Mods are a great resource for players feeling a bit bored of vanilla Minecraft, and want to spice up their next survival world.

Mods are files that players can upload into Minecraft, which then add new features to the game. Some mods can be simple, only adding a new mob or too, while others can be very detailed and intricate, adding entirely new structures, dimensions, and quests.

There are thousands of mods out there for players to choose from, so it can be daunting to find the perfect one.
