One Minecraft cheat is perfect for laid-back players wanting an easy playthrough

Minecraft has different difficulty levels for survival mode. Each level increases the number of hostile mobs that can spawn and their health. Apart from a few features, most of the game mechanics remain the same in survival mode. Players' hunger bar will be depleted, and they will lose health in many other ways.

Since Minecraft is a sandbox, players can also enable cheats to alter these mechanics. Among these cheats, there is one feature that will massively make the game easier. This cheat is called keep inventory. Those who are not seeking a challenge in Minecraft and want a laid-back experience can turn this feature on through cheats.

What is the keep inventory feature?

The main issue with dying in the regular Minecraft survival mode is that players drop all their items upon dying. The challenge after respawning is to acquire these items from the last place of death in five minutes, or else they will despawn.

Keep inventory is a feature that allows players to retain every single item in their inventory even after they die. Hence, they will not have to worry too much about dying and losing their items and XP points. The only inconvenience is that they will respawn back at their respawn anchor.

Nonetheless, keeping inventory is a great cheat feature for casual gamers who just want to dive in without any major risks.

As mentioned previously, keeping inventory is a cheat feature. This means it cannot be activated in a regular survival world with advancements or achievements. Players will have to activate cheats and then activate the keep inventory feature. Here's the process in both Java and Bedrock Editions.

3. Press enter to activate the keep inventory feature in the world.
