Since its full release in 2011, Minecraft has had a ton of external customization capabilities. The community has been extremely active in developing mods, texture packs, resource packs, shaders, and more for the game’s many versions.

Minecraft Java uses mods to change and add new items, mobs, blocks, biomes, and even dimensions to the game. A similar role is played by the use of add-ons in Minecraft Bedrock.

Add-ons, while not exactly the same as mods, work in a similar manner. Players can add a ton of customized content to the game and can change the textures, sounds, and even the behavior of in-game mobs and other entities like blocks and items.

Add-ons are available for every version of Bedrock Edition and can be downloaded from the internet or made by the player. This article will state five of the best addons for Minecraft’s Survival mode

Chests in this addon work a lot like pets in the game. Players will have to tame the chest first, after which it will follow their orders. Chests can jump, turn and stop at the command of the player.
