Last updated
Ever found yourself squinting at your Minecraft map, wishing it could show more without having to move? You’re not alone. Many explorers and builders seek ways to expand their maps for better navigation and planning. But, how can you actually make a map bigger in Minecraft?
Let’s dive into the simple steps to enlarge your Minecraft map, giving you a better view of your Minecraft world.
Expanding Your Minecraft Map
To make your map bigger in Minecraft, you need more paper. It’s like adding more pages to your map book! First, create or find your existing map that you want to expand. Remember, every map starts small, showing just a tiny area around you.
Next, grab some paper. In Minecraft, you make paper by turning sugarcane into paper at a crafting table. You’ll need 8 pieces of paper to expand your map. Surround your existing map with the 8 pieces of paper in the crafting menu, and voila! Your map will grow, showing a larger area than before.
