World generation
- Options for classic (864×864), small (1024×1024), medium (3072×3072), and large (5120×5120) world sizes. Large, medium, and small are only available on the Minecraft:Xbox One Edition and Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition. On the Minecraft:Nintendo Switch Edition, there are only classic, small, and medium world sizes.
- Water moat occupies the outer 2 chunks to smoothly transition to the edge of the world.
- Overwrite world edges option when expanding a world from a smaller size to a larger size, resetting the outer 2 chunks in the smaller world, removes the water moat at the edge of the world.
- Classic world size generates more villages than large world sizes.
- Biome Scale
- Small, medium, and large option. The small option is the default due to limited world size, so one world can have more biomes.
- Biome generation is roughly based on Java Edition 64 bit generation seeds. Large biome size is equivalent to biome size 4 from Java Edition Minecraft:Old Customized worlds, Medium is rough approximation on biome size 3, and small biome size roughly approximates to biome size 2. This is due to biome scaling taking place before hill biomes, edge biomes, and beach biome are applied to the map, unlike Java Edition Old Customized worlds where the scaling occurs after.
- Mushroom biomes generate in different locations compared to Java Edition.
- Since the Exploration Update, temples and Minecraft:structures attempt to spawn more frequently, due to limited world sizes, especially with Minecraft:woodland mansions.
- There is a "Find Balanced Seed" option, selected by default, which makes the game randomly select seeds that have a better variety of biomes.
- Noise generation is loosely based on Java Edition Nether noise generation.
- Has limited size, at 288×288, and is slightly larger with a larger world size. On Large worlds, the Nether is up to 640×640.
- The Nether-Overworld portal ratio is larger depending on world size: 1:3 in Classic and Small; 1:6 in Medium; and 1:8, like other versions of Minecraft:Minecraft, in Large.
- Nether wart spawns randomly wherever Minecraft:soul sand is generated in the Nether.
- The edge of this dimension is made of bedrock.
- The Nether is hollow, with a flat ground, when using a Minecraft:superflat world.
- Up to one Minecraft:End gateway can generate on Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition, Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition, Minecraft:PlayStation Vita Edition, and Minecraft:Wii U Edition, whereas up to four End gateways can generate on Minecraft:Xbox One Edition, Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition, and Minecraft:Nintendo Switch Edition.
- The coordinates they generate are as follows, with the first set of coordinates being that of the first End gateway, and the remaining 3 gateways using the 3 remaining coordinates, but not in any particular order:
- x:65 y:75 z:0
- Leads to the southern island and is guaranteed to generate an Minecraft:End city.
- x:-65 y:75 z:0
- Leads to the eastern island.
- x:0 y:75 z:65
- Leads to the northern island.
- x:0 y:75 z:-65
- Leads to the western island.
- x:65 y:75 z:0
- The coordinates they generate are as follows, with the first set of coordinates being that of the first End gateway, and the remaining 3 gateways using the 3 remaining coordinates, but not in any particular order:
- Each End gateway portal leads to one outer island, which is as big as the main island. On the Minecraft:Xbox 360 Edition, Minecraft:PlayStation 3 Edition, Minecraft:PlayStation Vita Edition, and Minecraft:Wii U Edition, the only generated outer island always generates an End city with an Minecraft:End ship.
- The End gateways in the outer islands generate at a random position in a random corner and always 10 blocks above the ground just like in Java Edition.
- The size does not change with regard to the world's Minecraft:world size. Even on the classic world size, the islands are so far apart that they are all on different Minecraft:maps.
- The spawn End island generates at 0,0, up to 96 blocks form the origin. Outer islands generate 2048 blocks from the origin in cardinal directions.
- Each island is surrounded by invisible walls, making it impossible to go between them without the use of End gateways.
- Only a 192 by 192 block area (12 by 12 chunks generate, 6 chunks from the center) for each island.
- Only the spawn End island's noise generation loosely follows Minecraft:Java Edition End noise generation. The outer End islands always generate the End island; rather than other End biomes (small End islands).
- The Minecraft:obsidian platform is located at X=60, Y=49, Z=60; unlike that of Java or Bedrock.
- Minecraft:End spikes are generated differently:
- Generates 8 pillars instead of 10.
- Centers of the pillars have a horizontal Minecraft:euclidean distance of 40 blocks to the exit portal.
- Are sorted by size with an ascending order clockwise.
- Start generating at Y-Level 1 instead of 0.
- The smallest pillar generates until Y-Level 73. Each next pillar going clockwise is 3 blocks taller.
- The 2 tallest pillars have Minecraft:iron bars.
- The Minecraft:exit portal always generates at Y-Level 63.
- The exit portal always generates with a small island made out of Minecraft:End stone around it even with world seeds that otherwise do not generate a central island.
- Minecraft:Superflat Interface
- An interface for creating superflat worlds. While a similar interface exists on older versions of Minecraft:Java Edition, in Legacy Console Edition, it is much more versatile, allowing you to change what generates, how much it generates, and more.
- A maximum of 128 layers, including at least one layer of Minecraft:bedrock always at the bottom of the world that cannot be changed or removed.
- The Legacy Console Edition is the only edition of the game to have a block selection menu and biome selection menu for custom superflats, the layout of which are shown below:
- There are a total of 250 unique different blocks in the custom superflat block selection menu as of Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition 1.95. Not all blocks can be used for custom superflat, such as Minecraft:slabs or Minecraft:stairs.
- There are a total of 21 different biomes in the biome selection menu for custom superflats. Not all Minecraft:biomes can be used, such as the Minecraft:birch forest, which is notably missing from the custom superflat biome selection menu.
- The Legacy Console Edition is the only edition of the game to have a block selection menu and biome selection menu for custom superflats, the layout of which are shown below:

Crafting
The game has a Minecraft:crafting system with the following categories. The categories of blocks and items in the crafting menu differ significantly from the Creative menu, and various blocks and items are grouped differently. Minecraft:Stonecutters have a separate interface, although it functions very similar to the crafting menu.
The crafting system Template:In could be changed to use the system from the Java Edition by checking the "Classic Crafting" option under "User Interface" in the options menu.
By default, Legacy Console Edition used a simplified crafting system. It did not require the Minecraft:player to place items in the correct place in the crafting interface, but instead displayed the ingredients required to craft the selected item and allows the player to craft that item as long as the player has the required crafting ingredients.
The PlayStation Vita and Wii U editions did not have the ability to craft using touch input.

Notes
- Minecraft:Crafting entries with an asterisk (*) do not appear outside the crafting table.
- The armor tab does not show in the inventory crafting menu, only in the Minecraft:crafting table. All other crafting tabs show even in the Minecraft:inventorycrafting menu. Only three of the six banner tabs show in the inventory banner crafting menu, including the select banner tab.
- As with the Minecraft:Creative inventory, there is no search tab, unlike the Minecraft:recipe book on Java and Bedrock. Players must instead browse each individual tab to find the item in question, or toggle to show craftable items only.
- When using the Minecraft:loom for banner crafting, only the banner crafting interface with the banner specific navigation tabs are available. In the first tab, only "Select Banner" is available.
- Minecraft:Furnaces, Minecraft:blast furnaces, and Minecraft:smokers do not have a predefined menu selection of blocks, unlike the Minecraft:recipe book on other editions such as Java.
- Colored materials are ordered by color data values, unlike colored items in the Creative inventory. This applies to all tabs (crafting, banners, dyes, fireworks), in both the crafting table and loom. The order of dyes in the crafting dyes in the decorations tab is different.
Creative inventory
The Minecraft:Creative inventory in Legacy Console Edition was the same as Java Edition, albeit with slightly different tabs and its own set of items.
On Minecraft:PlayStation 4 Edition 1.95, there are a total of 1,043 unique items in the Creative inventory.
Layout
Differences
- There is no search tab, with all of the Creative inventory's items in a single tab, on Legacy Console. Players must instead browse each individual tab to find the item in question.
- Scrolling up and down in the Creative inventory and custom superflat scrolls one entire page at a time (five rows of items) on Legacy Console; instead of scrolling one row at a time like all other editions of the game.
- Both Luck effect and Decay effect potions and tipped arrows are available on Legacy Console.
- All Minecraft:Potion and Minecraft:Tipped Arrow types are arranged by base variants, followed by extended variants, and enhanced variants. They aren't arranged by regular, splash, and lingering potions like on Java or Bedrock.
- Colored blocks and items are arranged in a different order from Java and Bedrock. They don't use a rainbow order like all colored blocks and items on Java (almost all on Bedrock).
- Banners on Legacy Console are arranged differently from all other colored blocks and items within.
- Enchanted books are ordered partially like that of Java, and those added after the World of Color update, partially like that of Bedrock, with other minor differences to the order of enchanted books.
- Unlike later versions of Java or Bedrock Edition, spawn eggs are not sorted alphabetically, nor are they sorted with most passive mobs before most hostile ones. Instead; most hostile mob spawn eggs are listed before most passive mob spawn eggs.
- Minecraft:Slabs, Minecraft:stairs, and Minecraft:walls share the same order between Legacy Console and Bedrock Edition with the following exception: Stone brick and mossy stone brick stairs and slabs are found between mossy cobblestone and wooden variants on Legacy Console, rather than between wooden and sandstone variants like on Bedrock.
