Summon Multiple Mobs at Once

Spawn many mobs (like 100 zombies) with one setup. Run: /execute at @p run summon zombie ~ ~ ~. Vanilla /summon spawns one mob per run, so the trick for crowds is a repeating command block: it re-runs this command every game tick (20×/second), pouring out mobs until you turn it off. Five seconds ≈ 100 zombies. Swap zombie for any mob ID. Works on Java 26.2 and Bedrock 26.32. Last verified June 2026.

How to use

Get a command block: /give @p command_block (remove the leading slash inside command blocks).

Mobs spawn continuously — set the block back to Impulse or break it to stop.
