During Minecraft Live, Mojang announced its next drop: Chaos Cubed. While the drop doesn’t have a confirmed release date as of yet, we’re already excited for the chaotic potential it’s sure to unleash. Among the things coming to Minecraft in Chaos Cubed is the brand new Sulfur Cube, which sees its physics and properties change as it absorbs various materials, though how that might work remains a mystery for now. We’re taking the “Chaos” in Chaos Cubed pretty seriously, though.
Based on our first look, we’re imagining that feeding Sulfur Cubes wood will cause them to become sturdy, structural blocks, while perhaps sneaking them a slime ball will turn them into gelatinous, bouncy bundles of fun. While Mojang hasn’t gone into the specifics of the physics that can be affected, that hasn’t stopped us pondering the possibilities. You’ll be able to feed a Sulfur Cube manually, or it can choose to absorb a material of its own accord, as long as it’s in range.
The Sulfur Cube will be found in the new Sulfur Caves environments. These areas can spawn in many of the overworld’s biomes, meaning there should never be one too far away. Digging down should lead you to a cave with sulfur pools and new blocks to mine. Be careful though–sitting near these pools of water for too long will cause you to obtain the noxious effect, which we imagine will cause you damage over time.
