Abyssbound
by Dark__Max
Abyssbound is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 that adds a dark dimension, the Abyssbound Depths, with biomes, bosses and void-themed materials.
What it does
The mod adds a new dimension called the Abyssbound Depths, a lost realm of contrasting biomes inhabited by voidbound monsters. Its ecosystem is built around the lore of a fog-covered world, and the resources found there are layered, with the most valuable ones tied to the void.
Bosses are the core of the content. Gravorax is a multi-phase boss summoned after a seal is broken, and a sealed throne room holds a god-like creature named Blazezard. A giant crab lives inside Chintinhold Bastion, and a Fallen Vortex harasses players in packs. Players who want custom fights with new mechanics will find them here, and the mod is designed for an eerie atmosphere.
Abyssbound is a Client and server mod for Forge 1.20.1 only, released under a custom license that is not open source, so the license text should be read before any redistribution. It requires no other mods, and its latest Forge file is 1.3.2, published on 2026-01-14.

Mobs with camouflage
