Feed one almost any full block and it absorbs it, taking on an archetype that changes how it behaves. Wood makes it bouncy, ice makes it slide, wool makes it float, magma makes it hot, and TNT makes it explosive. The explosive archetype is the one that turns a harmless cube into a rolling bomb.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"find\" style=\"font-size: 25px; line-height: 1.3; color: #111827; margin: 34px 0 12px; font-weight: 800; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\">Find sulfur cubes first<\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 16px;\">You cannot make an explosive cube without a sulfur cube to start with, and they only live in one place.<\/p>\n<div style=\"overflow-x: auto; margin: 18px 0;\">\n<table style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"background: #6d28d9; color: #ffffff; text-align: left; padding: 11px 13px; border: 1px solid #5b21b6; font-size: 15px;\">Detail<\/th>\n<th style=\"background: #6d28d9; color: #ffffff; text-align: left; padding: 11px 13px; border: 1px solid #5b21b6; font-size: 15px;\">Info<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding: 10px 13px; border: 1px solid #e5e7eb; background: #ffffff; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: top;\">Biome<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 10px 13px; border: 1px solid #e5e7eb; background: #ffffff; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: top;\">Sulfur Caves, a new underground biome.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding: 10px 13px; border: 1px solid #e5e7eb; background: #f5f3ff; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: top;\">How to find it<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 10px 13px; border: 1px solid #e5e7eb; background: #f5f3ff; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: top;\">Dig down beneath a bubbling sulfur spring on the surface, or run \/locate biome minecraft:sulfur_caves.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding: 10px 13px; border: 1px solid #e5e7eb; background: #ffffff; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: top;\">Light level<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 10px 13px; border: 1px solid #e5e7eb; background: #ffffff; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: top;\">They spawn at light level 0.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding: 10px 13px; border: 1px solid #e5e7eb; background: #f5f3ff; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: top;\">Group size<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 10px 13px; border: 1px solid #e5e7eb; background: #f5f3ff; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: top;\">In groups of two to four.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding: 10px 13px; border: 1px solid #e5e7eb; background: #ffffff; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: top;\">Sizes<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 10px 13px; border: 1px solid #e5e7eb; background: #ffffff; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: top;\">Large cubes can absorb a full block; small cubes must grow first.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: #fffbeb; border: 1px solid #fde68a; border-radius: 10px; padding: 14px 16px; margin: 18px 0; font-size: 15px; color: #92400e; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\">Sulfur springs release bubbles and gases that apply the Nausea effect to nearby players and mobs, so expect a queasy screen while you search.<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"make\" style=\"font-size: 25px; line-height: 1.3; color: #111827; margin: 34px 0 12px; font-weight: 800; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\">How to make an explosive sulfur cube<\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 16px;\">Only a large sulfur cube can absorb a block.

You can bucket a large cube to carry it somewhere safe before priming, since a Bucket of Sulfur Cube preserves the absorbed block. Just remember to transport it before you light the fuse, because an ignited cube cannot be picked back up.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 16px;\">If you are jumping between several new games this season, a stable connection helps; see why we rate <a style=\"color: #6d28d9; font-weight: 600;\" href=\"https:\/\/seminarsonly.com\/news\/why-surfshark-vpn-is-our-top-choice-for-gaming\/\">Surfshark for gaming<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"faq\" style=\"font-size: 25px; line-height: 1.3; color: #111827; margin: 34px 0 12px; font-weight: 800; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n<div style=\"border: 1px solid #e5e7eb; border-radius: 10px; padding: 14px 16px; margin: 12px 0; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 6px; font-weight: bold; font-size: 17px; color: #111827;\">How do you make an explosive sulfur cube in Minecraft?<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 16px; color: #374151;\">Find a large sulfur cube in the Sulfur Caves biome, then place or drop a TNT block next to it.
