The Aerbunnies have returned!! Don't Panic!! To celebrate the 15th Anniversary of the mod's release we have partnered with Makeship to run a special 2.0 release of the wonderful Aerbunny Plushie! www.makeship.com/products/aer... Spread the word, THE AERBUNNIES ARE BACK!

Today, July 22nd 2026, marks 15 years since the release of the original Aether mod Please enjoy this special anniversary artwork and message written by the Aether Team Lead, Katie Payn, to commemorate this amazing milestone

The Aether II Alpha 4 is here! This update introduces the Shifting Glass loot item for dodging and dashing, The Aerbunny Bell companion item, as well as the aquatic Prismallard mob! You can also find improved biome visuals and new structure generation alongside many bug fixes and improvements!

We're incredibly proud to announce that The Aether is officially coming to Bedrock for the first time this summer! In collaboration with Spark Universe, Aether Legends will debut on the Minecraft Marketplace on July 14th Learn more about this new project at: aetherlegends.gg

We've released a new hotfix for The Aether II on 26.1.2 This patch includes numerous fixes for crashes and other issues found following the release of Alpha 3 and some back end additions and changes, check out the changelog on modrinth for more details modrinth.com/mod/aether-i...

The Aether II has been ported to 26.1! We're sticking to this drop going forward to build and flesh out The Aether II's content. This updated alpha includes the Golden Wyndberry, which allows you to access the Golden Dandelion mechanic in the dimension, as well as a restored Aether Start config!

Its the final day of the plushie campaign! Just under 15 hours remain so get your orders in before time runs out! If we hit 400 sales before the campaign ends our revenue cut goes up by a lot, so if you're wanting to support the mod's development picking up a Plush is a great way to do that!

Hey so buying an Aerwhale plush really helps support me financially, which is gonna be crucial for my work on the Aether mods going forward as HRT is extremely expensive. So consider getting yourself a lovely Aerwhale! They're very huggable and are also HUGE.

Our Jumbo Aerwhale Plush Makeship campaign is also over 90% funded! Go pick yours up before the campaign ends later this month! (And reminder we'll be doing 2.0 releases of the Aerbunny and Moa Plushes soon too for those that missed them the first time round) www.makeship.com/products/aer...

The Aether II has been updated to 1.21.11! Along with the port, Alpha 2 brings various new ruin structures across multiple biomes, new blocks to build with, and new loot to add to your arsenal! Rebalanced biome distribution and tweaked world generation also enriches exploration gameplay!

Still got lots to do, many bits of content to produce over public alpha testing, but already this is easily the best version of the project I've worked on in my 14 years on the project. I hope players agree with us and I hope everyone who worked on the project in the past is proud of the end result

In other news We're aiming to release The Aether II into public alpha testing at the end of February, after roughly 21 months of development following the project's revival in 2024 Genuinely so proud of my small team, really hope people love The Aether II as much as we do!

We recently passed a monumental milestone with 100 *million* total downloads across all our projects on @curseforge.com This time two years ago we celebrated 30 million downloads, so in the last two years alone we got a staggering 70 million downloads! Aether 1 itself has passed 60M alone!

It really warms my heart to see the Aether remaster so enthusiastically adopted by the community, and I'm really excited to properly debut the reboot of The Aether II to everyone very soon! We at the team really think we've crafted something special for everyone

This year is already off to a mad start, in part because of the extra attention our collab with Origin Realms, we hit 5 million downloads per month for the first time ever in January! Thank you everyone who has played and enjoyed our mods! Here's to hopefully a very good 2026 for the project!

I've been informed that roughly 50 million of those downloads were in 2025, so we've been seeing a genuinely maddening rise in download frequency in the last couple years! This hopefully shows how healthy and strong the MC modding community is, with an ever increasing player base of awesome people!
