If you’re looking for a Minecraft seed that gives you a natural-made arena of sorts for you and your friends to duke it out in, then this is the one for you.

You’ll find a couple of Villages nearby, two Pillager Outposts, and even a Ruined Portal to boot. The natural ringed mountain area makes a perfect little arena for all of your Hunger Games and manhunt multiplayer fun with friends. Plus, those villages and outposts are great for getting supplies.

2. A World of Desert Temples

Seed: 5118521823509525666

The great thing about Minecraft is the random wonders and mysterious things you’ll find while scavenging the blocky world. This Xbox Minecraft seed makes it incredibly easy to find seven seriously cool Desert Temples, which are all within 1,000 blocks of each other.

Venture deep within the Desert Temples, and you’ll be rewarded with Diamonds, Netherite, and all sorts of materials. The perfect place for all you budding archeologists out there!

3. Biggest Jungle Ever

Top 15 best seeds in Minecraft 1.20, biggest jungle ever

Seed: 23329338

It’s like a jungle out there… (Sorry, couldn’t resist!) Yes, this seed will spawn you right next to a huge rainforest brimming with exotic animals like pandas, parrots, and ocelots. Not only that, but you’ll also come across plenty of regular mobs like sheep, pigs, chickens, and cows wandering through the brush as well.

In fact, this jungle is so mahoosive, it’ll take you absolutely ages just getting from one side to the other, so we’d suggest packing your bags so that you’re prepared before heading into the wilds of this lush, overgrown thicket.

4. Tunnel Straight to the Deep Dark

Seed: 2625094755235955149

If you’re wanting to explore the Deep Dark but don’t want to mess around with cheats or spending hours on end mining away, then this seed is perfect.

It drops you right at the top of a tunnel which worms its way underground and leads you right to the Deep Dark. From here, you can make your way to an Ancient City, but just watch out as there are plenty of pesky monstrosities inside who’ll want to put you six feet under. Speaking of Ancient Cities…

5. Six Ancient Cities Within 500 Blocks of Each Other

Seed: 241999826474707027

Ancient cities are pretty hard to find, but what if you spawned slap bang in the middle of not one, not two, but six of the elusive structures. Of course, they largely exist underground, so you’ll have to do a wee bit of spelunking and exploring to track them all down.

Nevertheless, once you’ve discovered one, you’ll likely bump into a rather charming chap called the Warden, especially if you stumble upon his Skulk Shriekers, which are kind of like his own personal alarm bells. In all seriousness, we’d suggest giving him a wide berth, as he can be a bit of a nasty pasty. You’ve been warned!

6. Elevated Outpost & Igloo

Seed: -4836534706661314810

If you’re looking for something completely unique, then you should definitely try out this Minecraft Xbox seed from Reddit user YourLocalKnight. What makes it so different from the rest is the fact that it comes with an outpost, village, Ruined Portal, and igloo, all at slightly high altitudes. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an outpost and igloo up at this angle, especially with so many resources surrounding it.

You can find it at the coordinates: 200, 90, 175 to immediately dive into this madness. Plus, there’s a majestic Ice Plains Spikes biome nearby, along with a few caves you can spelunk in.

7. Best Windswept Seed

Seed: 1001

If you’re looking for a Minecraft Xbox seed that’ll drop you right into the heart of stunning landscapes, then look no further. This seed has an incredible windswept forest and mega taiga on the water found at -1690, -1860, and tons more windswept terrain throughout.

That not enough? There’s also an ice spike village at -1540, -880, and a lush cave with an exposed mineshaft at -96, -576. This is truly a treasure trove of blocky beauty.

8. Huge Mushroom Island Right Next to Spawn

Seed: 5603243610516950345

Ever wanted to build your base on a gigantic mushroom island? I can hear you shrugging from here. Okay, but what if I were to tell you that hostile mobs cannot spawn here, meaning you’ll likely never meet a dastardly Skeleton or a Spider as long as you live on this island. Now we have your attention!

Yes, in this seed, you’ll spawn very close to a very rare and very large mushroom island which has the potential to be the perfect place to call home. Simply head forward and swim across the ocean from where you spawn, and you’ll soon stumble upon this unusual biome.

9. Exposed Dripstone Cave Near Spawn

Seed: 486881

Another excellent find that makes for a really interesting island to start off on. This seed drops you into an area that contains a couple of large exposed Dripstone Caves for you and your buddies to explore.

Usually, they’re really rare and hard to find, so if you’re looking for a fun spelunking adventure, this may be the perfect seed for you.

10. Huge Lake Surrounded by Badland Mountains and Forest

Seed: 11464761745

One of the best Minecraft 1.20 Xbox One seeds is this gorgeous one that features a lake surrounded by badland mountains on one side and a dense forest area on the other. It can be found at these coordinates: 2110, 64, -390

It’s a perfect place for those wanting to do a bit of building in a picturesque area, so they can kick back and admire the scenery after a long day of exploring Ancient Cities and strongholds.

11. Survival Island with Orchard and Hidden Treasure

Seed: 2283394501560945159

Survival islands are a really fun way to play Minecraft in both solo and multiplayer. Basically, it’s like the movie Cast Away. You know, that pic where Tom Hanks gets marooned on an island with nothing but a volleyball called Wilson and his thoughts. Surely, I’m ringing some bells here?

Anyway, players must survive as long as they can on a small island while eking out an existence by hunting, fishing, and living off the fat of the land. And this seed is perfect just for that as it features three distinct biomes on one bite-sized isle. Oh, and calling all pirates! Yes, there’s even booty to be discovered as well!

12. Underground Base

Seed: -378299623338709767

Sometimes, the best seeds are the ones that give you the perfect environment to create your dream base, and this is exactly one of those. The seed has a huge underground cavern at 1165, 120, 256 that is just ripe for building an epic base. What makes this a standout from other underground cavernous areas are the tall pillars stretching up from the ground. If you ask me, that’s some prime real estate for various areas of your underground base.

On top of that, there’s also a nice desert village close to the spawn to help you get set up with materials and other bits of gear.

Close by to the desert village, you’ll also find two desert temples, giving you the opportunity to net even more rare goodies.

13. Woodland Mansion on Jungle Biome

Seed: 6658650853035838587

This is quite possibly one of the coolest Minecraft 1.20 Xbox seeds we’ve come across recently, and it’s all thanks to user u/Fragrant_Result_186 over on Reddit. This seed offers up a huge Woodland Mansion on a Jungle Biome, giving it a seriously unique look. The mansion itself is set atop a large island in the middle of the water, surrounded by stretches of jungle terrain at coordinates -721, 113, -818.

With the use of a beacon, it’s possible to turn it into a mansion on a floating island. If you ask us, that’s a pretty cool idea and a home we’d be showing off to pretty much everyone we know who’d let us.

14. Huge Ocean Crater

Seed: 4325227337

If you’re looking for something a little more unusual, then you might be interested in this Minecraft 1.20 seed that includes a huge crater in the middle of the ocean. That’s right, it’s just a big ol’ pit surrounded by water, ready for you to build the mega villain base of your dreams. The crater itself can be found at 124, 108, -194.

In addition to that, you’ll find a mini floating island (202,72,-33) and a Village and Outpost next to each other (126,130,-720).

The most unusual part of this seed? You’ll find a chest under the bedrock (and some lava) in the middle of the crater. It’s impossible to actually open it, as in Creative mode you’ll just fall off the map.

15. Huge Exposed Dripstone Cave Beneath a Cherry Grove

Seed: 2725214931529352700

This is a really interesting seed as it looks like a block of TNT has erupted and fractured the inside of a mountain below a Cherry Grove biome. Inside, you’ll find an abandoned mineshaft, lava pools, and lots of copper and iron ore to make your own.

Really, it’s a spelunker’s dream come true, as the tunnel goes on for many, many miles. In short: head to the coordinates -44, 150, -370 as there’s a big ol’ adventure waiting to happen!
