Minecraft Dungeons 2 biomes and regions
Launch-week info, last checked . We update this page as patches and new data land.
Short answer
Minecraft Dungeons 2 has five named Overworld biomes, the Deep Dark beneath them and a new dimension called the Sift, and the campaign walks through them in a fixed order. Each region below links to what lives there: mobs, bosses, quests and loot.

Which regions are listed without a full guide yet?
These places exist in the game but our sources say too little for a real page. They will get one when there is something to say.
Humbler Huskland
Reached through the Musical Gate from Singer's Meadow. The campaign has you tear down Illager banners here.
Not confirmed yet: No mob list, boss or loot table is published for this region yet. The Carapace Explorer achievement (enter a humbler husk) hints at giant husk structures, but the details are unconfirmed.
Lullaby Hills
The last Sift region. Three guarded Illager machines are hurting the land, and you wake the echo golems here.
Not confirmed yet: Launch data lists only echo golems as native mobs. Story details around The Final Souldown quest come from guides and are not on official pages.
Illager Stronghold
The Illager High Council's home turf, and the last stop before the ending.
Not confirmed yet: Layout, mobs and bosses are not documented in our sources. Which final boss is fought here is in dispute; see the Deep Dark page.
Ancient City
An underground city listed in the launch data. Nothing beyond its existence is documented.
Not confirmed yet: No mobs, quests or loot are documented, and its link to the Deep Dark is speculation.
Echo Den
A named Sift location tied to the Guardian of the Golems achievement, where Illagers camp near friendly echo golems.
Not confirmed yet: The launch data has nothing beyond its name, and no map position is given.
The Carapace
A desert-like Sift biome full of huge bone structures, named by the developers alongside the Meadows.
Not confirmed yet: Sculk mages and sculk slashers are listed here, but no quests, sub-areas or loot are published. Where it sits in the campaign order is not stated.
