Big

This article documents an April Fools' joke.

This feature was exclusively part of a joke version and is not currently planned for addition to regular Minecraft.
It is documented here on the wiki due to being officially-released content by Mojang Studios, even if not present in a final version.

This feature is exclusive to Java Edition.

This article is a work in progress.

Please help in the expansion or creation of this article by expanding or improving it. The talk page may contain suggestions.

Big is an effect that makes entities bigger. Big I makes the entity bigger by 1.5x, while Big II makes it 2x bigger (confirmation needed).
