Hey CubeCrafters!
Today, we're excited to be bringing you a HUGE BlockWars Update, for both networks, and for both Bridges & Capture the Flag! Take a look!
NEW MODE - Overpowered!
For both gamemodes on BlockWars, we've released a NEW Overpowered mode! Full of gamemode specific powerups, buffed armour and a whole lot of chaos - take a look!
- Explosive Trap
Watch where you step, you may walk into an explosive trap! This will let off a huge explosion, dealing damage and breaking blocks to everyone around it! Run away when you hear the ticks!
- Automatic Bow
Shoot a bunch of arrows at an extremely high speed! You wouldn't want to stand in between a man and his auto bow...
- Flame Bow
Those arrows look lit!
- Leap Feather
Fall off the map? Fly away in style with these leap feathers!
- Knockback
Grants you knockback two on your weapon for 10 hits! Use them wisely!
- Temporary Obsidian
Changes your blocks from terracotta to obsidian temporarily. Spam click those blocks!
- Invisibility
Go completely invisible for a short period of time - beware though, if you get hit, you will become visible!
- Exploding Chickens
Ah, those are some cute chickens...and they deleted every single block in the game. Nice.
- Freezerator
A powerful stick, that traps your opponents in an ice cage!
There is also a Totem of Undying that you can obtain for when you get into a sticky situation!
All of your items have received a buff as well! Get ready to fight in protection four armour, sharpness two swords & high-efficiency tools in this mode!
Powerups also spawn a lot faster, giving you the opportunity to mess around with the new powerups in this mode!
On Bedrock, we've made a bunch of custom models for each of the powerups! Take a look!
All of this can be unlocked by simply opening the voting menu, and voting for Overpowered!
New Maps!
We're super excited to be releasing two new maps for BlockWars - one for CTF and one for Bridges! We're interested to get some feedback about our CTF map.
- Bridges - Treasure
Beware of the pirates...arrrrr!
- CTF - Beach
Ideal to chill out in!
This is the first map in CubeCraft that uses custom jump pads! We want to experiment with different non-vanilla mechanics like these in the future, for games outside of BlockWars!
Let us know if you like these, and you may see them more in the future!
Quality of Life Features
Finally, we've added a whole bunch of awesome quality of life features to help with the normal BlockWars games!
That's all for this update! Thanks everyone for reading, hope you enjoy & stay safe!

Quality of Life FeaturesFinally, we've added a whole bunch of awesome quality of life features to help with the normal BlockWars games!
- On Bedrock Capture the Flag, we've added Flag Mounting! This means that when you capture the flag, the opponent's flag will be put on your head! This will make it more obvious who has the flag, who to chase down and get the flag back!
- On Java Bridges, we've added Kit Modification! When you right-click on the redstone dust in your inventory, it'll bring up your inventory layout. You can change this inventory to whatever you want - whenever you die, your inventory will default to this!
- We're looking to implement this into Bedrock too - we just need to ensure the menu is as intuitive as possible for all our players to enjoy!
- All BlockWars icons have been given a revamp - with new icons that are now in line with our Store Revamp!
- During this update, we've also done a whole bunch of bug fixes!
That's all for this update! Thanks everyone for reading, hope you enjoy & stay safe!
