#What is the Better Minecraft Skyblock Modpack?
Better Minecraft Skyblock is a Forge modpack for Minecraft 1.20.1 built specifically around the skyblock experience. It keeps things close to Vanilla+ territory, adding just enough new systems and content to make starting from a single floating island feel fresh, without losing the familiar Minecraft feel skyblock fans expect.
Whether you're grinding out your first island or working toward late-game goals, the pack blends economy systems, new biomes, unique mobs, and quality-of-life tools into one cohesive skyblock experience.
