The first officially announced way to experience The Sift. Minecraft's official page lists the game for Windows, Steam, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and Nintendo Switch 2, with a 29 September 2026 release date.
The Sift is confirmed for both editions in 2027. There is no official exact date, version number, or entry mechanism yet, so a portal or seed guide would be guesswork.
A mod can be a separate fan project, not Mojang's official implementation. This wiki has not verified a safe, current mod download or installation path.
Safety line: Do not install a file, enter credentials, or trust a “vanilla portal” claim just because a page uses The Sift name.
How do I enter The Sift in Dungeons II?
The official coverage shows The Sift as part of Dungeons II's new interconnected world. It describes rifts appearing throughout that world and transporting players to The Sift, but it does not provide a full step-by-step progression guide yet.
◆
Verified path: play Dungeons II and follow its rift-driven adventure. The details beyond that belong to the game, not a made-up pre-launch checklist.
When the game is available and the route can be verified in play, this page can grow into a real walkthrough with screenshots, version labels, and links to confirmed biomes and mobs.
What we will update
Evidence first, steps second.

Next verification pass
After launch, record the exact route, edition, and version in-game. Until then, this page stays explicit about what is not known.
