List of All New Biomes in minecraft 1.19 The wild update

The Minecraft 1.18 update is still making news because of its game-changing world generation. But that’s not enough to keep players from getting excited about Minecraft 1.19: The Wild Update. Stakes are really high for this update after the success of 1.18, and from the looks of it, we won’t be disappointed. From new mobs to cool features, there’s a lot to look forward to. But for now, let’s focus on the upcoming new biomes in Minecraft 1.19 update. Our list has some confirmed as well as a couple of speculated biomes you can expect to find in Minecraft Bedrock and Java Editions. But if you still haven’t gotten around to trying the recent update, use our best Minecraft 1.18 seeds list to make the most out of it. With that said, let’s dive right in and explore all the new biomes Minecraft 1.19 The Wild Update will have to offer.

New Biomes in Minecraft 1.19 Update (January 2022)Our list of biomes isn’t ranked in any way. So, you can explore the different biomes as per your interest using the table below.

Deep Dark Caves

As the name suggests, this biome was originally planned for the 1.18 Caves & Cliffs Part 2 update. But due to developmental delays, we will finally see this new biome in Minecraft 1.19 update. Deep dark caves are the most dangerous type of caves in the game. They spawn only below the Y=-1 level of height.

Deep Dark Biome

Unlike other cave biomes, including the recently added lush caves and dripstone caves seeds, Deep dark caves won’t have any reliable light sources like lava. Though, you might find glowing lichen at certain locations within the cave. As for the mobs, you don’t have to worry about bumping into a creeper in the dark. The spawning of regular mobs will be reduced in the deep dark caves. However, there’s something more sinister (more on this below) that you should worry about at this depth.

Ancient Cities

Within the deep dark caves, at times, you can encounter a structure called ancient cities. The easiest way to notice this structure is through iconic skulk blocks. These are dark blue in color and have a distinguished look. Following the skulk blocs will lead you to a castle-like structure that is home to the Warden.

Warden is a highly threatening boss mob in Minecraft 1.19. It is also the first blind mob in the game. The Warden’s presence alone makes the deep dark caves one of the best new biomes in Minecraft 1.19 update.

But defeating the Warden is no child’s play. In its territory, you get affected by a darkness effect, which reduces the in-game brightness for the player. Then, Warden attacks the player based on the sound and vibrations they make. It can kill you with just two hits, even if you have a full netherite armor. So, unlike any other mob fight, you have to rely on stealth and game sense more than your combat skills.

New Swamps Biome

On the not so sinister side of things are the swamps in our list of new biomes in Minecraft. Yeah, we already have swamps in the game, but if we are being honest, no one likes them. Keeping that in mind, the developers at Minecraft are now revamping the swamp by adding mangrove trees, new overall generation, and a lot of mud. Unlike soil, mud is going to be a new multi-purpose block in the game, which you can even use to build houses.

Through this revamp, Minecraft 1.19 is also giving us a variety of frogs in the game. They also have eggs, tadpoles, and color variants that create a whole experience around them. Additionally, swamps will also feature fireflies at nighttime, making it one of the best-looking Minecraft biomes in general.

Mangrove Swamps

As a variant of the swamp biome, the upcoming Minecraft 1.19 update is also adding mangrove swamps. It will look like a combination of jungle and swamp biomes, and you can find mangrove trees, mud blocks, and swamp mobs here. Also, expect to find a lot of propagule, a hanging vegetative structure on trees in this biome.

Speculated New Biomes in Minecraft 1.19

Beyond the already confirmed biomes, there are a few rumors and speculations around other biomes too. Here’s a list of our guesses at the upcoming biomes and biome-based changes in the next update.

  • Birch forests can get a few additional features, and a structural revamp to make them more interesting.
  • Minecraft first teased a new savanna update in 2018 with ostriches, termites, and new trees. And Minecraft 1.19 might finally lead us to the realization of those teasers.
  • Jungle and swamp villages might also find a way into the game in the Minecraft 1.19 update. We already have models for villagers from both of these biomes in the game. And with the confirmation of mud huts, swamp villages, followed by jungle villages, this might become a reality soon.
  • revamped Badlands biome was also a part of teasers in the past with tumbleweed, vultures, and flowering cactuses. And the 1.19 Wild update is a pretty nice time to implement it.
  • Finally, the Minecraft deserts are pretty interesting as they are right now. But they can be an eyesore due to their repetitive look. However, from the 2019 biome-chooser teaser, we can expect new additions like palm trees, oasis, and meercats to the desert biome.

Get Ready to Explore New Biomes in Minecraft 1.19

Between Minecraft 1.18’s beautiful mountains seeds and Minecraft 1.19’s revamped wildlife, I am definitely a bigger fan of the latter. And since the update is in the early testing stage, we are just scratching the surface. Who knows what else we might discover as the release date inches closer. Meanwhile, we also have a guide to existing Minecraft biomes if you haven’t explored all of them yet. They look even better than usual if you turn on the best Minecraft 1.18 shaders in the latest update. Though, you might have to install Optifine in Minecraft 1.18 to get started. Coming back to the Minecraft 1.19 update, there’s a lot to unpack here. So, don’t forget to tell us what more you expect from the new Wild update in the comments below. Who knows, your guessed feature might end up in the update, arriving later this year.
