What is the Beneath? What is the Beneath?

The Beneath is a network of very deep caves, directly below the Overworld.
This dimension is balanced around mid to late Primitive Age. It's more dangerous than the surface, so we recommend a full set of bronze armor and a metal shield as a minimum, as well as plenty of food, water, and other tools.

It differs from the usual Nether experience in a few ways:

  • You enter it differently
  • Water doesn't instantly evaporate
  • A bed works like normal
  • Traveling Beneath is no faster than in the Overworld


In return, you can find resources like Kaolin Clay, Graphite, richer and more exposed ore veins, as well as other treasures.

Entering the Beneath

To travel Beneath, simply stand on overworld bedrock for a little while.
To return, stand directly below the ceiling bedrock in the same fashion.

It's a good idea to make a note of where you entered, so you can return to the same place in the overworld whenever you're ready to leave.
