One of the most exciting upcoming features is the Caves and Cliffs update (Available in Minecraft PE 1.16.200.52). In this guide, we will show you how to activate Caves and Cliffs in Minecraft 1.17 using snapshots.

Step 1: Create a backup

Before you begin, it is important to create a backup of your world in case something goes wrong. You can do this by going to the world selection screen, selecting the world you want to back up, and clicking the “Edit” button. Then, click “Make Backup” and wait for the process to complete.

Step 2: Enable snapshots

To use Caves and Cliffs in Minecraft 1.16, you need to enable snapshots. Snapshots are test versions of Minecraft that allow players to test new features before they are released. To enable snapshots, follow these steps:

1. Open the Minecraft launcher.
2. Click the “Installations” tab.
3. Click “New” to create a new installation.
4. Select “Snapshot” as the version type.
5. Select the latest snapshot from the list (it should say “snapshot” next to the version number).
6. Click “Create” to create the installation.

Step 3: Create a new world

Now that you have enabled snapshots, you can create a new world with the Caves and Cliffs features. Follow these steps:

1. Click the “Play” button in the Minecraft launcher.
2. Click “Singleplayer.”
3. Click “Create New World.”
4. Give your world a name.
5. Select “More World Options.”
6. In the “World Type” dropdown menu, select “Caves and Cliffs.”
7. Click “Create New World.”

Step 4: Enjoy the new features

You have now created a new world with the Caves and Cliffs features. You can now explore the new terrain and enjoy the new features that have been added, such as new cave systems, new blocks, and new mobs.

Remember, these features are still in development and may be subject to change. It is recommended that you do not use your main world for testing snapshots, as there is a risk of corrupting your world.
