About this project

What does Better Survive add?

Better Survival is a massive expansion for Minecraft 1.16.5 that stays true to the original game's spirit while significantly broadening its horizons. This "Vanilla+" add-on is perfect for players who feel that the base game lacks depth in late-game progression, automation, and combat variety.
