Descend into the Abyss. Discover ancient relics. Survive the Curse. Make your own story.
Made in Abyss is a survival-focused Minecraft mod inspired by the world of the Made in Abyss anime and manga. Explore a massive vertical dimension, descend through seven distinct layers, collect mysterious relics, encounter dangerous wildlife, and test how far you can go into the depths of the Abyss.
Your journey begins at the edge of the Abyss with a Red Whistle. From there, every expedition is a choice between pushing deeper for greater rewards and making it back alive.
Explore a custom-generated vertical dimension inspired by the depths of the Abyss. Each layer has its own terrain characteristics, materials, environmental hazards, and challenges.
Layer 1 — The Edge of the Abyss
Layer 2 — The Forest of Temptation
Layer 3 — The Great Fault
Layer 4 — The Goblets of Giants
Layer 5 — The Sea of Corpses
Layer 6 — The Capital of the Unreturned
Layer 7 — The Final Maelstrom
Descend through enormous vertical spaces and layered terrain, discover expedition sites, and search for relic caches hidden throughout the Abyss. Resource distribution changes with depth, making deeper expeditions increasingly valuable.
Going down is only half the journey. Ascending from the depths exposes you to the Curse of the Abyss.
The Curse builds as you climb, triggering increasingly dangerous effects depending on your depth. Venturing beyond the limits of your Whistle rank makes the situation even more dangerous.
Prepare your route, manage your resources, and use the right relics if you hope to return safely.
The deepest layers demand more than good equipment. Reaching them requires preparation, progression, and a willingness to risk everything.
Begin your journey as a Red Whistle and work your way toward the highest ranks.
Collect Whistle Fragments, complete Guild contracts, earn emeralds, and prove yourself through successful expeditions. Return to Orth and work with the Guildmaster to forge your next Whistle.
Progress through the ranks:
Red Whistle
Blue Whistle
Moon Whistle
Black Whistle
White Whistle
Your Whistle rank determines how deep you are authorized to venture. Higher ranks unlock access to more dangerous layers, where rare relics and valuable resources await.
Discover a collection of mysterious artifacts inspired by the series. Relics are practical expedition tools, not merely collectibles: each can provide a unique advantage in exploration, survival, combat, or navigation.
Among the relics you can find and use are:
Star Compass — helps you navigate the depths.
Blaze Reap — unleashes a powerful directed blast.
Star Thread — anchors to surfaces and pulls you back to your chosen point.
Far Caress — launches a projectile to help you reach distant surfaces or targets.
Sparagmos — unleashes a destructive blade of light.
Ghost Seek — reveals nearby creatures.
Tomorrow Signal — provides weather information and warns you about the approaching Curse.
Curse-Warding Box — offers a second chance at a terrible cost.
Gentle Knock — releases a controlled mechanical impulse.
Fog Weave, Sun Sphere, Unheard Bell, Third Works, Gangway, and many other relics.
Relics have individual effects, uses, and durability considerations. Some help you find resources or avoid danger, while others are designed for combat or movement.
Use Relic Fragments to repair worn artifacts and restore your collection. The deeper you explore, the more important it becomes to choose the right relics for your expedition.
The Abyss is home to its own dangerous ecosystem. Encounter creatures such as Hammerbeaks, Silkfangs, Neritantans, Madokajacks, Demonfish, Orb Piercers, Footing-slicers, Turbinid-Dragons, Shroombears, and more.
Creatures appear according to layer- and habitat-specific spawning rules. Some are relatively harmless, while others can turn an expedition into a desperate fight for survival.
Learn which creatures inhabit each region, watch your surroundings, and never assume that a path is safe simply because it was safe last time.
Orth serves as your starting point and base for future expeditions.
Return to the city to prepare for another descent, obtain supplies, and make use of the Guild's services.
Guildmaster: Accept contracts, track your progress, and work toward higher Whistle ranks.
Expedition Supplies Trader: Obtain supplies to prepare for your next journey.
Relic Appraiser: Interact with the relic economy and your recovered finds.
Expedition Medic: Recover health and essential resources after a dangerous trip.
Expedition Cook: Access additional city services.
Abyss Blacksmith: Repair damaged equipment.
Abyss Scout: Check your exploration records and current progress.
Guild contracts include reaching deeper layers and recovering relic fragments. Complete your objectives and return to Orth to receive rewards.
Successful returns also contribute to your expedition record and can earn additional rewards.
The mod combines vertical exploration with survival mechanics and long-term progression.
Track your depth, Whistle rank, and layer access through the dedicated HUD.
Discover expedition camps and relic caches in the depths.
Search for valuable ores whose distribution changes between layers.
Manage your equipment and prepare before entering dangerous regions.
Complete advancements as you descend, recover relics, and return from expeditions.
Build a persistent record of your deepest dives and completed contracts.
Every descent brings new discoveries, but every ascent comes with its own risks.
The Abyss is waiting. Begin at the rim, earn your rank, gather your relics, and descend into the unknown.
How deep will you go before you turn back?
