In the latest Wild Update of Minecraft, a new block called Mud was introduced. Unlike regular blocks, walking on mud causes a slight sinking effect without the slowdown experienced on soul sand. If you’re eager to add mud to your inventory, this guide will show you the simple steps, whether you prefer digging it up or using commands.
How to Get Mud in Survival Mode
To acquire mud in Survival mode, follow these steps:
1. Find Mud:
Mud is commonly found in the Mangrove Swamp biome. Explore your Minecraft world until you locate this biome, and you’ll likely encounter blocks of mud.
2. Hold a Tool:
While mud can be dug up with your bare hands, it’s more efficient to use a tool like a shovel. For this example, let’s use a diamond shovel due to its higher durability.
3. Mine the Mud:
Approach the block of mud and, using the shovel, mine it. The controls vary depending on your Minecraft version:
- Java Edition (PC/Mac): Left-click and hold on the mud.
- Pocket Edition (PE): Tap and hold on the mud.
- Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch, Windows 10 Edition: Follow the specific controller instructions. Continue mining until the block breaks, revealing a smaller block of mud floating on the ground.
4. Pick up the Mud:
Swiftly pick up the mud before it disappears. Once collected, it will appear in your hotbar, ready to be used.
