It won’t be long until you’ll feel that the world is yours. But a little extra know-how is always helpful! We’ve packed this guide with hints and tips gathered from years of experience. You’ll learn about the different biomes waiting to be discovered and what you might find in each one, the mobs you’ll encounter on your journey, and some of the vital items you’ll need to survive and thrive.
