Horde Nights Mod (1.21.8, 1.20.1) – Minecraft Blood Moon Survival Challenge

The Horde Nights Mod (1.21.8, 1.20.1) transforms Minecraft’s peaceful sky into a crimson omen of doom with the addition of the Blood Moon, a recurring survival event that pushes players to their limits. Inspired by wave-based survival mechanics from other games, this mod introduces a periodic Horde Night where hostile mobs become stronger, spawn more frequently, and attack with brutal intensity.

These nights occur on a fixed schedule based on the difficulty level, giving players just enough time to prepare before chaos descends. Whether you enjoy hardcore survival, PvE defense, or team-based strategy, the Horde Nights Mod injects a thrilling dose of unpredictability and intensity into your world.

Features:

• Timed Horde Events:
  • Easy Mode: Horde Night every 31 in-game days
  • Normal Mode: Every 26 days
  • Hard Mode: Every 21 days
• Buffed Mobs: During Horde Nights, enemies receive significant stat boosts stronger health, damage, and aggression levels.
• Increased Spawn Rates: Far more hostile mobs appear during the Blood Moon, often swarming the player from all directions.
• Strategic Preparation: Encourages players to build fortified bases, traps, and defenses in anticipation of the Blood Moon cycle.
• Configurable Mechanics: Many aspects of the mod can be tweaked in the config, such as day interval, spawn rates, or mob behavior.

Whether you’re solo or on a multiplayer server, Horde Nights make every cycle feel meaningful and every night potentially your last.
