Minecraft’s Caves & Cliffs Part 2 update is now available on all platforms

Minecraft is one of the most popular video games of all time, and Mojang has continued to release new updates for both the Bedrock Edition (mobile, Windows 10 Edition, consoles, etc.) and the original Java Edition. The massive ‘Caves & Cliffs’ update was first announced last year, but was later split into two updates. Part 1 was released on June 8, as Minecraft version 1.17, and now Part 2 is rolling out.

Caves & Cliffs Part 2, also known as Minecraft version 1.18, is now available on Minecraft Bedrock Edition and Java Edition (via Android Police). The Bedrock update increases the world height and depth, “adding 50% more vertical space to build and explore,” brand new cave generation, new cave and mountain biomes (such as “Lush Caves” and “Jagged Peaks”), revamped ore and biome generation, new music tracks, and many bug fixes. There’s a lot to be excited about, though you will need to create a new world to see some of those changes.

The Java Edition update has most of the same changes, including updated biome and ore generation, new music, taller worlds, and expanded build limits. Minecraft Java Edition now requires Java 17 or later, but as long as you’re opening the game from the official Minecraft Launcher with its own copy of Java, everything will be updated for you.

Bedrock Edition Changelog

Increased World Height and Depth

  • Overworld height and depth for new and existing worlds has been extended to y320 and y-64, opening up more space to explore and build in

World Blending

  • Players can now update existing worlds to include the new overworld height dimensions and world generation features. See our World Upgrading FAQ for more details
  • The bedrock layer at y0 below saved chunks will be replaced with Deepslate and feature new cave generation underneath
  • Biomes and terrain generating across new and existing chunk borders will blend seamlessly, creating natural-looking environmental transitions

New Terrain and Mountain Generation

  • Terrain shape and elevation is no longer always determined by biome, resulting in new biome placements such as deserts on top of hills
  • Mountains are taller than ever and can now generate up to a maximum height of 256 blocks

New Biomes, 3D Biome Generation, and Biome Distribution

  • Added 3D biomes – cave biomes can now generate directly below surface biomes
  • New cave and mountain biomes added, including Jagged Peaks, Meadows, Lush Caves and Dripstone Caves

New Cave Generation

  • Added noise caves – the three primary types of noise caves are large, open Cheese Caves, wide, tunnelling Spaghetti Caves and the narrow, winding Noodle Caves
  • Added aquifers – these create local level bodies of water such as flooded caves or underground lakes

Ore Distribution and Large Ore Veins

  • Added large ore veins – these long formations stretch through cave systems and contain larger deposits of ore than the clusters usually found underground
  • Ore distribution has been adjusted to compensate for the new world height

Mob Spawning

  • Monsters will now only spawn in complete darkness. Players can spawn-proof dark areas such as caves using light sources

New Music

  • Added new music by Lena Raine and Kumi Tanioka
  • Added a new music disc from Lena Raine titled “otherside”. This can be found rarely in Stronghold corridor chests or much more rarely in Dungeon chests
  • Mobile players: To hear the new music, you will need to download the updated Minecraft Original Music Pack, available FREE from Marketplace

New Achievements/Trophies

  • Caves & Cliffs – Free fall from the top of the world (build limit) to the bottom of the world and survive
  • Feels Like Home – Take a Strider for a loooong ride on a lava lake in the Overworld
  • Sound of Music – Make the Meadows come alive with the sound of music from a jukebox
  • Star trader – Trade with a villager at the build height limit

    • Sculk Vein
    • Sculk Catalyst

“Old” World Type

  • Removed “Old” world type from the world creation screen
  • Locked Old worlds to BaseGameVersion 1.17.40
  • Existing Old worlds are still playable but will not be updated with 1.18 features
  • For more information on Old world changes, please see the FAQ article

Menu Panorama

  • Added a new main menu panorama showing the beautiful cliffs of the Overworld

Android External Storage

  • Players with external storage will be migrated to new location at start up, due to storage changes required by Google. You can still play if migration fails by closing the results window
  • With external storage being migrated to its new location in preparation for Google’s new API requirements, you will now lose your data if you uninstall Minecraft, unless you check the box indicating you want to keep your data. We recommend checking this box if you wish to keep your worlds in the event you choose to reinstall Minecraft
  • For more information on storage changes, please see the FAQ article

Known Issues:

  • New world generation in this release is currently incompatible with the ‘Creation of Custom Biomes’ experimental toggle. Expect worlds with custom biome generation to be potentially unstable and for custom biomes to only exist in currently saved out areas of the world.
  • World generation for the Minecraft Overworld has changed entirely with this release. This means old seeds will no longer spawn players in the same positions when playing 1.18. If creators are version locked to an old version of the game, their seeds will generate worlds as they were prior to 1.18.
