How to Set the Spawn World in Minecraft

The /setworldspawn command in Minecraft allows the user to change the world location to their current Minecraft world. This causes all new players who join the world to start at this position, rather than the default spawn for the seed. The use of this command is detailed below.

Syntax

There are two syntax options depending on the version of Minecraft you are using. They are listed below.

• Java
  • Syntax: /setworldspawn

  • Example: /setworldspawn 100 70100-180
  • Result: Sets the world spawn to block position 100 70 100 and places the user facing north.
• bedrock
  • Syntaxe: / setworldspawn [spawnPoint: xyz]
  • Example: /setworldspawn 100 70100
  • Result: Sets world spawn to block position 100 70 100.
