Chaos Cubed revealed
Mojang officially revealed the next big expansion, “Chaos Cubed,” as a 2026 update promising fresh biomes, new mobs and gameplay mechanics — it’s slated for later this year after Minecraft Live. (ign.com) (beebom.com).
Chaos Cubed was teased on the Minecraft Live broadcast held March 21, 2026, where Mojang positioned it as the second major “game drop” of the year after Tiny Takeover. (ign.com) Community trackers and the Minecraft wiki list the drop as Java Edition 26.2 and Bedrock Edition 26.30 and peg an expected release window in mid‑to‑late June 2026, though no firm date has been published by Mojang. (minecraft.wiki) (beebom.com) The update’s headline locale is the Sulfur Caves biome, introduced alongside new blocks including sulfur and cinnabar that were shown in concept footage during the event. (pcgamesn.com) (beebom.com) Mojang demonstrated a new enemy called the Sulfur Cube that can absorb and carry blocks, a mechanic described onstage as shape‑changing and central to the “chaos” theme for environmental interactions. (pcgamesn.com) (dexerto.com) Tiny Takeover, the March 24, 2026 26.1 drop, will arrive first and was explicitly framed as the prelude to Chaos Cubed during the livestream; Mojang said Tiny Takeover launches next week from the broadcast date. (minecraft.wiki) (ign.com) Mojang has not released Chaos Cubed snapshots yet and told viewers more feature deep dives and testing builds will come in the months between Tiny Takeover’s March 24 launch and the expected summer release.
