There are guides for this update!
 
See Java Edition guides/Chaos Cubed and Bedrock Edition guides/Chaos Cubed for a guide to all of the new features introduced in Chaos Cubed.

Chaos Cubed is a game drop released on June 16, 2026 as Java Edition 26.2 and Bedrock Edition 26.30. It focuses on the sulfur caves, a cave biome that is home to sulfur cubes, along with the new sulfur and cinnabar blocks with their respective variants. It was announced at Minecraft LIVE – March 2026.

Some features of the drop were released earlier as an experiment in Bedrock Edition 26.20.

Sulfur cube

  • A passive slime-like mob that spawns in sulfur caves.
  • When killed, it will split into 2 small cubes, like other slime-like mobs.
    • Unlike the slime and magma cube, the small versions can grow up into the large version, like how a baby mob works, and the small cubes' growth can be sped up with slimeballs.
  • It is attracted to the dropped item form of most full blocks. The cube can pick up a block, or a player can use a full block on the cube, causing the cube to absorb it into its body.
    • πŸ‘ Image
      In this state, they cannot move on their own and cannot be damaged by most sources. Instead, they are knocked back when attacked. They still take damage from some other sources, such as crammingβ€Œ[Java Edition only], suffocating, and burning from fire or lava.
      • The knockback also depends on the damage that would have been dealt, with stronger attacks sending the cube further.
    • Can be leashed in that state.
    • Blocks can be swapped by feeding it.
    • Shearing it removes and drops the block, reverting back to normal.
    • Depending on the block, they will behave differently when punched while in its immobile state, the following properties are:
      • πŸ‘ Image
        Football/Regular
        : Medium speed, medium bounciness, medium ground friction and low air drag. (block example: grass block)
      • πŸ‘ Image
        Rubber ball/Bouncy
        : Fast speed, high bounciness, medium ground friction and low air drag. (block example: oak log)
      • πŸ‘ Image
        Golf ball/Fast flat
        : Fast speed, low bounciness, medium ground friction and low air drag. (block example: moss block)
        • Sinks underwater.
      • πŸ‘ Image
        Hockey puck/Fast sliding
        : Fast speed, no bounciness, low ground friction and low air drag. (block example: blue ice)
        • Sinks underwater.
      • πŸ‘ Image
        High resistance
        : Very slow, low drag with low bounce with high friction, only affects soul sand and soul soil.
        • Sinks underwater.
      • πŸ‘ Image
        Beach ball/Light
        : Slow speed, high bounciness, medium ground friction and high air drag, only affects wools.
      • πŸ‘ Image
        Medicine ball/Slow flat
        : Slow speed, low bounciness, medium ground friction and medium air drag. (block example: block of iron)
        • Sinks underwater.
      • πŸ‘ Image
        Curling stone/Slow sliding
        : Slow speed, no bounciness, low ground friction and low air drag. (block example: red mushroom block)
        • Sinks underwater.
      • πŸ‘ Image
        Sticky
        : Fast speed and low air drag like a golf ball, but sticks with extremely high ground friction and no bounce to simulate stickiness, only affects the honeycomb block.
        • Sinks underwater.
      • πŸ‘ Image
        Explosive: Medium speed, medium bounciness, and medium ground friction like a football, but with high air drag, only affects TNT.
        • Can be ignited in all manners a TNT block can be ignited, and can also be ignited by magma blocks and firework explosions.
          • Is primed for 6 seconds until it explodes, unlike the TNT block which takes 4 seconds to explode.
            • In that state, it cannot be sheared, picked up in a bucket, or damaged in any way.
      • πŸ‘ Image
        Slow bouncy
        : Slow speed, high bounciness, medium friction and medium air drag. (block example: stone)
        • Sinks underwater.
      • πŸ‘ Image
        Hot
        : Same properties as football, but damages entities on contact, only affects the magma block.
        • Can ignite an explosive sulfur cube on touch.
        • Frost Walker grants immunity to its damage.
