Minecraft will add its first new dimension in 14 years: The Sift
Mojang has announced The Sift, a new dimension for Minecraft Java and Bedrock planned for 2027. It will debut first in Minecraft Dungeons 2, scheduled for release on 29 September 2026.
Mojang has announced The Sift, a new Minecraft dimension that is planned to join the Overworld, the Nether and the End in 2027. It will be the first new dimension added to the game since The End arrived in 2011.
The Sift will appear first in Minecraft Dungeons 2, which is scheduled for release on 29 September 2026. Mojang has not given a firm launch date for the base game.
The new dimension’s planned features
The Sift was revealed during Minecraft Live on 26 September. Mojang said the dimension will introduce new biomes, mobs and new ways to play and explore, but has withheld most details so far.
Players will be able to experience The Sift in Minecraft Dungeons 2 before it reaches Java and Bedrock Edition. The broadcast also showed one of the mobs that inhabits the new dimension.
Minecraft World planned for London
Mojang also announced that Minecraft World will open at Chessington World of Adventures Resort in London in 2027. The attraction is planned to include a Minecraft-themed hotel, themed rooms, a deep-sea diner and the world’s first Minecraft rollercoaster, with indoor and outdoor sections.
