Minecraft:Bedrock
More actions
Template:For Template:Infobox block Bedrock is an indestructible block found in all three Minecraft:dimensions.
Obtaining
Bedrock can be obtained only from the Minecraft:Creative inventory, using Template:Control in Creative mode, or Minecraft:commands.
Breaking
Template:Relevant tutorial Bedrock can't be destroyed by breaking. Template:Breaking row Bedrock drops nothing when destroyed.
Natural generation
Bedrock comprises the five bottommost layers of the Minecraft:Overworld and Minecraft:the Nether in a rough pattern, although the top four layers are predominantly flat bedrock with only rare gaps, rendering the lowest, completely flat fifth layer (at Y=-64) mostly inaccessible. The distribution of bedrock is dependent on the Minecraft:world seed. Template:Only
In the Nether, bedrock additionally comprises the top five layers in a rough pattern. At the top of the Nether (Y=127), the layer is composed solely of bedrock, preventing the player from ascending above Y=127 without switching their gamemode to Creative or Spectator, or exploiting glitches. The patterns of bedrock are consistent in the Nether Template:In.
In Minecraft:the End, a single block of bedrock generates on top of each End spike, each topped with an End crystal. The bedrock remains after the destruction of the crystal and is lit on fire indefinitely. Bedrock additionally composes part of the exit portal at the center of the central island. Unlike in other dimensions, there is no bedrock floor at the bottom of the End, meaning it is possible to fall into the void without exploiting glitches.
An unlimited number of End gateways generate randomly across the outer End islands, each consisting of 12 blocks of bedrock and an End gateway block.
Post-generation
If the bedrock that makes up the exit portal is removed by any means, it regenerates when the ender dragon is defeated or re-summoned.
An End gateway is generated on the central End island upon the death of each ender dragon, which is mostly made of bedrock. A total of 20 of these gateways generate in a circle centered on the exit portal in set positions. A corresponding End gateway is generated in the inner edge of the outer islands after an End gateway on the central island is activated for the first time.
Usage
Bedrock generates at the bottom of the Minecraft:Overworld and Minecraft:the Nether to prevent entities from falling into the void in these dimensions.
The bedrock ceiling in the Nether prevents players from accessing the Nether roof, which is meant to be an empty out-of-bounds area.
Bedrock generates as part of End gateways, end spikes tops and End exit portals to prevent those parts of the structures from being broken.
Minecraft:Mobs do not spawn on bedrock. Endermen are unable to place the block they are holding onto bedrock.
Minecraft:Beacons treat bedrock as a transparent block, meaning their beams can pass through it, allowing beacons to be used in the Nether.
In the End, any Minecraft:fire on bedrock never extinguishes naturally, similar to Minecraft:netherrack, but does not spread.
Trapping the wither
Template:Main Since bedrock is indestructible in Survival, it can be used against Minecraft:withers. Certain configurations of bedrock (such as that found under the exit portal) can be used to securely trap withers by spawning them below the bedrock.Template:Only The wither can then be easily killed, utilized to break blocks automatically, or used to farm wither roses.
End crystal
Bedrock is one of the only two blocks on which End crystals can be placed, the other being Minecraft:obsidian. Placing four End crystals on bedrock around the exit portals triggers respawning the ender dragon.
Placing an End crystal on bedrock in the End sets it on fire.
Note blocks
Note blocks can be placed above bedrock to produce "bass drum" sounds.
Piston interactivity
Bedrock is unable to be pushed or pulled by either of the Minecraft:piston variants (regular or sticky).
Sulfur cube
Template:In development Sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb bedrock, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.

Trivia
- Outside of Minecraft, "Template:W" means any solid rock beneath the soil layer (i.e. anything below dirt, sand, gravel. etc.). Bedrock in real life is destructible, and its equivalent is more similar to the in-game stone layer than the actual bedrock layer.
- Strongholds and the End portal can override generated bedrock.
- The bedrock texture, in both the Default and Programmer Art resource packs, is a variant of the Minecraft:stone block with increased contrast.
- Vexes and the ender dragon can fly through bedrock. Additionally, the ender dragon cannot break bedrock.
