    • Generates automatically on Infinite worlds; can be toggled during creation of finite worlds.

    • Old (256x256, pre-0.9.0 terrain generation)
    • Superflat (Flat in-game on create world screen)
      • All superflat worlds will be infinite and by default will generate with the Classic Superflat and can only be changed by editing the options.txt file.^[3]
    • Infinite
      • Displays a warning when selected
      • Reliable playing size is approximately 40,000x40,000 (+20,000 to -20,000)
      • After +-20,000, the world renders incorrectly and gradually starts to become unplayable.^[4] The "jitteriness" gradually increases when the distance from the center is increased, as well as frequency of crashes
      • Eventually, the world becomes unplayable, and natural phenomena such as the "Stripe Lands" and Far Lands occur.
        • The outer limits of the world appear to be different for some players - a grid-like formation^[5], black visual stripes (the "Stripe Lands") ^[6] and even the Far Lands (at the same location as in PC) have been observed.^[7]

• World Generation:
  • Port of Minecraft PC world generation as of PC version 1.8, allowing for new generated structures and biomes
    • This may only apply to non-legacy new worlds. Older worlds can still become infinite as of 0.9.1, but may have the prior terrain generation. However, due to debate, the new generator will possibly be able to be used in expanded old worlds, displaying a warning when selected.^{[citation needed]}
