Merged Biomes
by ignDante
Merged Biomes blends two existing biomes into one terrain, so a single landscape can carry the greenery of a jungle and the open plains around it.
What it does
The mod generates biomes that combine the terrain features and looks of two familiar biomes in one continuous area. Exploration is the main draw, since the merged areas give travelers landscapes that the vanilla biome set does not produce.
Merged Biomes works on Forge for Minecraft 1.20.1 only, and it is not open source: the author holds All rights reserved. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The first release, 1.0.0 for 1.20.1, was published on 2025-01-24, the same day the mod was first listed and last updated.
Key features
Blended biome terrain
Two existing biomes are fused into one area, with the terrain features and visual style of each carried into the merged landscape.
Jungle Plains and Dark Plains
Jungle Plains pairs jungle greenery with open plains, while Dark Plains gives the plains a gloomier, more unsettling look.
Birch and taiga variants
Birch Savanna, Taiga Plains and Birch Swamp add merged biomes that mix birch, taiga and savanna features.
Cherry Plains
Cherry Plains is one of the merged biomes, joining cherry-blossom style terrain with plains.

Use cases
Exploring new terrain
Players who travel far in a survival world find biome boundaries that vanilla generation does not create, which gives new routes and places to visit.
Who it’s for: Players looking for varied landscapes in a Forge world on Minecraft 1.20.1, and server owners who want new terrain for an existing world.
How it compares
Z's Wildscape is also a Forge mod for 1.20.1 with client and server environment and All rights reserved, but it covers a different set of terrain changes. Create: Structures Overhaul - BOP integration is Forge-only for 1.20.1 and is published under the MIT License, so players join without installing it. Merged Biomes needs both sides, unlike that addon.
