Custom maps and games are common in Minecraft. Lots of creative players have launched many maps and game modes for others to download and enjoy. The steps to add player-made maps are fairly simple in the PC version of Minecraft, and are a bit more complicated in Minecraft PE for Android and iOS. Regardless of which version you’re playing, you can add and play new maps in just a minute or two.
Steps
On PCs, Mac and Linux

Download the map file. There are countless player-created maps available on the many pages of the massive Minecraft fan community. You just need to search by keyword “minecraft maps” to find more maps than you can imagine. Most map listings come with reviews and comments, so you can browse and find the best map to try out.
- Maps are usually in ZIP or RAR format. ZIP files can be opened without installing additional software, but RAR files are different, you will need to install a new program. You can use the free trial of WinRAR ( rarlab.com ) on Windows, or you can use the open source 7-Zip program ( 7-zip.org ). Mac users can use The Unarchiver available and free in the Mac app store (Mac App Store). You can refer to the article Opening RAR file for steps to open this file.
- Remember to note down the Minecraft version of the map. You can change the version of Minecraft in the Launcher before starting the game to be able to play maps designed for earlier versions.

Open the extracted folder. Open the folder you just created by extracting the map file. Usually you will see the _MACOSX folder and the folder with the same name as the map file. Now leave this window open.
- If you open the folder with the name of the map, you will see many files and folders, including the level.dat file, the data folder, and many others. Please return to the previous directory after confirming that these files are there.

Download the map file. Make sure the map file is for Minecraft PE, not the desktop version. You also need to make sure that you are downloading the map that matches the version of Minecraft PE, as it is not as easy to change the version in play as it is on a personal computer.
- You can see the version of Minecraft playing in the main menu of Minecraft PE.
