How do I install ReZeroDeath?

Install the matching mod loader (Forge, Fabric or NeoForge) for your Minecraft version. Download the .jar. Put it in the .minecraft/mods folder and launch that loader profile. Opens on CurseForge — not every file is mirrored on our own servers.

What Minecraft version does ReZeroDeath work with?

The listing gives Minecraft 1.21.1, 1.20.1. This is the version stated by the author or source site, not something we verified ourselves.

Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

This mod plays the return by death sound from Re:Zero when respawning, for those who want to add a more dramatic tone to their deaths.

This mod does not make you respawn instantly, nor does it create checkpoints like in the series, only plays a sound upon respawning, to achieve an effect closer to a real Return by Death do

"/gamerule doImmediateRespawn true" and "/gamerule keepInventory true"

I also added a little easter egg when typing something in chat.

Nothing fancy for now, writing certain words in chat kills you.

Words that kill you:

"returnbydeath", "returnfromdeath",
"returningbydeath", "returningfromdeath",
"returnedfromdeath", "returnedbydeath",
"resurrectbydeath", "resurrectfromdeath",
"comebackbydeath", "comebackfromdeath",
"deathloop"

Just for comedic purposes, didn't want to complicate it too much.
