Frequently asked questions

How do I summon a Zombie Pigman in Minecraft?
Enable cheats or use OP, open chat with T or /, paste /summon minecraft:zombified_piglin ~ ~ ~ (Java) or /summon zombified_piglin ~ ~ ~ (Bedrock), and press Enter. The Zombie Pigman spawns at your feet.
Does the summon Zombie Pigman command work on Bedrock Edition?
Yes — use /summon zombified_piglin ~ ~ ~. Bedrock uses the same entity IDs without the "minecraft:" prefix and does not support NBT arguments like custom names in the summon command.
Why does my summoned Zombie Pigman despawn?
Mobs despawn when no players are nearby. On Java Edition, add {PersistenceRequired:1b} to the summon command to prevent it. On Bedrock, use a name tag on the mob after summoning.
