Upon clicking the "Create new world" button, the player is taken to a screen with the option to create worlds from a Marketplace or custom Minecraft:world template. The green "Create new world" button opens the Minecraft:Create new world screen where a world can be created from scratch.

There are three tabs for templates.

  • Marketplace Pass shows some world templates, add-ons, and texture packs included in the Minecraft:Marketplace Pass. A button shows the thumbnail, name, author, and rates. The button at the bottom of the list opens the Minecraft:Marketplace with all Marketplace Pass content.
  • Featured creators shows some world templates outside Marketplace Pass. More templates can be found with the button below.
  • Owned by me shows all world templates the player has access to, including those in the Marketplace Pass when the player is subscribed. The list can be filtered on name with a searchbar, and there are filter options for Show all, Downloaded, Imported, and Purchased from the Marketplace. The list can be sorted on newest or oldest, or alphabetical. On Windows,<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /> custom .mctemplate world template files can be imported from the device folders.

This generally includes certain packs, world settings, world name and thumbnail, and world data. Some world settings may be locked by the creator, which can be unlocked using a button above.

Downloaded Marketplace templates show a button that opens the pack's rate screen in the Marketplace. Imported templates have a tag.
