Ben 10: Unearthed
by globgor
With Ben 10: Unearthed, players start an alien-transformation adventure in which the Omnitrix is found in a crashed spaceship and aliens are gained by collecting DNA samples.
What it does
The datapack for Minecraft 1.21.4 adds the Ben 10 franchise to survival play, turning exploration into the main path of progress. The Omnitrix is obtained by discovering a rare crashed spaceship, where an approach pod contains the device to equip. Holding right click opens the Omnitrix interface, where a player selects which alien to transform into and closes it by looking down.
A player begins with one random alien. More aliens are gained by locating remnant alien DNA in natural structures, then scanning a sample by holding it in the main hand while the Omnitrix is open. DNA samples are found in nether fortresses, bastions, ruined portals, buried treasure, strongholds, woodland mansions, ancient cities, mineshafts, end cities, shipwrecks, pillager outposts, dungeons, jungle pyramids and ocean ruins. Installing it needs a Fabric loader with Fabric API, and the datapack and resource pack are both installed to reload.
Latest Fabric file 3 is published for 1.21.4 and was updated on 2025-02-15. The mod runs on the server and is required there, while the client may leave it out. Ben 10: Unearthed is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Exploration-based progression
Progress through aliens depends on finding DNA samples in world structures rather than on a fixed sequence of tasks.
Omnitrix device
A crashed spaceship holds the rare Omnitrix, which opens a selection screen for choosing an alien form.
Alien DNA samples
Samples scanned from the main hand add aliens, and each alien is tied to the structures where its DNA appears.
Full power
Once enough DNA has been collected, the Omnitrix reaches its full power and every alien becomes available.
