In Survival mode, players need to collect resources, craft tools, build shelter, find food, and battle hostile creatures. The game features a complete day-night cycle and weather system, with hostile mobs appearing at night, adding challenge to the gameplay. As players progress, they can explore underground caves, abandoned mineshafts, villages, fortresses, and the End, among other special areas.
