How to Find a Rift

Rifts appear throughout the interconnected world of Minecraft Dungeons II. Mojang has not published exact rift locations, spawn conditions, or whether rifts are tied to specific missions.

See the dedicated guide: How to Find Rifts to The Sift.

Step-by-Step Entry

Official sources confirm one step: entering a rift can transport you to The Sift. A verified step-by-step walkthrough cannot be published until live availability is confirmed and the process has been tested.

What Happens After Entering

Players who use a rift are transported to The Sift, where two areas have been publicly named so far: Meadow and Carapace. The Sift includes new mobs, blocks, environments and mechanics, but the details of what happens on arrival have not been officially documented.

Can You Enter The Sift in Java?

No. The Sift is not available in Minecraft Java Edition. Mojang has announced it for 2027, and has not explained how players will access it there. Any claim about a Java Edition portal or entry method is currently unconfirmed. See The Sift in Java Edition.

Can You Enter The Sift in Bedrock?
