Small (world size)

Small is a world type in the Console Edition and New Nintendo 3DS Edition, that generates finitely due to the lack of infinite worlds. In the Console Edition, it is exclusive to the Xbox One Edition, PlayStation 4 Edition, and Nintendo Switch Edition.

Console Edition


Small worlds have an area of 1024×1024 blocks (1 Map). An endless sea of water preceded by an invisible barrier surrounds the edge of the world.

Small worlds are able to generate with any of the biomes (albeit at a reduced size) and generated structures available in the current version.

New Nintendo 3DS Edition
Small worlds have an area of 672×672 blocks. An invisible barrier surrounds the edge of the world, similar to the Old world type from Pocket Edition.
