Early Alpha terrain generator
Pre-Caves & Cliffs terrain generator
The terrain generator was made infinite in mid-2014 with the addition of biomes from the then Java 1.7 generator. This world generator lasted until Caves and Cliffs Part 2, which was fully released in late 2021.

Legacy Console Edition
Template:Incomplete section Legacy Console Edition was historically updated roughly following Java Edition major releases, and as such, mirrored Java Edition changes for much of its update history.
Overworld
Halloween Update terrain generator
Xbox 360 edition was released with features roughly equivalent to Java Edition Beta 1.6, and therefore matched its terrain generation identically. Template:HistoryTable
Adventure Update terrain generator
Xbox 360 version TU5 released features identical to Java Edition Beta 1.8, and therefore, all seeds have changed. The addition of Jungle biomes in TU12 shuffled positions of all major land biomes, changing a decent portion of world seeds again on Xbox 360. All other console editions except for Nintento Switch edition were initially released with the latter world generation. Template:HistoryTable
The Update that Changed the World terrain generator
Nintendo Switch edition was the only Legacy Console Edition to be initially released during this world generation's stage. Template:HistoryTable

Indev world types
- Island: World spawns as a large island surrounded with water; smaller island(s) off the coast are common too. Border block is water as well. Sand generates.
- Floating: World generates in rings of floating islands high in the air. Border block is water. Sand is common. Caves often lead into the void.
- Flat: World is a perfectly flat plane with trees growing. Border block is grass. Sand does not generate.
- Original: Resembles Classic 0.30 terrain generation.
- Inland: Same as Original, but border block is grass instead of water.
