Ready your enchanted rods! Strap on your diamond helms! And get ready to do Battle - a mini game originally developed for the long-discontinued console editions, now ported to Bedrock
You can explore the lobby while you're waiting for the game to start! It contains many easter eggs
In the lobby, you can vote for a map to play. Interact with the map in your hotbar, and a map voting menu will open. The base download includes three maps: Cavern, Crucible, and Cove.
You can download and use different map packs on the downloads page. Map pack addons are divided into which texture pack used, and only one is usable at a time. All downloadable map packs apart from "Vanilla" will require textures to be purchased from the Marketplace to use.
Once you've selected the map, use the red dye textured ready item to start the game.
Gameplay
Once the game has started, you will spawn inside the map. Your goal? Become the last man standing. You will find chests throughout the map that offer a vast variety of loot to help you dominate.
As of 1.4.0, you can now also click the barriers in your inventory while in a chest menu to quickly Take Everything. This sadly does not work for players on touchscreen
The "Custom" game type
You can open Battle's settings menu, by selecting the "Custom" game type setting inside of the "Battle" behaviour pack. It offers many options that allow you to customise the selected item set, round length, lives, round count, and much more
Hunger is customisable as well, but must be changed through the behaviour packs menu. Disable the currently selected Hunger behaviour pack and enable another one in the Available submenu.
Nostalgia mods
Go back to the older 2016 mini game lobby - pre-Glide era, as well as Battle's original chest loot, hunger, and UI settings. Warning: May result in extreme nostalgia
CurseForge users: These mods are under "Alpha" releases. (Ensure the "Show Alpha Files" slider is enabled on the Downloads page.)
The TU36 Parity mod will adjust the item set (only when item set is "Standard") - notably adding back the Diamond Chestplate into chests, old hunger settings, and UI changes to closely replicate TU36
The 2016 Mini Game Lobby mod will take you right back to the original mini game lobby, originally used for Battle up until when Glide was added. (You will need to reload the world after first joining with the pack enabled)
Ensure these mods are set to a higher priority than any other pack in the Behaviour Packs and Resource Packs menu.
Console Aspects support
This port also includes support for Console Aspects - put Console Aspects below the main pack in resource pack priority, as shown below
