How to Find Buried Treasure in Minecraft Bedrock Edition
For starters, you need to find a Treasure Map. The Buried Treasure Map is a special item in the game that will show you the location where the Treasure Chest is buried, marked with an X. But to acquire it, you need to do a little diving! In the ocean biome, find a shipwreck or underwater ruins. The safest option is shipwrecks, which almost 100% always contain a Treasure Map in the Map Chest, while in underwater ruins there is approximately a 50:50 chance that you will find a map.
Once you’ve got a Treasure Map, select it like any item and you will be able to see your location on the map as well as a red X marking the location of the buried Treasure Chest. Use this map as you would any standard map in Minecraft to navigate to the location.
When you reach the X location on the map, you need to stand so that the player cursor on the map is in a pixel exactly above the red X, and facing north. All that’s left now is to start digging like crazy until you stumble upon a buried treasure chest – and hope it contains something worth the effort. Happy digging!
