The Sift, Minecraft's fourth dimension

The first new dimension in over 14 years sits beside the Overworld, the Nether and the End. You can walk into it today in Minecraft Dungeons II; vanilla Java and Bedrock get it next year. The pink grass above is the vanilla version, from the first look Mojang gave it.

What the Sift is

A bright, soul-rich world of red sculk, teal grass, blue trees and giant fossils, reached through tears in the Overworld. In Dungeons II the story sends you after illagers who came out of the rifts (the first Sift objective is called The Illagers from the Rift), and the Sift's own sifters and sculkers are just as hostile.

The rules change once you are inside. Tides change how hard the dimension is while you are in it, and pools of ichor, a thick rainbow liquid, burn your health and your souls at the same time. Native mobs wade through it untouched.

“This will be the first new dimension in over 14 years”

Minecraft LIVE recap, minecraft.net

For vanilla Minecraft, Mojang has named one mob, the blub, and shown a few seconds of pink sculk grass. How you will get there is still unannounced.
