What's the difference between Java and Bedrock seeds?

Seeds generate different worlds in Java vs Bedrock due to different world generation algorithms. A seed number that works in Java won't create the same world in Bedrock. You'll need to test seeds in whichever edition you play on.

How do I enter a seed number in Minecraft?

Create a new world, then look for the Seed field in world settings. Paste or type the seed number, and hit Create World. That's it.

Can I use these seeds on Minecraft servers?

Yes. The server admin needs to input the seed number when creating the world. Once set, all players on that server see the same world from that seed.

Do these seeds work on all Minecraft versions?

These are tested for 1.20+. Older versions use different world generation, so results may vary. If you're on an older version, you can still use the seed but the world will look different.

Are these seeds free to use?

Completely free. Minecraft seeds are part of the game. Just type the number into a new world and you're good.
