BundleBy Luis Joshua GutierrezSamuel HeaneyDan Hammill+39.9k morePosted: Jun 29, 2022 4:44am UTC

Minecraft's Bundles are an incredibly useful tool that make it possible to expand the number of slots in your Inventory, and can also act as "folders" to help better organize your Inventory. They cannot expand the total capacity of your Inventory, but they are able to mix together stackable items within a single Inventory Slot, which can free up room elsewhere for less stackable items.

Currently, Bundles are an experimental feature, and as of Update 1.19 they have yet to be added to the game. They can be played in an Experimental Branch of the Java Edition, and are not available in any Bedrock Edition.

How Minecraft Bundles Work

Bundles are a little unintuitive regarding how much they can hold, so here's a breakdown:

  • Every Inventory Slot has a capacity for how much of an item they can hold as a stack. For example, Dirt Blocks stack to 64, Signs can only stack to 16, and a Sword can only stack 1.
  • What Bundles allow you to do is mix different stackable items within a single Inventory slot. Think of each Inventory Slot as a cup, and stackable items as colored marbles: Bundles let you keep marbles of different colors in the cup, whereas Inventory Slots force you to keep them in separate cups.
  • Bundles are very good at storing stackable items that may not be that common. For example, you can hold stacks of some of your rarer finds like Gold Ore and Diamonds while exploring caves, since you're unlikely to hold 64 of them on you. This will help free up Inventory Slots elsewhere for things like Pickaxes, Armor and Potions.
  • Bundles are not a good solution for Weapons, Armor, Buckets, Potions and durable tools like Shovels. This is because they can't stack, so a Bundle can only ever hold one of them.
  • Bundles can technically store other Bundles inside them, however this is only useful for empty Bundles. To explain, let's say that Bundle A is holding Bundle B inside it: anything you store inside Bundle B will be recognized by Bundle A, effectively filling both.
  • We must stress that Bundles do not increase your effective Inventory capacity!

Recipe

Bundles require the following items in order to craft:

  • 6 Rabbit Hides
  • 2 Strings

On a crafting Table, the Rabbit Hides need to be placed in a U formation on the bottom of the grid, with the last one placed in the upper-middle Slot. the remaining corner slots should be filled with the String, leaving an empty space in the middle slot.
