perhaps most notably, it adds an array of dungeons with unique bosses, such as the Lich’s Castle or the Naga’s Maze. Those come with new layouts and materials, from which the player can make new weapons or sets of armor.
2 Divine RPG
Fantastical Realms
- Mod Link
- By Velocityraptor
Divine RPG restructures the Minecraft world, adding an overarching sense of progression similar to many RPG games. It makes the game harder by adding more dangerous mobs in the Overworld that can roam during the day, as well as more mobs and bosses to the Nether and the End.

The mod introduces eight new dimensions, each with its own mobs and sets of armor. Five of those are floating islands, each with its own unique coloring, style, and atmosphere. The other three worlds are distinct: an infinite dungeon, an Overworld covered in snow, and a multi-layered dark world full of hostile mobs.
1 Aether
The World In The Clouds
- Mod Link
- By TheAetherTeam
One of the classic Minecraft mods that some even believed to be a part of the base game, Aether, is the first major dimensional mod for the game. Unsurprisingly, it is the opposite of Nether, a floating world themed after Paradise with angels and floating creatures. The ability to ride flying pigs and cows was introduced to navigate the world.
While Aether is a dangerous realm, unlike Nether, it has wood, animals, and other resources necessary for long-term survival, allowing the players to begin their playthrough in Aether. The mod also adds three new dungeons with different mobs, bosses, and difficulty levels. Overall, Aether is an intricately designed, engaging world.
