Since certain mods only focus on one or two features or game mechanics, the community also started creating modpacks that completely changed the in-game world by adding loads of features at once.

One of the modpacks is called BlockFront, which essentially turns the game into World War II. Here is everything to know about it in Minecraft.

You can choose from rifles, pistols, submachine guns, and more. Each of them has different stats and qualities. You can also customize the loadouts and get comfortable with the controls.

BlockFront also has different maps of Normandy, Berlin, Dunkirk, and more. Each map is designed differently and is unique-looking to further immerse users. You will witness loads of planes, turrets, tanks, and other vehicles roaming around the map and shooting at set intervals as well.

Though it was first featured on Modrinth three years ago, the mod/modpack is still in the alpha stage and will take some time to fully release. However, it still runs great on the latest version of the game.
