End Portals are an endgame mechanic in Minecraft that allows you to transport from the Overworld to The End. There are two different ways to access it, one for Survival Mode and Creative Mode. Building an end portal is relatively easy, but many players are confused about block placement. In this guide, we will cover how to create an end portal in creative mode and finish one in Survival.
How to Create an End Portal in Minecraft PE
The first thing you need to know is that no matter what mode you build the final portal in, you will need 12 Eye of Enders in your inventory. If you're in Creative, you can just grab them from your inventory. If you are in Survival, you can craft them by combining the following items:
- 1 x fire powder
- 1 x pearl Ender
Mode Creative
In Creative mode, you can create an end portal by placing the appropriate blocks in a specific orientation. The items you will need to create the frame are listed below.
- 12 x end gate frame
- 12 x Eye of Enders
Once you have them in your inventory, it's time to build the frame. This is usually where people get confused, as many players don't know that block placement isn't the only requirement. You should also have the blocks all facing inside the frame. Take a look below to see how they should be placed.
As you can see, the blocks are highlighted and cropped inside the frame. This is to help you see how to face inside each End Portal Frame block. The easiest way to achieve this is to follow the steps below.
When you're done creating the frame, you should see something like the image on the right in the sequence above. Now is the time to place the Eye of Enders.
Place an Eye of Ender in each end portal frame block. When you have placed all 12 it will form the final portal shown in the image to the right above.
Survival mode
The trickiest part of creating an end portal in Survival mode is simply finding the end portal. Once you find one, all you need to do is place an Eye of Ender in each end portal frame. After that, the interior of the final portal will turn into the starry square you see above. You can then jump through to get to the end!
