Sift Dimension Backport
In an astonishing turn of events, the Sift Dimension was announced on Minecraft Live yesterday (at the time of me typing this) not only for the spin off games, but also for VANILLA.
Which is crazy, since I have played the game since elementary school and now have a full time job, and not a single dimension was ever added. It was thought to be impossible.

No features are live yet in vanilla Minecraft, but this backport will remain completely faithful to Mojang's official announcements. We'll roll out updates and fixes as soon as new information drops!
How do I get there?
In vanilla Minecraft? I have no idea! Nothing has been shown other than a single 3 seconds of footage. In the mod, just type /siftteleport
Planned Features
- Brand new dimension: the Sift!
- Custom sky and grass and water colors in the dimension
- Custom trees in the Sift dimension
- Custom foilage in the Sift dimension
- New blocks in the Sift dimension
- Blub mob
