The '''badlands plateau''' or '''mesa plateau''' was a variant of the [[Minecraft:badlands]] that no longer generates since [[Minecraft:Caves & Cliffs: Part II]], and was removed {{in|je}}.<br />
<br />
== Description ==<br />
The badlands plateau featured large flat-topped hills composed of stratified colors of [[Minecraft:terracotta]] ranging in warm colors. Plateaus had steep edges that rose to within 20-30 blocks above sea level, where they quickly flatten. The top of these plateaus typically had scattered [[Minecraft:dead bush]]es. Occasional [[Minecraft:pond]]s appeared on plateau tops. The sides of the plateau occasionally revealed [[Minecraft:cave]]s and [[Minecraft:mineshaft]]s. [[Minecraft:River]]s that passed through badlands plateau biomes cut steep grooves, giving off the appearance of narrow canyons. These posed a fall damage hazard if the player was not careful. [[Minecraft:Canyon]]s would also generate here.<br />
<br />
With [[Minecraft:Vibrant Visuals]], badlands plateaus have unique atmospherics, the sky is tinted turquoise-green at daytime and much brighter during the night, while the daytime horizon is tinted brown. Moonlight is more vibrant blue, and the warm color grading tints the environment more yellow, although color saturation is slightly lower.<br />
