/summon minecraft:magma_cube ~ ~ ~Frequently asked questions
- How do I summon a Magma Cube in Minecraft?
- Enable cheats or use OP, open chat with T or /, paste /summon minecraft:magma_cube ~ ~ ~ (Java) or /summon magma_cube ~ ~ ~ (Bedrock), and press Enter. The Magma Cube spawns at your feet.
- Does the summon Magma Cube command work on Bedrock Edition?
- Yes — use /summon magma_cube ~ ~ ~. Bedrock uses the same entity IDs without the "minecraft:" prefix and does not support NBT arguments like custom names in the summon command.
- Why does my summoned Magma Cube despawn?
- Mobs despawn when no players are nearby. On Java Edition, add {PersistenceRequired:1b} to the summon command to prevent it. On Bedrock, use a name tag on the mob after summoning.
