The Volatile Addon | Made For Minecraft Backrooms Found Footage

by DarkFoxStudios

The Volatile Addon adds further levels, mechanics and horrors to the Backrooms found footage setting from Space Potato, written for players who want more of that world.

FabricClient or server, optionalMIT LicenseOpen source1.20.1

What it does

The addon extends the Backrooms Found Footage content with new levels and mechanics, and the author describes the project as an expanding one rather than a finished release. It requires Geckolib and Minecraft Backrooms Found Footage, and Mod Menu and Simple Voice Chat can be added as optional extras. Fabric is the only loader with files, released for 1.20.1 as BETA5 on 2026-03-11 on the beta channel.

Files are open source under the MIT License. Either side can run it and neither needs it, so a client, a server or both will work. The author notes that the addon is still under development and may contain bugs and errors.

Key features

  1. New levels

    Additional levels extend the Found Footage setting into deeper areas of the Backrooms.

  2. New mechanics

    New gameplay mechanics are added on top of the base Found Footage content.

  3. Ongoing expansion

    The author describes the addon as one that keeps growing, with more content planned over time.
