The shattered savanna plateau was a rare variant of the savanna biome that no longer generates since Caves & Cliffs: Part II, and was removed in Java Edition.

Description

Like the normal windswept savanna, the shattered savanna plateau variant featured steep mountains, cliffs, and overhangs, which made it a treacherous place to explore. Though it was nearly indistinguishable from the regular shattered savanna at first glance, the shattered plateau's terrain was slightly gentler, though often risked fatal fall damage if not above water. The giant lakes characteristic of the regular shattered savanna did not generate here either. The terrain generation in the shattered savanna plateau ignored the generation height limit, allowing for mountains that could rarely reach the build height limit. This made it the highest biome in the game.

In Bedrock Edition, the foliage was a more vibrant green color, and rain would often occur in it.[1] Neither villages nor pillager outposts could generate in this biome.

Mobs

Shattered savanna plateaus used the same mob spawning chances as savannas.
