(Previously referred to as Plenty O' Biomes) Do you want to expand your Minecraft world's biomes? Expansive Biomes adds more than 20 new biomes to the game for you to seek out and explore, with more on the way!

This is my first attempt on biomes, so I hope you enjoy! Expansive Biomes adds 20+ new biomes to the game for you to seek out and explore. Inspired heavily by the Java Edition mod Biomes O' Plenty, you will find some similar biomes if you have played the mod. Expansive Biomes also includes some new mobs, and blocks!
