Dig a sealed 13 × 13 × 8 arena deep underground, far from base.

The Wither destroys everything around it. So you'll fight it somewhere nobody would ever look.

What you’ll build

Choose a spot far from home and dig a staircase deep underground to carve out a big sealed arena. Light every corner, build a panic bunker in one wall and a hidden escape tunnel, then give a family member the tour.

Finish line: Your sealed arena is lit deep underground, with a panic bunker and a secret escape tunnel.

Bonus challenge: Add a glass viewing window high on one wall, reached from the escape tunnel. Can you see the whole floor from it?

You’ll need

  • A diamond pickaxe
  • Stacks of torches
  • Food
  • A door
  • Spare blocks
  • A family member for the tour

You choose

  • My arena's name
  • Bunker lining: obsidian or deepslate
  • Where my secret escape tunnel comes out

Stuck?

  • Build far from your base, farms and villages. The Wither can break almost anything.
  • Seal every cave opening into the arena so nothing wanders in.
  • Light every corner. Deep caves are dark, and monsters spawn in darkness.
