Last updated
Ever wondered how to clear out some space in your Minecraft universe by deleting a world you no longer need? Perhaps you’ve embarked on too many adventures and now your world select screen is just too crowded. Let’s dive into how you can tidy up by removing unwanted worlds.
Are you looking to figure out how to delete a Minecraft world that you’re done exploring or maybe didn’t turn out the way you wanted? You’re in the right place!
Steps to Delete a World in Minecraft
Deleting a world in Minecraft is pretty straightforward. First, ensure you’ve closed any active game sessions. Then, from the game’s main menu, select “Singleplayer” (or “Worlds” on Bedrock editions) to see a list of your worlds.
Next, find the world you want to delete. Hover over it, and you’ll see an option to “Delete” (for PC/Mac) or a trash bin icon (for mobile and console versions). Click or tap on that, and confirm your choice. Voila! The world disappears, making room for new adventures. Keep in mind, this action is permanent, so be sure you’re ready to say goodbye to that world.
