Minecraft features countless maps that players can start in, but for those looking for some weird seeds, these are the best to check out.
The Minecraft terrain generator has a lot on its plate, as it needs to create worlds that span millions of blocks. With so much detail to fill, the terrain generator may create odd or grand-looking sights. Minecraft has over 60 biomes that can home mountains, villages, and other structures. The possibilities for interesting terrain generation are limitless due to the nature of the game.
It is fascinating to see what the terrain generator is capable of creating. Seeds play a large role in influencing terrain generation and dictate many factors that shape one’s Minecraft world. For those looking for some particularly weird Minecraft seeds, there are countless options available, but some are a little more unusual than others.
Updated July 19, 2024, by Aly Azmy: Minecraft’s terrain generator will never cease to amaze. Countless seeds exist for players to jump into, but not all of them offer what one would typically expect. With so much randomness involved, it makes sense that certain seeds would be a little strange. As such, this list has been updated to include even more of the weirdest Minecraft seeds that players can try out. The new featured seeds add a mix of Java and Bedrock-only entries to give each version of Minecraft a chance to shine. 25 Cherry Blossom Crater
Seed: 4669574483087448116
Platform: Java and Bedrock
Coordinates: X= 360 Z= 40
Found by: YourLocalKnight
The cherry blossom biome tends to spawn in small areas, which is a shame. Cherry blossom biomes are beautiful and are worth building a base near. That said, not all cherry blossom biomes form in ways that players would expect; one such player got unlucky by finding a small cherry blossom biome that consisted of only three trees.
This seed has a massive cherry blossom biome that revolves around a deep crater. The biome is generated on a mountain and gives the appearance of a large volcano mound but without the lava. Several caves within the crater can be fun to explore within a survival world. In Bedrock, this seed will have a village within the crater. 24 Uncovered Lush Cave
Seed: 199
Platform: Bedrock and Java
Coordinates: X: -5900 Z: -5100
Found By: JVFA5GCGWF
Lush caves are among the rarer underground biomes, so finding them in Minecraft is always rewarding. Mineshafts are the oldest underground structures (aside from dungeons) and were added during the Beta period of Minecraft. Mineshafts and lush caves are rare to find, but finding both of them under a dark forest is almost unheard of.
The lush cave and mineshaft are uncovered and are stunning to look at. The mineshaft adds a level of detail that makes the generation look especially epic. If players are using Bedrock, a woodland mansion will spawn nearby. While the coordinates are a far distance from spawn, this unusual sight is worth the effort required for players to get there. 23 Vertical Bamboo Island
Seed: -6539431750534164077
Platform: Java
Coordinates: X:0 Z: 0
Found By: Plebiain
The center of a Minecraft world is a special area, and players often seek to decorate the center of the world by building a giant structure to give it the respect it deserves. In this seed, players already have a statue established in the center as a testament to Minecraft’s terrain generation.
The vertical island consists of leaves, bamboo, exposed ore, and a long-hanging glow berry, which is the fascination of this island. There is a lush cave near the island, but a large ocean separates them, and it almost seems as if this island was ripped apart from there. 22 Glowing Village
Seed: 4325227337
Platform: Java
Coordinates: X= 70 Z=-212
Found By: Jackuhlf
Seeing a village entirely on water is an odd sight, especially when it stands above a massive water-filled crater. The crater is deep and will require players to extend their render distance to see the bottom. The glowing squids create a cool effect below the village, giving the village its name.
Directly next to the village is a ruined portal. This seed find is even more mysterious due to the distance between the village and the ruined portal. The view from the village is pretty, as the surrounding areas are full of flowers and trees. There are three black horses close to the spawn point when players first load up the world. Within the village, there are also three adorable black cats near the middle. 21 Doomed Village
Seed: -5244890357831147264
Platform: Bedrock
Coordinates: X= 66 Z= 33
Found By: Fragrant_Result_186
The iron golem in this seed is tasked forever to work double time, and the villagers are doomed to live in fear. In this seed, a pillager tower spawns within a village. Trying this seed out is a must for players who enjoy watching villagers run for their lives as they live a cursed life. This seed is undoubtedly the fastest way to witness a raid.
This seed is only possible in Bedrock, as pillager towers will never spawn too close to a village in Java. Mojang should consider revoking this rule to allow Java players to witness this odd sight, but for the time being, Java players will have to settle for one of the other unusual Minecraft seeds.
