Voyage
by Lykrast
Voyage adds 14 new biomes to the Overworld and nothing else, so a world gains terrain variety without any new blocks, items or plants.
What it does
The biomes include several deserts, lagoons and polar variants, along with forest and plains terrain. Each one is generated during world creation or exploration like a vanilla biome, and the mod does not change crafting recipes or add structures of its own. Images of the biomes appear in the gallery section of the author's listing.
Voyage is published for Forge only, for the game versions 1.14.4, 1.15.2, 1.16.4 and 1.16.5. The latest file, 1.0.4 for 1.16.5, was released on 2021-11-18 on the beta channel. The mod is released under the MIT License, and its source code and issue tracker are public. Clients need the mod to join a server that runs it, so it is a client and server mod. The author notes compatibility with Traverse, Legacy Continued Biomes and O' Plenty, while acknowledging some overlap in biomes with those mods. A Fabric version is planned, according to the author.

Use cases
Adding terrain to an existing world
Biomes generate in newly explored chunks, so players can reach them while travelling.
Pairing with other biome mods
Because the author notes some overlap with Traverse and other biome mods, server owners may want to check which biome set wins before combining them.
Who it’s for: Players who want more Overworld terrain without extra items, and server owners who want to add biomes while keeping the content unchanged. Clients need the mod installed for the biomes to load.
How it compares
Terrestria Reforged is a Forge mod for 1.16.5 that is client and server, released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and it is open source. Traverse: Legacy is a Forge mod for 1.11.2 – 1.12.2 that is client and server, released under the MIT License. Voyage's 14 biomes cover 1.14.4 – 1.16.5 on Forge, so the two differ in version range.
