In release-week recordings, players reach the Sift through the Deep Dark portal at the end of Returning the Note Blocks: the tracker reads Enter the portal beside the lit note-block row, and a cutscene follows on the far side. The August gameplay announcement identifies the Sift as the dimension beyond the rifts. Xbox Wire’s September 26 preview says players enter it in the opening stages of Dungeons II; shifting tides, hazardous blocks and new biomes including Meadows and Carapace change how the region plays. Mojang says the Sift will arrive in Minecraft in 2027. The Illager High Council’s forces come from the Sift, but exact routes and encounters remain unknown.
