Minecraft 1.19 Biomes – All New Additions! – MelonCube

The Wild Update added quite a bit to explore, but many players have yet to see all the new biome features this update has in store. After all, they can be quite hard to find if you don’t know what you’re looking for! Today we review all new Minecraft 1.19 biomes and their features that make them too much fun to ignore.

Mangrove Swamp Biome

Up on the surface, there is a new mangrove swamp entirely different from the swamp biomes we have come to know. Its mud-covered coasts are lined with mangrove trees that tower overhead, the new frog mobs hop happily from lily pad to lily pad, and the mangrove roots make traversing the water a maze more immersive than any biome before.

Players who find a Mangrove swamp will be rewarded with the new mangrove wood blocks, mud that can be turned into bricks using wheat, and plenty of frogs to bring back home and breed. Just be careful not to get lost among the trees!

Deep Dark Biome

Far below the surface, in the darkest of depths, is a new biome that will put your courage to the test! The deep dark is a unique underground biome where no regular mobs spawn, and only eerie silence can be found. However, if one keeps going deeper, the new sculk blocks will begin to cover the ground. A dark moss-like block that glows ever so slightly like that of the night sky.

But be warned, for among the skulk are screechers that will alert a monster that sees only by sound. Upon the third screech, the warden appears and chases until you are found!

Ancient Cities

While not a biome, it can be as large as one at times! Abandoned cities are found in the depths of the deep dark biome and generate within caverns that stretch out far into the distance. Structure after structure lines their empty streets, and each are filled with loot that can’t be beat.

But remember, it is still the deep dark biome. The warden will not take kindly to finding players wandering their lonely abode.
