Minecraft enthusiasts can now rejoice as the much-anticipated Chaos Cubed game drop has officially launched on the Nintendo Switch. This update introduces an array of exciting features, including the intriguing sulfur cube, a new biome, and a variety of blocks designed to enhance gameplay.
New mob: Sulfur cubes
Prepare to encounter one of Minecraft’s most whimsical additions: the sulfur cube. These passive mobs inhabit the newly unveiled sulfur caves, where they appear to bounce around in a carefree manner. However, there’s more than meets the eye. When players feed a sulfur cube a block—either by hand or by leaving it nearby—an astonishing transformation occurs. The sulfur cube can absorb various blocks, each imparting unique effects on its properties. Players can experiment with different materials to unlock a range of behaviors, from bouncing to sinking, and even sliding. Don’t overlook the potential of TNT or magma for some truly explosive fun!
For those who wish to befriend a sulfur cube, options abound. Players can attach them to a leash or scoop them up with a bucket. Alternatively, a well-aimed bouncy wool block could send a sulfur cube soaring towards your base!
New cave: Sulfur caves
The sulfur caves serve as the natural habitat for sulfur cubes, but they offer much more than just this quirky mob. Adventurers will encounter a variety of hostile creatures lurking within, alongside vibrant sulfur and cinnabar blocks perfect for construction. Among these features are sulfur spikes—sharp-looking blocks that, unlike their pointed dripstone counterparts, pose no threat to players.
On the surface of the Overworld, players will find sulfur springs and geysers, which hint at the sulfur caves hidden below. While these springs may appear inviting, they are shrouded in toxic sulfurous gases that induce nausea in both players and mobs. Geysers, reminiscent of their real-world namesakes, erupt with water at high pressure, demanding careful navigation or a quick escape for those who tread too close!
Potent sulfur and new block sets
At the heart of the sulfur springs’ bubbling nature lies potent sulfur, responsible for the noxious gases and explosive geysers. When placed beneath water, potent sulfur generates bubbles and gas puffs. If positioned atop a magma block and submerged in water, it can even create a geyser—provided there are no more than four blocks of water above it.
Music disc
Adding to the excitement, the Chaos Cubed update features the aptly named Bounce music disc. This track is sure to inspire players to hop around like a lively sulfur cube. Adventurers can discover this music disc tucked away in chests located within mineshafts that intersect with the sulfur caves.
With the latest update, players are encouraged to dive into the world of sulfur cubes, explore the captivating sulfur caves, construct with new blocks, and unleash a bit of chaos alongside friends!
