[The next content update for Blue Depths will be part 2 of Roaring Rivers, the final part of Roaring Rivers. The update after Roaring Rivers will focus on a different theme (TBA)]

Blue Depths transforms Minecraft’s oceans AND rivers into a living, breathing ecosystem, providing new creatures that Minecraft normally wouldn’t add.

Blue Depths is meant for players who want a deeper ocean experience without sacrificing performance or vanilla balancing. Players can conquer these new creatures and even raise them as their own, experiencing their life cycles.

Along with that, the datapack also adds a new difficult boss to the game, The Nameless Depth, a being lost to time and forgotten by the ocean.

An in-game guidebook can be crafted using a book and salmon, and provides a much better explanation of all the features.
