The next major game drop introduces a transformative mob that inherits block properties, colorful sulfur caves, and hazardous gases. Bedrock beta testers can jump in immediately while Mojang iterates based on community feedback from Minecraft Live.
Mojang has released the first testable features from its upcoming game drop for Minecraft Bedrock Edition betas and previews. Players can now experiment with the sulfur cube, a new mob that spawns in sulfur caves and transforms based on what it consumes.
How the Sulfur Cube Works
Feed the sulfur cube different blocks and watch it gain their properties. It can bounce like a slime block, slide across surfaces, or stick to walls. This creates chaotic and creative gameplay moments especially when multiple cubes interact in the wild.
The new sulfur caves and springs biome features watery environments with bubbling sulfur springs on the surface that hint at the caves below. Inside expect hostile mobs, potent sulfur blocks that create bubble columns underwater and release gases causing nausea to players and mobs alike.
Fresh Building Blocks and Iterations
Alongside the mob and biome come new sulfur and cinnabar block sets in bright yellow and red tones. Mojang has already tweaked colors and textures based on feedback from the Minecraft Live reveal including making raw cinnabar rockier and updating the chiseled cinnabar texture.
Java Edition snapshots with these features are expected soon. In the meantime Bedrock players can enable the preview to test and send feedback directly to the team.
- Sulfur Cube changes physics based on fed blocks
- Sulfur caves accessible via surface springs
- Potent sulfur causes nausea and bubble effects
- Updated cinnabar and sulfur building blocks
- Community feedback already shaping the drop
This drop gives players a chance to influence development while enjoying new ways to play with mobs and the environment. The combination of cute chaos from the cubes and hazardous cave exploration offers something for both creative builders and survival fans.
