The Swift

The Swift is a fan-made dimension for Minecraft: a bright, peaceful world of coral-pink meadows, frosted trees and pools of rainbow-coloured ichor under a turquoise sky. It is full of souls and song. Gentle Singers, bouncing blubs and patient echo golems live here alongside hungry swiftlings, and deep in the sculk, three bosses are waiting.

You reach it through the great reinforced deepslate frame at the heart of every ancient city, by playing it a melody. On some nights, a rift tears open in the Overworld and offers a shortcut.

About this edition

The Java Edition mod has everything in the Swift: flowing ichor you can swim in, the full sky cycle with auroras, and a Soul Burn effect you can see in your inventory. Melodies can be played with redstone too.
