Minecraft is a popular sandbox video game that encourages players to create a lot of new worlds to play in. Some players make new worlds within the same update to experiment with different biomes or potential structures near their spawn point, while others only make new worlds when a major update is released, so that they can quickly check out its features.

Listed below are five incredible seeds for The Wild Update 1.19 that will allow players to see many different structures, biomes, and other 1.19 additions, while still having enough in them to allow players to quickly jump into mid-to-late game progression.
