2026: NESB Themes (Updated Draft)

We’re trying something new in 2026! Each month will have a theme to help inspire Realm members builds. Below is our updated draft theme list.

Themes

  • January: The Future — Kick off the new year with something modern… and futuristic maybe. Maybe a good time to add a build or a detail to the Modern Age district of the Realm.
  • February: City Life — While adding to the Modern Age district comes to mind first, we have villages around the Realm that are already on their way to becoming small cities. Cave Society might be a good place to set-up a shop or a home.
  • March: Wild Wild West — On the bucket list forever is creating a Western town on the edge of a desert and a mesa. Maybe this is the nudge needed to make that happen.
  • April: European Village — There are so may iconic European villages… the inspiration will be endless here.
  • May: Castles — Fairytale, classic, fictional… so many choices. Maybe something large… or maybe the smallest castle possible.
  • June: High Seas — From Neptune to Jack Sparrow… from the surface to deep below… what can we build in the seas? Maybe a perfect home for the new Nautilus and Zombie Nautilus?
  • July: Nethermore (Gothic) — A trip to the opera? Something with gothic vibes and a nod to our favorite tee.
  • August: Farm Life — A relaxing month on the farm… unless it is a mob farm. Pick your vibe and roll with it.
  • September: Vacation — Get away from it all and build your perfect vacation… beach house? Cabin in the woods?
  • October: Scary and Spooky — This is the month to visit the darker side of Minecraft. Maybe a spooky home in the Pale Garden?
  • November: Cozy Craft — Fall has arrive, so get cozy. Build the perfect place to cuddle up and read a good book.
  • December: Holidays — Pick a holiday and create a celebration! It can be big or small.
