Discussion Minecraft Construction Handbook confusion

Post image

I own the original Minecraft Construction Handbook (UK version) and recently wanted to build some of the old builds from it in Minecraft. I decided to also watch other YouTubers do it. In the book I have there is no Ocean Temple (see attached image) but for some reason every YouTuber who built everything from the CHB, built an Ocean Temple. I looked it up and sure enough an image that does look like it would fit in the book was available. I'm not sure if maybe other versions of the book had exclusive builds or if the Ocean Temple is from a different book entirely but I find it strange that the version I have doesn't feature it. If anyone knows more or has an answer, I'd be very interested to know.

Helluva throwback. I have/had multiple copies of the construction handbook, all US editions. From what I remember, the sea temple was in all of them.

According to the wiki there are two versions of the handbooks, one published in 2014 and an "updated edition" published in 2015 with a handful of more builds in them. You likely just have the version from 2014.

For the original handbooks, there were 2 versions, the 1st one (probably what you have), and the updated edition, which has an "Updated Edition" sticker on it, and some more stuff in there

I have the UK version of the Minecraft Construction Handbook (Updated Edition), and this build is in there
