This feature is exclusive to Bedrock Edition. 

The seed templates (or seed picker prior to Bedrock Edition 1.19.0) is an interface in Bedrock Edition that allows the player to choose from a number of preset seeds for generating worlds with specific interesting features near the spawn point.

Usage[]

To get to the seed template interface, from the "Worlds" tab in the initial menu, select "Create New", then "Create New World". Go to the "Advanced" section, and next to the "Seed" input field, there is an button named "Templates". Clicking on this button opens the seed templates. The seed template shows a scroll-able region of named thumbnails to browse the preset seeds. Clicking on a thumbnail returns to the "Create New World" page with the applicable seed filled in.

Discontinued presets[]

Seeds in the seed templates are discontinued when changes in the world generating algorithms cause the seed to appear differently.

Starting in Bedrock Edition 1.10.0, strongholds have less chance of spawning under a village, and with Bedrock Edition 1.11.0, generated structures such as villages and temples spawn at different locations from previous editions. Therefore, the stronghold near the spawn point disappeared from the "Stronghold Village" seed, and there is no longer a village nearby in most seeds that were named for a village.

In Bedrock Edition 1.17.40, several seeds were removed in preparation for the Caves & Cliffs update (Bedrock Edition 1.18), because they were made obsolete by the introduction of significant changes in the terrain generation algorithm.[1] Most of these worlds were restored to the seed templates in 1.18 with new seed values.

Discontinued seeds:

  • Abandoned Village: -1834063422 — introduced in 1.11, replaced with new seed in 1.18.
  • Bamboo Forest: 17780408620 — introduced in 1.11, discontinued in 1.17.40, replaced with new seed in 1.18.
  • Cliffside Village: -334399639 — a swamp village that was also spawned on the cliffs, along with a swamp hut within a 100 meter range between both the player spawn and the village, which no longer appears since 1.11.
  • Epic Cliffs: -736548993 — a Pocket Edition "Amplified Map", discontinued in 1.11.
  • Desert Village: 1136332378 — introduced in 1.11, discontinued in 1.17.40.
  • Epic Jungle: -730362160 — introduced in 1.11, discontinued in 1.17.40.
  • Forest Glade: 1537846859 — introduced in 1.11, used to be presented in Minecraft Trial. Large abandoned village 1181 blocks NNE from spawn point, well populated with farms and livestock. No longer appears since Bedrock Edition 1.18.0.
  • Ice Spikes Village: 1410403532 — frigid area of ice spikes near a spruce-wood forest. There is an igloo at (63, 64, 173), and it has a basement, but it's bugged. The villager/zombie villager may not be there, as there is stone where they are supposed to spawn, thus suffocating them to death. Replaced by Snowy Village in 1.11.
  • Jungle Temple: 1558083136 — Mass vegetation encircling a jungle temple. Replaced by Epic Jungle in 1.11.
  • Mountain View Village: 1474137368 — a village in a Taiga-Forest landscape with a distant mountain view. There's a dungeon (with a zombie spawner and two chests) centermost in the village, which no longer appears since 1.11.
  • Outpost Ahead: 190800072: — introduced in 1.11. The outpost is on a separate island than spawn. Discontinued in 1.17.40.
  • Savanna Island: -560637684 — a seed for challenging island survival. Discontinued in 1.11.
  • Snow Day: -1237332647 — old seed that existed prior to 1.9.
  • Spooky Mansion: -396676922 — introduced in 1.11. A rare seed that generates a mansion a short walk from the spawn point. Discontinued in 1.17.40, then replaced with a new seed value in 1.18.
  • Stronghold Village: -1804478546 — a village concealing a stronghold at least 20 meters below, with a nearby village about 150 blocks away. Withdrawn in 1.10, replaced by Stronghold Below after the 1.11 update.
  • Survival Islands: 2189910 — a succession of islands primed for survival. Replaced by Survival Island (singular not plural) after the 1.11 update.
  • Taiga Bay: 805966260 — player spawns near a river, surrounded by different taiga biome variations. The nearest igloo has no ladder shaft underneath. Discontinued in 1.17.40, replaced with new seed value in 1.18.
  • Vast Desert Oasis: 961601796 — A large desert surrounding a small-scale savanna. Since 1.11, a village generates in the desert near the spawn point, as well as in the small savanna. Discontinued in 1.11.
    • Village Island: -1060246543 — A village island with 2 or 3 villages overlapping on a small island with minimal forests, encircled by a large sea. The village no longer appears since 1.11. Note: The village houses and farms that genearate spawn in a weird state, with many houses overlapping, and farms cutting off the houses.
