Reddit user YYoos added the Backrooms toMinecraftvia a data pack that generates infinite rooms randomly. The video released by the player shows the latest update to the project, the highlight of which is the addition of dead ends to make the data pack more maze-like. In addition to the dead ends, the update made other adjustments like adding more room variants, ambient sound, and improvements to Sculk’s room generation. This room draws players' attention because it uses a Sculk sensor,one ofMinecraft’s Sculk blocksthat can trigger a Warden appearance.
The Backrooms is an urban legend about rooms that are the backstage of reality, a sort of underworld that prepares and creates everything that happens in real life. The Backrooms has become a very popular creepypasta on the internet, gaining game versions, and aBackrooms movie in developmentby the producers of films such asMidsommar, andM3GAN. The data pack created by YYoos got positive feedback from otherMinecraftplayers, who also gave them additional ideas. One comment suggested adding very rare and special rooms to pique curiosity, and another player suggested lowering the ceiling to make it seem more claustrophobic. A third comment suggested adding a Warden variant that spawns in the Sculk room to chase the player.
As it’s an ongoing project, the data pack that adds the Backrooms toMinecraftdoesn’t yet have a release date. Even so, it’s an impressive project, as it uses a game famous for its random map generation to tackle the concept of infinite rooms of the Backrooms creepypasta. While the Backrooms data pack is not released, players can get to know theexisting horror elements inMinecraft, added with the idea of creating a slightly scarier experience.
