The Create new world screen Template:In

The Create new world screen can be opened by pressing "Create new world" in the "Worlds" tab of the Minecraft:Play screen, and selecting a Minecraft:world template or the second "Create new world" button. The Create new world screen is also opened from the purchase screen of world templates in the Minecraft:Marketplace.

The menu shows a thumbnail with some buttons and a tab list on the left, and the world options for each selected tab on the right. The world thumbnail is either a default image, the image for the selected Minecraft:flat world preset or Minecraft:seed template, or the thumbnail of the world template.

Option Description
File:Ore UI - Back Button Icon (Bedrock).png Returns to the previously opened Minecraft:menu screen, usually the "Create from..." screen in the Play screen. Changes made to the world options will not be saved when leaving.
File:Ore UI - Create New World Screen - Create Button (Bedrock).png Saves the selected world options and opens the Minecraft:loading world screen to create and play the world.
File:Ore UI - Create New World Screen - Create On Realms Button (Bedrock).png Opens a menu with the options to create the world on an owned Minecraft:Realm, or add a new Realms subscription. Selecting a Realms server will show a selection screen with three available world slots where the world can be stored. The current world will be replaced with the new world.
Not available in the Minecraft:Editor but the interface has a Realms export tool.

When the world is being created from a Marketplace template, some options may be locked by the creator. The options can be unlocked by selecting the message at the top, but this may result in different gameplay than the creator intended for the template.

Some options and custom Minecraft:add-ons may permanently disable Minecraft:achievements for the world, which are shown with a message below the thumbnail. Enabling Minecraft:Hardcore mode, add-ons, or Minecraft:experiments shows a warning message as well.
