Mictlan is for souls who did not die in battle, childbirth, human sacrifice or drowning/rain related diseases. And Xibalba is more the place Death comes from, There is also no clear evidence on how the souls are treated in Xibalba and Mictlan. But it seems the Gods of Xibalaba seems to enjoy tricking people who come and visits them. I don't know what "visits" mean in that context but stories of people who come to visit Xibalba seems to be alive when they enter and have to face a different challenge every night during their stay. but other than that it seems Mictlan and Xibalba seems to be more like a challenge rather than a place where the souls of the dead go.
