    The volcano could be at the centre of a small sized island (compared to the volcano). Farming in the non-erupting side should be greatly boosted, due to extremely fertile land. If the volcano is about to erupt, all mobs and villagers would immediately evacuate to the edge of the island. Villagers may be able to use boats to escape. After a lot of lava has settled, a new layer of land should form, with stone, cobblestone, andesite, diorite and some obsidian. Also, other blocks could be added like pumice. On top of all the formed rock, course dirt should form. Once the course dirt is made fertile, farming on it should be greatly boosted, due to extremely fertile land near volcanoes. This would also increase the size of the island. Villagers may return after a few days

    There should also be a Roman city on the side of the volcano.

    The Volcano should be a rarer biome, where the Sniffer can only be found (Implementing the sniffer here :). ). Volcanic ash should also spawn in this biome, similar to snow, with ash falling from the sky during storms like snow. I think the ash falling from the sky would better fit the biome than snow on one side as you had suggested. It could be used in a recipe (improved on by one I found from a user on Reddit) along with Magma cream and bonemeal to create a soil that improves crop growth and yield. Of course, this is only one of many possibilities for which volcanic ash could be used. The volcano opens up the Earth and allows for this once-thought-to-be-extinct creature, the sniffer, to thrive again, in this lush, fertile climate. The sniffer comes and finds new seeds to help repopulate the area with new plants closer to the village, where it is safe to live. I think this would be a great way to implement the sniffer, a great way to bring two ideas together. I think an eruption might be too difficult to add to the game, but a simple, once already-erupted volcano, with active flows, might be a better route, as others have suggested.

    I'm seeing some concerns over some kind of "lava rising" mechanic, but I don't think that is necessary. There are two alternate, less complicated solutions for this. 1 is boring but u could just have the lava stagnant and look cool but not actually erupt. 2 is instead of a visual lava rising u could have something smaller like fiery rock projectiles and dark clouds blinding. As for the village, it's a cool idea but I don't really know. It is kind of unrealistic cuz I don't know why villagers would take the time to build a village next to an active volcano. This biome would also have to be INSANELY rare as well in order to make it unique. Last thought, there should be a new wood type that spawns in the land around the volcano and in the nether: the ash tree. The wood would be dark grey and grainy and can be crafted into all of the wood items.

    It doesn't even have to erupt. It can be a dormant volcano or something.

    It should have a ruined portal at the bottom, and sometimes a monster spawner, with a new zombie type( the ashed  ) that inflect fire damage, anyway, I like this idea.

    This is a cool idea, but would probably lag the game

    I don't think it should be too lava heavy besides magma. It would detract from the nether

    If the volcano is so tall the players would not want to climb it would not be worth the climb and the only way to get up esily is with an elytra. I would not want to beat the game just to climb a volcano when you could just go to the nether it's like the same thing. It is a creative idea ( no pun intended ) but think of it as a survival player would it realy be worth it.

    ( just some constructive critisisum, sorry. )

    I think it should erupt after seven Minecraft days, to give players the idea that this biome is a safe paradise. It will have lava coming down the mountain and consuming the city, but most of the eruption will just be changes in the sky and the surrounding air to give an illusion of erupting without crashing the game. This is not the type of biome you want to build your house in.

    original: Je ne pense pas qu'il faut ajouter des éruptions parce que sa fera d'énorme dégat de terrain sans pouvoir avoir un controle

    version english: I don't think we should add eruptions because its will do huge damage to the ground without being able to have control.

    this would be so cool, minus the village and snow, and perhaps not the eruption but a new type of lava block that spits more particles and smoke.

    If this is announced, a new structure could be a follow up, that potentially has a new boss if anyone thinks of something cool to put in the Volcano. Also, there should be something for the brush to discover.

    So, what you're saying is that you want the Nether in the Overworld?

    What I believe is that Instead of a biome, make it a structure. Adding Volcanos to Minecraft would be a good idea.

    Alongside this idea on the lower levels of the volcano there can be charred forest and biome with ash covered blocks and burnt trees with a new wood type black or gray in color. I imagine there would me rivers of lava and ash raining down. There could also be a increase chance to find coal and abandoned villages and other structures. This update could also have new mobs.

    Also, because it is more dangerous to mine in a volcano, add more ores, like emerald, and maybe diamonds. Also, for an eruption, maybe add some fireballs, almost like a fire-slime, but keep this biome in the overworld

    I think the basalt delta is kind of what you are thinking of...

    je suis pour mais il y a 1 inconvénient: la lave pourrait faire laguer la map

    également, il faudrait qu'il y ait un nouveau liquide: la boue. et de temps en temps, il éclaterait mal, ferait fondre la neige et provoquerait des coulées de boue

    I would like a cooled lava block, I would prefer a hot springs biome to a volcano one. If they were to add one I would prefer it to not erupt as that would be quite annoying

    I know Mojang doesn't like the idea of natural disasters that destroy your builds, and I agree with them, but they don't even need to erupt. They can just be filled with lava and be dormant and that'd be fine. They look cool and would add a lot to the world generation and that's the important part.

    And they can also make it extra rare so the world isn't just filled with lava and volcanoes everywhere.
