For every world randomly generated in Minecraft is another world that can be shared, block for block. By looking at your world’s “seed,” other players can take that seed and create an exact copy, minus buildings and changes you’ve made after the world was generated. It’s an awesome way to experience environments you’d otherwise miss out on if you simply stuck to random generation. Some are obviously better than others, providing an abundance of one resource or giving you access to powerful items right off the bat. If you’ve got a PlayStation 4, these Minecraft seeds are among the best to explore and enjoy.
Hidden secrets
Seed: 2065486297
Coming across an abandoned town is always a treat. It’s an opportunity to break down an entire town without feeling the guilt of displacing a dozen villagers (you heartless monster). But the real fun of this seed comes from the town’s hidden secret. Spelunk into the nearby ravine the town is built on and you’ll reveal a stronghold, aching to be explored.
Forests for days
Seed: -192460232
Sick of spawning into a world void of trees? Hop into this seed and you’ll have all the trees you’ll ever need, but it goes even further than that. Any time you come across a forest, more often than not it’ll stretch far past the end of your vision, from jungle biomes to winter wonderlands.
Time for some spelunking
Seed: 2033394339
As soon as you spawn, climb the nearest mountain. Just at the edge of your vision, you’ll notice a large mansion. Not a bad start, but underneath is a deep and sprawling cave system for you to explore. Bring plenty of wood because you won’t be resurfacing anytime soon.
A bit of everything
Seed: -2109369554
It isn’t uncommon getting tossed into a world that appears to be one large biome. With this seed, biomes are never too far from where you’re standing, providing easy access to a change of scenery at a moment’s notice. And it doesn’t hurt to be near a town for some easy raiding.
Towns in all directions
Seed: 1418505413
This seed provides you with swamp lands and near endless plains, but its most striking detail are the towns. You’ll find a town to your left, right, behind, and ahead of you from the moment you spawn. They’re close enough that it’s feasible to connect each one with a roadway, and then building upon. Perfect for anyone wanting to roleplay.
Roleplaying as Chuck Noland
Seed: -1574838061
If you’ve ever wondered what Chuck Noland’s life was like in Cast Away, this is the seed for you. It spawns you on an isolated island, away from civilization and far, far away from the nearest FedEx. Best location to reenact the film, minus Wilson.
A bamboo lifestyle
Seed: 1573577239
Get ready to fight off pillagers. As soon as you spawn, you’re plopped into the middle of a town hugging a bamboo forest. The town’s most notable feature is its blacksmith. A pillager watchtower was built at the edge of the town, ready to pelt villagers with arrows and oppression.
Discount Hawaii
Seed: 1408425816
Rather than spawn on a continent, this seed forces you to develop your sea legs. It has a habit of creating chains of islands as well as isolated ones. It’s basically Hawaii. As an added bonus, you’ll find plenty of underwater temples.
Just give me stuff, please
Seed: 812064126
It isn’t everyday you’ll spawn into an ideal location. To some, the fun of survival is making a life on scarce resources. For others, having a head start is far more enjoyable. We won’t judge you for the way you play. This seed is for those that want an easy start without the hassle of hoarding resources. You’ll find temples—underwater and above—, shipwrecks, and plenty of towns to raid.
Use your imagination
Seed: 2066
Minecraft generates some really unique locations on its own, but this one in particular has rolling hills, tall mountains, and plenty of distinct landscapes to stretch your god-like powers. It’s a solid choice for survival, but better suited for creative needs.
