Best 1.21 Minecraft Seeds – Xbox, PS4, PS5, & All Platforms!

Folks like me don't want to keep changing worlds to find the best seeds in Minecraft—you want it now while the inspiration for playing is still fresh! I've gathered 15 of the most exciting seeds we've ever found in 1.21 to help you start a new, exhilarating world quickly on any platform.

Best Minecraft 1.21 Seeds on PC, PS5, PS4, and Xbox Consoles

Each of these seeds is available for every single platform, including PC, mobile, Nintendo Switch, XBOX, PS4, and PS5. The biomes and general geography of each seed remain the same for every platform while the structures may change depending on the console and version. This is reflected in the coordinate tables provided for each seed, which show identical geographic coordinates but different structural coordinates. PC players will have the Java coordinates while Minecraft for Windows, mobile gamers, and all console players will use the Bedrock coordinates.

15 - Round Mountain

Seed: -8641908898866096199

With Minecraft being so square, it's interesting to see a mountain with a rounder appearance. After spawning into the world, you'll find yourself on top of this mountain. Climb over its peak and down the back of it to come across a Dripstone Cave. If you prefer the Deep Dark, a ravine in the area will get you there pretty quickly.

14 - Lush Life

Seed: 1785253357364127969

Entering this world drops you directly into a large Lush Cave. You'll be able to choose whether to stay only in the cave or venture out into the Overworld through the hole in the cavern's ceiling. The path on the right takes you through a long tunnel, eventually ending in a shallow chamber. It's the ideal place to set up your base far from prying eyes. On the outside of the cave, Java players will find a Jungle Temple. Bedrock players will have access to a Plains Village instead.

13 - Holly Ruins

Seed: -6573840699090109304

Every Minecraft player needs a Trail Ruins seed on hand. These structures allow you to do the exploration and treasure-hunting parts of Minecraft without having to battle your way through hundreds of foes. This seed is particularly peaceful for players wanting a more relaxing world. Java and Bedrock players will find two Trail Ruins and a Taiga Village in their starting area. Each village will give you the tools needed to survive while exploring the ruins.

12 - Island Mansion

Seed: 5658957973907698269

Woodland Mansions only spawn in Roofed Forests, so they're usually only seen on a large plot of land covered in dark oak trees. This seed is special because its closest Woodland Mansion for Bedrock players is floating on an island. When you enter into the world, the first thing you'll see is the ocean, then this Woodland Mansion and it's small island! Entering this seed and living within this island Mansion is sure to be a good time.

11 - Dripstone Cherry Cliffs

Seed: -8773448492846440583

This Plains Village was built both on top of a Cherry Grove hill and on the sheer cliffs on its side. They've managed to bring both animals and crops to the hillside, making it the perfect place to set up shop. You can clear the area of mobs by using torches to light it up. Since the platforms are on a very sheer cliff, it'll be extremely difficult for mobs besides Phantoms to climb up and threaten you and the villagers.

Woodland Mansion: 408, -632	Ancient City: 136, -44, 168

10 - Snowy Grove Mansion

Seed: -6840183678355382874

A Grove cuts through the Dark Forest in this world. Its white snow contrasts harshly with the dark greens and browns of the Dark Forest, making the Woodland Mansion stand out even more than usual. Bedrock players will have an Ancient City beneath the Grove instead of this Mansion.

Grove Mansion: 426, -489	Ancient City: -488, -43, -632

9 - Jungle Temple Protectors

Seed: -7083917331153223960

Usually, the only temples you find with Desert Villages are Desert Temples. This seed switches things up by mashing a Desert Village with a Jungle Temple! One of the villagers' homes has collided with the temple. When you enter the home, you come face to face with the temple's mossy cobblestone walls. While this unique combination is only available for Java players, Bedrock gamers will find a Desert Temple to loot.

8 - Snowy Stone Glacier

Seed: -2584325567534078422

These stony islands are the glaciers of the warm ocean. You'll spawn on the rightmost stony island covered with Dark and Spruce trees. Use these trees to craft a trusty pickaxe and gather all of the ores on both of these islands. If you need materials for smelting these ores, I recommend harvesting the kelp growing alongside the island.

7 - Cozy Lush

Seed: -5334170851732370002

A small Lush Cave is a great start for a cozy underground base. This one is especially great for a hidden base build because it is only accessible through a small hole in the floor of a separate cavern. That cave is next to the surface so you won't have any issues getting above and below ground.

6 - Turtle Kelp Beach

Seed: -4416163731890238821

Beaches are the only biomes in Minecraft that spawn turtles. This beach is home to both turtles and a shipwreck with Warm Ocean Ruins in the nearby ocean. Bedrock players will not have a shipwreck here, but they will have one on the beach to the right.

5 - Trial Portal Room

Seed: 7759672311267979567

Trial Chambers are the newest structure in Minecraft 1.21, so seeds containing them at the start like this one are welcome sights. This Trial Chamber is even cooler for Java players because it holds a ruined portal. The portal's Netherrack seeps through the walls, contrasting nicely with the orange and blue hues of the chambers. Its chest contains a couple of obsidian and a gold helmet enchanted with Fire Protection IV.

4 - Jungle River Cruise

Seed: -1031314622251086658

This Jungle is riddled with rivers that make it perfect for exploring by boat. While sailing around, Bedrock players will come across a Jungle Temple floating in a larger lake. In contrast, Java players will find a shipwreck on a nearby beach. All players will find a Trial Chamber in a Lush Cave biome beneath the Jungle.

3 - Trial Chamber Preparation

Seed: -3645586091663890742

Trial Chambers are the new structure introduced in the 1.21 update. If you want to get a good look at them without going in unprepared, this Plains Village has you covered. The Plains Village is located near both Spawn and a ruined portal, which is above the Trial Chamber. Use the village to equip yourself before digging down to face the trials.

2 - Iceberg Mooshroom Ring

Seed: 8537879577731769636

The hole in the center of this Mushroom Island contains a Deep Frozen Ocean with spikes of iceberg. The right side of the island is in the same biome while the left side is in a regular Deep Cold Ocean. Players in both versions will find Ocean Monuments, shipwrecks, and Cold Ocean Ruins beneath the ice.

1 - Icy Mountain Rarities

Seed: -4013133830670799543

While Pillager Outposts are only slightly uncommon, seeds placing them next to a Woodland Mansion are a rare treat. In this seed, the outpost stands proudly on a dirt platform extending out from a snowy mountain. A Woodland Mansion rests to its right, its cozy appearance a contrast to the dangers it contains. Visiting these structures will force you to battle through hordes of monsters and pillagers in your attempts to gain treasure and glory.
