Season 3 was a major [[Survival]] update released on July 5, 2024. This was the first season to introduce fully custom terrain generation to the [[Survival/Overworld|Overworld]] and a persistent spawn world, [[Survival/Spawn|Spawnia]]. Though initially planned to include it, this was the first season to lack the [[Survival/Unstable Rift|Unstable Rift]] since it was introduced in [[Survival/Season 2|Season 2]]. Instead, a vanilla-generated resource world was included.

Season 3 spanned Minecraft versions 1.20.4 through 1.21.5.
