Beyond The Edge
by luitopillo
Beyond The Edge is a Forge progression mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 that adds dimensions, bosses, mobs and ores, reached one after another as the player advances.
What it does
Each new dimension is harder than the one before it. The mod starts with a simple icy dimension and leads the player toward a perilous hellish plains region, so difficulty rises with progress. The author describes it as a post-game mod that also adds more explorable dimensions after the Ender Dragon is defeated, though some of that content is still being built.
Books scattered through the dimensions explain the lore and follow the path of an ancient explorer, so the story unfolds gradually as the player delves deeper. Snow biomes with icebergs and small ruined ice portal structures are part of the early route. Flint and steel is needed to open access to the dimensions, and it can be found in chests within the structures.
The mod is still in development. The author lists it as about 95% complete as a playable build, about 80% complete in actual work, and about 10% complete for future updates, with only the base dimension ores finished. Beyond The Edge requires Curios API, Geckolib and Scaling Health. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files are published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.20.1, and the latest file is 9.2.0 from 2026-10-13.
