The chest is a crafted block that can contain items.

Obtaining

Chests can be obtained by crafting, or by breaking previously-placed chests or generated chests.

Breaking

A chest can be broken using anything, but an axe is the fastest. Breaking a chest will drop the chest and all the items it contains onto the block below where the chest was previously located.

Crafting

Wooden Planks Wooden Planks Wooden Planks Wooden Planks Invisible-sprite Wooden Planks Wooden Planks Wooden Planks Wooden Planks Chest

Natural Generation

Chests naturally generate as a bonus chest and loot chests.

The bonus chest generates near the world spawnpoint if the option is toggled on. It contains the items listed below.

Loot chests generate in dungeons, skyholds, and ruins. The list of items they can contain is on the loot chests page.

Bonus Chest

Bonus chest is a regular chest that is spawned in the overworld containing a small set of randomized starting materials.

It can be enabled or disabled when creating a new world.

The chest generates based on the world's seed number. Up to 8 slots can be filled with starting materials, which is randomly chosen from the list below:

Usage

Chests can be moved using pistons and sticky pistons.

Container

A chest is a useful block to store and sort excess blocks and items, preventing loss of items on death as they will not be in the player's inventory.

The chest has 27 storage slots, each of which can contain a stack of the same block or item (this is limited by the certain item, e.g. dirt can stack up to 64 but a bucket only up to 1).
