Minecraft Diamond Level: Where To Find Diamonds In 1.18
If you are looking for the Minecraft diamond level, you'll have to dig a little deeper than what you are used to. Thanks to the Minecraft Caves and Cliffs Part 2 update the previous Y-Levels of 1-15 aren't guaranteed to provide you with any of the goods. Instead, you may have to dig further between Y-Levels 14 and Y-Level -63. The update increased vertical space by 50%, meaning that you can go deeper (and higher) than ever before, however, they can still only be found in Overworld.
If you are yet to update Minecraft, then you'll still be able to find the diamonds in the original Y-Levels. However, considering how much of an expansion the update is, you'll likely want to get that updated as soon as possible.
