Summon Ghast Fireball

Spawn an explosive fireball projectile

✅ Verified for Java 26.2 · Bedrock 26.32 — checked June 2026

Summons a ghast fireball with ExplosionPower:2 for a bigger blast on impact. Without a direction it tends to drift, so aim it by facing where you want it before summoning. Higher ExplosionPower values make larger craters, so test on disposable terrain.

/summon fireball ~ ~2 ~ {ExplosionPower:2}

How to use

  1. Open chat (T on Java).
  2. Paste the command and press Enter.
  3. A fireball spawns above you and flies forward.
