Magma Block is a block that generates naturally in the Nether dimension. It appears as a dark block with animated, flowing magma texture on its surface. When a player or any entity comes into contact with a Magma Block, they take damage over time, making it hazardous to stand on. Wearing Frost Walker-enchanted boots can convert Magma Blocks into temporary, safe paths across bodies of water.
Magma Blocks also have other properties. They emit a dim light level, contributing to the ambient lighting in the Nether. Additionally, when placed underwater, Magma Blocks create bubble columns that pull entities down towards them. Conversely, if a Soul Sand block is placed under water, it creates upward bubble columns.
