Mythfall

The world isn't empty. It's waiting for you.

Mythfall is a huge dark fantasy RPG and survival modpack built around exploration, progression, magic, monsters and the feeling that you never quite know what's waiting over the next hill.

The idea behind Mythfall was pretty simple: I wanted a world that felt dangerous again.

I love modpacks that make you actually prepare before leaving home, where finding a strange structure in the distance makes you want to investigate it even though you know there's a good chance something horrible lives inside. Mythfall takes that idea and combines it with a massive fantasy world full of dungeons, creatures, bosses, magic, equipment, villages and places to discover.

It isn't designed to make Minecraft unfair just for the sake of being difficult. Instead, the world is meant to start dangerous and gradually become something you learn how to survive.

⚔️ Fight, Survive and Get Stronger

You aren't going to be the strongest thing in the world when you first spawn.

Mythfall completely expands Minecraft's combat and progression with new weapons, armour, accessories, spells, enchantments, skills and powerful equipment to discover.

There are plenty of ways to build your character, whether you want to charge into a dungeon with a massive weapon, fight from a distance, rely on magic or combine everything into your own playstyle.

As you become stronger, the world has plenty of stronger things waiting for you too.

🐉 A World Full of Monsters

Vanilla mobs are only a small part of what you'll encounter.

The world is populated by wildlife, fantasy creatures, hostile monsters, dragons, undead, strange cave inhabitants and things that are probably better left alone.

Some creatures are common. Others are much harder to find.

And some are bosses.

The goal was to make travelling feel unpredictable. A forest, cave, mountain or ruined building shouldn't always contain the same handful of mobs you've already fought a thousand times.

🏰 Explore Everything

Exploration is one of the biggest parts of Mythfall.

The Overworld has been heavily expanded with new terrain, biomes, caves, structures, villages, ruins, towers, castles and enormous dungeons.

There are things hidden underground, things sitting in plain sight and plenty of places where going through the front door might be a terrible idea.

Exploration also extends beyond the Overworld, with multiple dimensions offering their own environments, creatures, structures, resources and progression.

If you enjoy picking a direction and disappearing for several hours, that's exactly what Mythfall is built for.

🔮 Learn Magic

Magic isn't limited to one system.

Mythfall includes several different forms of magic, allowing you to experiment with spells, rituals, magical equipment and completely different approaches to combat and progression.

You can become incredibly powerful, but you're going to have to earn it.

Magic also exists throughout the world rather than feeling like something completely separate from the rest of the pack. Magical creatures, items, enemies and locations are mixed throughout your adventures.

🏡 Build Somewhere Worth Coming Home To

Surviving is important, but so is having somewhere nice to return to afterwards.

Mythfall includes a huge collection of building blocks, furniture, decoration, storage and quality-of-life features so your base can become more than a collection of chests surrounding a crafting table.

Build a tiny cottage, a medieval village, a wizard tower, a giant castle or something completely ridiculous.

You'll probably need the storage space anyway.

🍖 More Than Combat

There is plenty to do when you aren't fighting for your life.

Cooking and farming have been massively expanded with new crops, meals, drinks and food systems. Villages have more life, NPCs have more purpose and there are additional companions, mounts and animals throughout the world.

Create and its addons also introduce machinery and automation for players who want to build more complicated systems.

👥 Better With Friends

Mythfall is designed with multiplayer in mind.

Explore together, tackle huge dungeons, build settlements, fight bosses, revive each other when everything goes horribly wrong and argue about who gets the shiny thing you just found.

The pack includes multiplayer-focused features such as proximity voice chat, player revival and emotes to make playing together feel more interactive.

You can absolutely play Mythfall alone, but bringing friends along makes the chaos considerably more entertaining.

🌙 Atmosphere Matters

A fantasy world shouldn't just play differently. It should feel different.

Mythfall uses environmental audio, seasons, weather effects, improved footsteps, darkness, visual effects and other atmospheric changes to make the world feel much more alive.

There are also horror elements scattered throughout the pack.

Sometimes you'll know you're in danger.

Sometimes you'll hear it first.

💀 What Should I Expect?

Mythfall is a large modpack.

There are hundreds of mods and dependencies working together to create the final experience, so this isn't intended to be a lightweight vanilla+ pack.

A decent PC and a reasonable amount of allocated RAM are recommended.

The pack has also been built and tested around Minecraft 1.20.1 Forge, with multiplayer and dedicated-server play being an important part of development.

Performance optimisation has been taken seriously throughout development, including world-generation testing, server profiling and adjustments to reduce unnecessary entity and simulation load without stripping away the creatures and systems that make the world interesting.

🖤 Welcome to Mythfall

There isn't one correct way to play.

Become a mage. Hunt dragons. Raid dungeons. Build a kingdom. Collect everything. Become hopelessly obsessed with decorating your house while your friends are fighting a boss without you.

Mythfall is ultimately about giving you a huge fantasy world and letting you decide what kind of adventure you want to have in it.

Just don't assume that because something looks cute, it's friendly.

Good luck. You'll probably need it.
