Minecraft: Bedrock Edition 26.30 Changelog - Chaos Cubed – Minecraft Feedback

Posted: 16 June 2026

Chaos Cubed has landed in Minecraft! Hunt for vibrant Sulfur springs in the Overworld to discover a striking cave biome hidden below. Swim in bubbling Sulfur pools if you dare, build with colorful Cinnabar and Sulfur, but best of all – uncover the Sulfur Cube’s relentless appetite for blocks! From bouncing and sliding to explosive surprises, this unpredictable mob unlocks exciting new ways to build, compete, and survive depending on what you feed it. Chaos is only a block away in our newest drop. Play today in Minecraft!

Chaos Cubed Features

Bucket of Sulfur Cube

Need an easy way of getting your new Sulfur Cube friend from the Sulfur caves to your base? Sure, you could experiment with blocks to make the Sulfur Cube bounce, slide, or traverse long distances – or you can just scoop it up with a bucket and tuck it safely away in your inventory.

Sulfur Cubes

Sulfur Cubes are a new mob coming to Minecraft with a curious appetite for... blocks! Found in Sulfur caves, this curious mob transforms depending on which block the player feeds it. Experiment and discover how to send Sulfur Cubes bouncing, sliding, and more!

Sulfur springs

Found across the Overworld, you’ll know if you’ve spotted a Sulfur pool thanks to its Sulfur and Cinnabar blocks – and the noxious gas coming from it! But dig beneath these and you’ll discover a Sulfur cave, filled with new blocks to mine and a new mob to meet!

Potent Sulfur

The new potent Sulfur block is the reason why Sulfur springs are so bubbly – and a bit nauseating. You can also create hot bubbling pools by placing potent Sulfur beneath water! You’ll soon spy bubble columns, as well as puffs of noxious gas. Build with caution, because noxious gas will trigger nausea in players and nearby mobs!

Sulfur caves

Discover this new cave type, with shallow pools of water and glow lichen. Sulfur caves are filled with yellow blocks of Sulfur, red blocks of Cinnabar, Sulfur spikes, and a curious mob called the Sulfur Cube!

New block sets

You’ll find two new block sets in Sulfur caves – Cinnabar and Sulfur! These new blocks allow you to add rich reds and yellows into your builds, and each comes with its own full block set. Cobble them, craft with them, turn them into stairs or bricks – the choice is yours!

Sulfur Spikes

Sulfur Spikes grow on Cinnabar and Sulfur blocks, giving Sulfur caves a distinctive look. Unlike Pointed Dripstone, stepping on Sulfur Spikes is harmless, but they can still fall and hurt you – it’s just a pretty rare occurrence.

Geysers

Watch your step or you’ll go flying! Geysers form when a Magma block is generated or placed underneath a potent Sulfur block that’s submerged underneath 1 to 4 blocks of water. Use them for a vertical boost or a dramatic landscaping element!

Special block: TNT

Why would anyone feed a TNT block to a Sulfur Cube? To see what happens, of course! Try it out for yourself, ignite it, and enjoy (or deeply regret) the explosive results.

Special block: Magma

Play hot potato by having a Sulfur Cube absorb a Magma block.

Data-driven UI (DDUI)

We have significantly updated the implementation of DDUI as we prepare for stabalization. Please test the latest changes in this week's preview and let us know if you're seeing any issue.

Replaced Observable with ObservableString, ObservableNumber, ObservableUIRawMessage, and ObservableBoolean.
- Instead of using Observable.create you should now use the constructor, i.e. new ObservableString("hello!")
Renamed DropdownItem to DropdownItemData
Changed values of DataDrivenScreenClosedReason:
- UserClose -> ClientClosed
- ServerClose -> ServerClosed
- UserBusy is unchanged
Fixed a bug where you could not show ModalFormData or MessageFormData directly after CustomForm or MessageBox.
Released MessageBox, CustomForm, and all supporting APIs out of beta and into @minecraft/server-ui 2.1.0

Biome Components

The following biome components have been taken out of beta and are available starting with the "1.26.30" format version:
- "minecraft:surface_builder"
- "minecraft:subsurface_builder"
The minecraft:noise_gradient surface builder type has been updated. The API is the same as before, but the noise ranges provided are now clamped to the range [-1, 1] instead of [0, 1]

Blocks

Fixed a bug where the "minecraft:material_instances" on custom blocks would override the "minecraft:material_instances" inside a "minecraft:item_visual", causing custom blocks held by the player to be rendered incorrectly (MCPE-234766)
Fixed permutation component constraints for multi-blocks with format_version >= 1.26.20
Released the culling_shape field in the minecraft:geometry component from behind the VoxelShapes experiment. Non-unit-Cube culling shapes for vanilla blocks (e.g. fences, bells, slabs) still require the experiment.
Released the snow logging behavior for Block Precipitation Interaction component out of experimental. The feature requires version 1.21.120+
- Fixed bug where custom blocks with random_offset would be put back in the center of its position when snow logged.
- Changed the precipitation behavior value from "snow_log_no_collision" to "snowlogging" to avoid confusion regarding its functionality.
Added n_way_visual_rotation field to block geometry component, which takes the name of a block state as a string, which drives visual-only rotation of the block based on that state. Supported states are: "minecraft:cardinal_direction", "minecraft:sixteen_way_rotation", and all custom states.
Added "minecraft:sixteen_way_rotation" as an enabled state for the "minecraft:placement_direction" block trait, which will automatically apply a state value from 0-15 based on player rotation at time of block placement.
Fixed block traits not respecting experimental requirements for format_version >= 1.26.20
Blocks with a custom beforeOnPlayerPlace scripting event placed by an item with a minecraft:block_placer component no longer desyncs upon placement (MCPE-238017)
Added the lava_flammable field to the minecraft:flammable component
- Supported values are always and never (default)
- When set to always, the block is considered when lava attempts to spread fire after adjacent block updates, while still respecting normal fire placement rules
- When set to never, the block is excluded from that check
- The "lava_flammable" field of the "minecraft:flammable" component is now usable without the Experimental Upcoming Creator Features

Client Entities

Added the hide_held_items Molang expression property to minecraft:client_entity's scripts section that hides held items when it evaluates to a non-zero value

Components

Fixed an assert that would occur when trying to use the minecraft:noise_gradient builder type inside a minecraft:surface_builder biome component if the biome definition's schema version was set to beta.
Added field 'stop_if_holding_item' to "minecraft:behavior.pickup_items"
- Defaults to false,
- If true, the mob will not pick up another item if the item's preferred slot matches

Commands

Fixed command auto-completion for custom block states with integer values showing incorrect zero-based indices instead of the actual defined values (MCPE-236301)
Removed the locatorbar boolean gamerule. Worlds that previously had locatorbar set to true will automatically migrate to the new playerWaypoints Game Rule with a value of everyone, and false will migrate to off.
Added the playerWaypoints gamerule as a replacement for the deprecated locatorbar Game Rule. Accepted values are off (players are not shown on the locator bar) and everyone (all players are visible on the locator bar).
/stopsound command now produces exactly one success or failure message upon completion (MCPE-236165)
/playsound command now produces exactly one success or failure message upon completion (MCPE-236157)
Change how the localization process percentage signs in formatted strings: a numbered form with an invalid parameter will be left as it is
Fixed an issue where every /camerashake add changed the shake types of previously added shake events
Fix missing suggestions for commands typed after '/execute run setblock' (MCPE-238266)

Content Log

Content log messages now cut out the user's personal file path prefix to instead only show the relevant path

Entity

Released execute_event_on_home_block entity event response out of experimental

Entity Components

The following entity components have been taken out of beta and are available starting with the "1.26.30" format version:
- "minecraft:apply_knockback_rules"
- "minecraft:pushable_by_entity"
- "minecraft:bounciness"
- "minecraft:air_drag_modifier"
Added the use_self_as_damage_source property to the minecraft:area_attack component
- If set to false, other entites won't retaliate against the attacking entity
Added "presets" field to the "minecraft:pushable_by_entity" component, allowing customization of push behavior per entity type
- These changes are in beta format version, the intent is to add these changes to format version 1.26.30, when going out of beta
- Each preset entry supports the following fields:
  - "filter", conditions that must be met for the preset to be applied
  - "push_mode", the type of push calculation: "default", "legacy_boat", or "legacy_minecart"
  - "strength_multiplier", scales the push force applied to the entity
  - "min_distance", minimum distance between entities for push forces to be applied
  - "push_scale_self", scales how much push force this entity applies to itself away on collision
  - "push_scale_other", scales how much push force this entity applies to the other entity on collision
  - "play_sound_cooldown_in_seconds", cooldown in seconds between sounds, a lower number results in more sounds
  - "play_sound_impulse_threshold", minimum change of velocity needed to trigger the push sound, a lower value means higher sensitivity
Added unleash_on_removal field to minecraft:leashable component
- When set to true (the default), the entity is unleashed from the entity it is leashed to once the component is removed
- Entities with format versions prior to 1.26.30 will have this field defaulted to false to preserve existing behavior
Added unleash_on_removal field to minecraft:leashable_to component
- When set to true (the default), entities leashed to the entity are unleashed once the component is removed
- Entities with format versions prior to 1.26.30 will have this field defaulted to false to preserve existing behavior
Added the field extra_knockback_approach to minecraft:apply_knockback_rules preset settings for handling extra knockback from enchantments, sprinting and swimming
- reapply_default preserves the current behaviour where knockback is reapplied with the new power and a default preset
- multiply instead combines it into the original knockback calculation by multiplying the power value in the preset provided by minecraft:apply_knockback_rules
Made several changes to minecraft:pushable_by_entity presets:
- The min_distance field now controls the minimum range at which push interactions can occur for all push_mode values
  - Distance is measured as the horizontal distance between the centers of the two entities
- Renamed the kick_distance_threshold field to max_distance, which now controls the maximum range at which push interactions can occur for all push_mode values
  - Distance is measured as the horizontal distance between the center of the pushed entity and the edge of the pushing entity's collision box
- Added a play_sound field to control whether the pushed_by_player sound is played
- Added a new none value to the push_mode field, which disables pushing behavior entirely

Entity Event Responses

Added unleash entity event response
- If its unleash_self field is set to true, it unleashes the entity from the entity it is leashed to
- If its unleash_others field is set to true, it unleashes all entities that are leashed to the entity

Entity Filters

Added the redstone_strength_at_position entity filter that tests the redstone signal strength at the subject entity's position
The redstone_strength_at_position entity filter now correctly evaluates to 0 when no signal is present
The redstone_strength_at_position entity filter now correctly evaluates to the redstone strength when a Redstone Wire is pointing at the evaluated position

Features

Adding a new feature type height_difference_filter_feature
- This feature is meant to be used as a filter to filter away positions based on height differences close to the placed feature
- Example usage to allow Pink Petals to only place close to cliffs:
```
{
  "format_version": "1.26.30",
  "minecraft:height_difference_filter_feature": {
    "description": {
      "identifier": "minecraft:pink_petals_near_cliff_feature"
    },
    "places_feature": "minecraft:pink_petals_feature",
    "min_required_negative_height_diff": 5,
    "search_radius": 5
  }
}
```
- min_required_upward_height_diff Specifies the minimum height difference required upwards
- min_required_downward_height_diff Specifies the minimum height difference required downwards
- max_allowed_upward_height_diff Specifies the maximum height difference allowed upwards
- max_allowed_downward_height_diff Specifies the maximum height difference allowed downwards
- search_radius specifies the length in each cardinal direction the filter will check for blocks against the given differences
- places_feature specifies what feature should be placed when filter succeeds
Added an only_check_intersection_for_motion_blocking_blocks field to the block_intersection constraint of minecraft:structure_template_feature
- When true, only motion-blocking blocks within the structure are checked for intersections against the block_allowlist
- When false, all blocks in the structure except empty ones are checked for intersections, including air
- Defaults to true, preserving existing behavior
- Motion-blocking blocks are full blocks that block motion
Added a ground_level field to minecraft:structure_template_feature
- Specifies which Y coordinate of the structure is considered its ground level
- Used as a vertical offset during placement and determines which layer of the structure is checked by the leveled and grounded constraints
- All non-air blocks at this level define positions where the leveled and grounded constraints are checked
- If the value exceeds the structure's height, it is clamped to the maximum valid value and a content warning is emitted
- Defaults to 0
Added a new leveled option to the constraints field of minecraft:structure_template_feature
- When specified, ensures the structure's ground level is placed on mostly flat terrain
- Includes a max_steepness field that defines the maximum allowed height difference between the placement position and terrain samples taken at the structure's ground level
  - A valid terrain sample consists of a solid block with a non-solid block above it
  - Defaults to 2
The only_check_intersection_for_motion_blocking_blocks field in the block_intersection constraint of minecraft:structure_template_feature is now optional

Gameplay

Fixed a bug where the loot table match_tool condition could match when blocks were broken or mobs were killed with an empty hand (MCPE-188723)

General

Projectiles spawned using the "minecraft:spawn_entity" component now respect the anchor field of "minecraft:projectile"
Fixed a bug where pack settings could be lost when an older version of the same pack without settings defined existed in the cache

- Known issue around RTX textures displaying incorrectly; this will be resolved in an upcoming Preview.
Restructured internal graphics settings to be more compact and separated by platform

Items

A new field "start_using" was added to the "minecraft:use_modifiers" item component. It can either be set to "always" or "if_first". It is defaulted to "always" with format version lower than 1.26.30 and "if_first" otherwise. When set to "if_first", "minecraft:use_modifiers" will only attempt to start using the item if no other component has already attempted to.
Items with both a "minecraft:use_modifiers" and a "minecraft:shooter" component with a charge duration will now properly charge and shoot with "start_using" set to "if_first". (MCPE-228331) (MCPE-228332) (MCPE-228333)
The "minecraft:wearable" component no longer overrides the "minecraft:max_stack_size" component when both are present on a custom item (MCPE-176931)
Items with both a "minecraft:use_modifiers" and a "minecraft:shooter" component with no available ammo will no longer draw with "start_using" set to "if_first" on the "minecraft:use_modifiers" component (MCPE-228331)

Loot Tables

Fixed loot table container filling so when no empty slots remain, generated loot now merges into matching non-full stacks instead of failing to place (MCPE-233039)

Mobs

The effect_amplifier field on the minecraft:attack component is now applied to the inflicted status effect, so amplifier-sensitive effects such as Hunger now scale correctly when triggered by a mob's melee attack
Fixed actor textures not loading properly when applying packs with older min engine version

Molang

Added the query.fuse_time query that returns the remaining fuse time of an entity, or -1 if the entity doesn't have a "minecraft:explode" component

Network Protocol

Modified the binary format of BossEventPacket

Renderer

Fixed a bug where held_item_scale was not correctly applied to data driven blocks
Entity held_item_scale now accepts a Molang expression for state-driven scaling, and consistently applies to the main hand only in both first- and third-person

Stability and Performance

When leaving the game in split screen the ecomode system could receive a callback after the client had been removed causing a crash

Surface Builders

The NoiseDescriptor schema definition has been introduced. The purpose of this schema is to be used as part of a surface- or subsurface-builder's schema. It has the following fields:
- name: The string used to initialize the noise. Has no impact on the qualitative aspects of the generated values (required)
- first_octave: Governs the general frequency characteristics of the generated noise. Lower value results in noise with lower frequency content (required)
- amplitudes: Governs the attenuation of the first n octaves in the generated noise (required)
The NoiseBlockSpecifier schema definition has been introduced. The purpose of this schema is to be used as part of a surface- or subsurface-builder's schema. It has the following fields:
- noise: The noise identifier associated with a particular NoiseBlockSpecifier (non-required)
- threshold: The minimum sampled noise value associated with the provided Block (non-required)
- range: The range of sampled noise value associated with the provided Block (non-required)
- block: The block to place if the noise sample satisfies either the threshold or range condition (required)
The minecraft:noise_gradient surface- and subsurface builder has an updated API consisting of the following:
- noise: a NoiseDescriptor (required)
- non_replaceable_blocks: A list of blocks that the surface builder is not allowed to replace. Leaving this list empty or unspecified will allow the replacement of any (non-air) block type (non-required)
- noise_block_specifiers: An array of NoiseBlockSpecifiers defining which sample ranges of noise are associated with which blocks. The ranges provided are valid on the interval [0, 1], and may overlap at their endpoints (required)

User Interface

Fixed marketplace offers sometimes showing coin icons in places they shouldn't
Fixed a bug where the coin icon may not appear on certain Marketplace offers

Voxel Shapes

Internally used Voxel Shapes have been released to the bedrock-samples Github repo (https://github.com/Mojang/bedrock-samples/) for creator reference when making their own shapes.
Matching shapes will be merged at runtime for better performance.
- ex. minecraft:composter & custom:composter (where custom:composter is a copy of the exported minecraft:composter shape) will be de-duplicated down on world load to save memory.
For a deeper dive into Voxel Shape usage please see the additional documentation available here: Voxel Shapes | Microsoft Learn.

World Generation

Fixed infinite loading issue for biomes with subsurface builder (MCPE-238131)

Added class PlayerStartBreakingBlockAfterEventSignal to beta
Added interface PlayerBreakingBlockEventOptions to beta
Added property WorldAfterEvents.playerStartBreakingBlock to beta
Removed the beta Player.partyInfo scripting property and PartyInfo interface from @minecraft/server

Added snow logging behavior for multi-blocks
Added the 'minecraft:block_entity` block component
- It has a single boolean field dynamic_properties
- It requires format version 1.26.20 and Experimental Upcoming Creator Features
- It cannot be used in permutations
When a block with a 'minecraft:block_entity` is placed in the world, an associated block-entity will be placed with the intent to provide persistent local metadata, akin to chests, spawners, signs, etc...
- While leaner than their Vanilla counterparts, they still are heavier on the RAM than non-block-entities; use them sparingly
Added the minecraft:instrument_sound block component behind the Upcoming Creator Features experiment
- it can be used to assign an instrument to "up" and "down" faces of a block and it's permutations
  - all current instruments can be used to define a sound
  - newly added "note.none" can be used to specify no sound for a face
  - if a face is not defined it will use its default value; "up": "note.harp" and "down": "note.none"
  - at least one face must be defined for the component to be valid Example:

{
    "format_version": "1.26.20",
    "minecraft:block": {
        "description": {
            "identifier": "test:test_block"
        },
        "components": {
            "minecraft:instrument_sound": {
                "up": "note.bit",
                        "down": "note.bell"
            }
        }
    }
}
