Best Bedrock Seeds for 26.3, Checked With Bedrock Placement

Why Bedrock needs its own list

Since 1.18 a seed gives you the same terrain and biomes on Java and Bedrock. Same mountains, same rivers, same cherry grove behind spawn. Then you walk to where the village should be and it's just grass. Bedrock rolls structure positions with a different random generator, so a Java seed list is useless the moment you care about anything built.

We fed 3,000 random seeds to the engine with the edition set to Bedrock and version 26.3, listed every structure within 1,000 blocks of spawn, and checked the Nether around the portal position too. 190 of those seeds had a village within 200 blocks. 499 had trial chambers within 150, which is a lot more often than people expect. The seven below are the ones we'd actually start a world on.

2543571395: trial chambers and a village before you've punched a tree

Taiga spawn at 0, 0. Trial chambers start 36 blocks away at 16, 32 and a taiga village sits on top of them at 40, 24, 47 blocks out. You can trade, grab beds and be inside a copper dungeon within the first day. Three ruined portals are within 340 blocks (56, 312 is the closest), and an abandoned camp in the taiga at 352, 224 (417 blocks) if you want an early secret chest.

Buried treasure maps aren't needed either: the engine has a chest at 8, −312 on the beach north of spawn, though buried treasure is only an approximate marker on Bedrock, so dig a little around it. The Nether's fortress is 294 blocks from the portal position at −200, 216.

4361958339: you spawn on top of a trial chamber

This one made us laugh. Savanna spawn at 0, 0, and the engine puts trial chambers at 0, 0. Distance zero. Dig down anywhere near where you wake up and you'll hit tuff and copper sooner or later. There's an abandoned camp 129 blocks south at 16, 128 for its secret chest, and the nearest village is a plains one at 136, 216.

The downside is the Nether: the closest fortress is 440 blocks from the portal position at 200, 392. Fine for a chill world, bad for a speedrun.

5316182157: desert, jungle and a fortress, all close

The variety pick. Windswept savanna spawn at 0, 0. Trial chambers 97 blocks east at 96, 16. A jungle temple at 120, 232 (261 blocks) with trail ruins in the same jungle at 192, 64. Then west, a desert temple at −280, 200 sits right next to a desert village at −280, 216. Two temples, a village, ruins and trial chambers inside 360 blocks.

Three beach buried treasures show up within 200 blocks (8, 88 is the closest), and the Nether is decent: a fortress at 72, 184, 198 blocks from the portal position. If you want TNT from the desert temple and a jungle temple's dispensers for arrows on day one, this is the seed.

6955844912: a snowy spawn with everything

Spawn is out at −480, 224 in snowy plains, and the structure count is silly. An abandoned camp 36 blocks away at −448, 208. An igloo at −376, 216 (104 blocks). A snowy village at −344, 216 (136). Trial chambers at −544, 112 (129). A pillager outpost at −712, 280, trail ruins at −720, 80 and a ruined portal at −632, 392, all within 280.

The igloo matters more than it looks: if it has a basement, that's a zombie villager and a weakness potion ready for a cheap curing discount, with the village right next door. Nether fortress at 56, 168, 182 blocks from the portal position. Cold, though. Bring leather boots before you wander onto powder snow.

8081084602: desert village at spawn

Desert spawn at 224, 96 with a desert village 25 blocks away at 232, 120. Trial chambers at 288, 96 (64 blocks) and a ruined portal at 296, 136 (82). It's the tightest village plus trial chambers combo we found on Bedrock. A desert temple is further off at 72, −264.

No trees, obviously. You'll be walking to the warm ocean edge or a river for wood, and the Nether isn't great (fortress 412 blocks from the portal position). But beds, food and a dungeon inside 100 blocks covers the first night.

Two more worth a look

7506990728. Jungle spawn at −496, −160 with a jungle temple 69 blocks away at −440, −200. Trail ruins at −688, −192, a desert temple at −728, −296 and a desert village beside it at −824, −296. A good pick if you want the wild armor trim early.

3014024971. Snowy beach spawn at −480, 224 (yes, same spot as 6955844912, different world). Trial chambers 66 blocks out at −544, 240, an igloo at −424, 280 (79) and a snowy village at −328, 392. A shipwreck sits 120 blocks away in the frozen ocean, and the engine shows a bastion 48 blocks from the portal position in the Nether, though bastions are an approximate marker on Bedrock.

Checking a seed yourself

1. Open the seed map, type the seed and flip the edition switch to Bedrock. Forget this and every coordinate is wrong.
2. Pick 26.3, or the version you're actually playing. Trial chambers need 1.21 and camps need 26.3.
3. Look at the badge next to each structure type in the Features panel. Exact means Bedrock placement is replayed exactly. Approximate (mansions, monuments, shipwrecks, buried treasure, ancient cities, bastions, strongholds) means search around the marker.
4. Use the Nearest list in the village finder or the trial chamber finder to get distances from spawn.

Coming from Java? The Java vs Bedrock placement guide explains why the lists can't be shared, and our Java seed list is the companion to this one. If a village right at spawn is all you care about, there's a whole village seed list too.
