download Skip to Downloads

The Resource Backpack’s Mod (1.21.8, 1.21.1) introduces a balanced and configurable way to expand inventory space in Minecraft using custom backpacks. Unlike traditional mods that allow open-anywhere access, this mod embraces a more grounded approach requiring players to place backpacks before interacting with them, similar to how Shulker Boxes function. It’s ideal for modpack creators or survival players who want extra storage without making the game feel overpowered.

With support for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, and Quilt, the mod offers full cross-platform flexibility and is designed to fit neatly into both casual and hardcore gameplay environments.
