Upperwilds - Changelog

2026-09-30 - First update

Added

• Sky islands: floating above the clouds, in two types (icy camp and Japanese), each with a variant for every biome. Rare.
• Land ruins: Forsaken Hamlet, Crumbled Village and Prismarine Ruins, each with a variant for every biome.
• Ice tusks in Snowy Forest.
• New loot for islands and ruins, themed to the biome.

Improved

• Biomes: wider, more natural lake shores, and trees no longer grow into buildings, stand in water or hang over island edges.
• Ruins: no more floating vines, invisible walls or holes in the terrain around them.

Good to know

• New things only appear in newly generated chunks.
• Tested on Minecraft Java 26.3, singleplayer.
• Islands and ruins are adapted from community-made schematics.
• Still planned: more levels, bosses and structures.
