Biome composition

Shares are of the cave volume, from the underground scan. See Caves for the full breakdown.
Caves
What this world's caves are made of, by volume, measured from the save in 4 block cells.
Measured under the built map, and "not found" means not under it. Past its edge the world keeps generating normal vanilla Minecraft chunks, so vanilla cave biomes missing here can still be found out there.
- Deep Dark 0.2%
- Dripstone Caves 0.6%

Inferred. These have no biome of their own in Minecraft, so they are named from the blocks around the cave rather than read from the save.

Questions about 5k World 2
- What is 5k World 2?
-
5k World 2 is a hand-made survival world of 5,120 × 5,120 blocks, made with WorldPainter, World Machine, Gaea, Axiom and WorldEdit, built for Minecraft Java 1.21.5. You download the world folder and play it like any other save, in singleplayer or on your own server.
- How big is 5k World 2?
-
5,120 × 5,120 blocks, so about 26 million blocks of surface. Walking from one edge to the other takes roughly 20 minutes at normal walking speed. The terrain runs from Y -64 to Y 320.
Outside that area the world keeps generating normal vanilla Minecraft chunks, so you never hit a wall, you just leave the built part behind.
- Which Minecraft version does 5k World 2 need?
-
5k World 2 is made for Minecraft Java 1.21.5 and opens in 1.21 and later. Between the two, anything added after the release you load it in is removed or replaced (new biomes load as plains), so 1.21.5 or newer shows the world as built. Releases older than 1.21 cannot open it.
Bedrock players need a converted copy. See the Bedrock notes in the FAQ.
- Which biomes are in 5k World 2?
-
32 in total. The land is mostly Plains (30.0%), Stony Peaks (13.9%), Snowy Plains (10.3%) and Snowy Taiga (6.7%), counted as shares of the land rather than of the whole map.
Water covers 60.3% of the map, and land 39.2%.
By volume this world's caves are Normal Caves (96.3%), Lush Caves (1.7%) and Ice Caves (1.0%). The cave breakdown has the rest.
The full breakdown is further up this page, with every biome and its share.
- Which structures are in 5k World 2?
-
12 of the 20 structure types the scan checks are confirmed present: surface (3/8), underground (5/6), ocean (2/4), portal structures (1/1) and settlements (1/1).
Not confirmed: Abandoned camps (missing), Desert pyramids (missing), Igloos (missing), Pillager outposts (not checked), Swamp huts (missing) and Ancient cities (loot only). "Missing" means the scan looked and it is not in the built map; "loot only" means its chests are here but the structure is not; "possible" means only indirect evidence was found.
The structure list above names every one of them.
- Is 5k World 2 ready to play in survival?
-
Yes. A scan of the world file confirms loot tables, structures, animals and ores, so the survival loop runs from the first night: chests hold the game's real loot tables, mobs spawn as they do anywhere else, and you can mine, farm and build without adding anything. It plays in vanilla Minecraft, with no mods, no datapacks and no creative mode.
The world contents report at the bottom of this page holds the item-by-item detail.
- Where do I download 5k World 2?
-
From the download link on Google Drive, also on the button at the top of this page.
Also available: the PlanetMinecraft project page, which carries the release notes and the known issues for this particular build.
- Can I look at 5k World 2 before downloading it?
-
Yes. Open it in the 3D explorer and fly the real terrain in your browser, with the biomes, the caves and the marked structures. Nothing to install.
How do I install 5k World 2 on Java Edition?
- Unpack the archive you downloaded from Google Drive.
- Open your saves folder. On Windows press
Win+Rand enter%appdata%\.minecraft\saves. On macOS it is~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/saves, on Linux~/.minecraft/saves. - Move the unpacked folder in. It must be the folder that contains
level.dat, not a folder wrapping it. - Restart Minecraft on 1.21.5 or newer and pick the world in singleplayer.
Can I play it on Bedrock, or on a server?
Bedrock needs a converted .mcworld copy, and converted worlds carry their own
quirks around spawn, chests and villagers.
For a server, drop the world folder in as the server's world and start it.
