Zombie pigmen or zombified piglins‌[upcoming: JE 1.16 & BE 1.16] are undead neutral mobs that mainly inhabit the Nether.

Spawning[edit]

Zombie pigmen can spawn in the Nether, from nether portals, or from pigs struck by lightning. They have a 5% chance of spawning as a baby zombie pigmen.

A baby zombie pigman has a 5% chance of spawning as a chicken jockey.‌[JE only]

All zombie pigmen spawn with a golden sword, which has a small chance of being enchanted in Normal or Hard modes: from 0 to 25%. This chance varies depending on the regional difficulty as the sword's enchantment is from 5 to 23 levels.

On Halloween (October 31), zombie pigmen have a 22.5% chance of spawning with a pumpkin or a 2.5% chance of spawning with a jack o'lantern equipped as headgear.‌[JE only]

Nether[edit]

Zombie pigmen spawn in groups of 4 in the Nether at light level 11 or lower. They can spawn only in Nether wastes and crimson forest biomes. [1]‌[upcoming: JE 1.16 & BE 1.16] They spawn more commonly in Nether wastes than in crimson forests.

Zombified piglins may spawn riding a strider in lava oceans. ‌[upcoming: JE 1.16]

Nether portals[edit]

When a nether portal block in the Overworld receives a block tick, there is a rare chance (1⁄2000 on Easy, 2⁄2000 on Normal, and 3⁄2000 on Hard) for it to spawn a zombie pigman.

In Java Edition, they appear inside one of the portal blocks on the bottom. In Bedrock Edition, they spawn one block to the east or south of the portal (depending on which direction the portal is facing) and neither half slabs nor lighting prevents this.

If a zombie pigman spawned in this way does not leave the portal it spawns on, there is a possibility of teleporting to the Nether.

Pigs[edit]

A zombie pigman spawns when lightning strikes within 4 blocks of a pig. If the player is riding the pig when lightning hits it, a zombie pigman appears on top of the player.

Even if the pig is a baby, the zombie pigman still spawns as an adult.‌[JE only][until JE 1.16]

Piglins[edit]

A piglin that enters the Overworld or the End transforms into a zombified piglin after 15 seconds. It also has a 5% chance of becoming a chicken jockey.‌[upcoming: JE 1.16 & BE 1.16]

Variants[edit]

Baby zombie pigmen and chicken jockeys[edit]

In Java Edition, there is a 5% chance for zombie pigman to spawn as babies, and baby zombie pigmen have a 5% chance to spawn as a chicken jockey.Or baby Piglins can turn into them while in the Overworld. A jockey moves at the baby zombie pigman speed instead of the chicken's speed.

Drops[edit]

See also: Tutorials/Zombie pigman farming

When killed, zombie pigmen drop:

  • 0–1 rotten flesh. The maximum amount is increased by 1 per level of Looting, for a maximum of 0-4 with Looting III.
  • 0–1 gold nuggets. The maximum amount is increased by 1 per level of Looting, for a maximum of 0-4 with Looting III.
  • 2.5% chance to drop a gold ingot if killed by a player or tamed wolf. The chance is increased by 1% per level of Looting, for a maximum of 5.5% with Looting III.
  • 8.5% chance to drop their golden sword if killed by a player or tamed wolf. The chance is increased by 1% per level of Looting, for a maximum of 11.5% with Looting III.
  • All items zombie pigmen have picked up after spawning are dropped upon death.
  • 5 and an additional 1–3 per naturally-spawned equipment. (12 if baby) if killed by a player or tamed wolf.

Deaths of hostile zombie pigmen always register as kills by the player they are targeting, regardless of whether that player ever touched that pigman.[2]‌[JE only]

The golden swords that are dropped have 26 to 33 of durability.

Pumpkins and jack o'lanterns[edit]

If a zombie pigman wearing a pumpkin or jack o'lantern is killed using a tool enchanted with Looting, there is a chance equivalent to the level of Looting used to drop the pumpkin or jack o'lantern, up to a maximum of a 3% chance at Looting III.

Behavior[edit]

Zombie pigmen move slowly. They are immune to both fire and lava damage. When provoked, their speed increases to the player's walking speed, or faster for babies.

Like zombies and husks, zombie pigmen bang on wooden doors and on Hard difficulty, they may break them.[3] Zombie pigmen do not attack villagers.

In Normal and Hard, up to 55% of zombie pigmen can pick up items, including weapons they feel are better than their golden sword, which they drop with the same chance as if killed with Looting I (9.5%).

Zombie pigmen try to destroy any turtle eggs they see within 23 blocks away, not counting the block they are standing in.

Being undead mobs, they are damaged by the status effect Instant Health and healed by the status effect Instant Damage. They are unaffected by the status effects Regeneration and Poison. They are ignored by the wither and affected by Smite.

They are not immune to fire and lava, even though they do not catch fire under sunlight.‌[BE only]‌[upcoming: BE 1.16]

Hostility[edit]

Zombie pigmen are not initially hostile, but all zombie pigmen within a 67×67×21 to 111×111×21 area centered on the attacked zombie pigman become aggressive and converge on the player (all of the players if the player is in multiplayer mode) if any individual is attacked, unless the zombie pigman attacked is killed in one hit.‌[JE only] In addition, some zombie pigmen have the ability to spawn reinforcements when attacked (similar to zombies and which can rarely include actual zombies). This applies to any hit registered as coming from the player or other mobs, including deflected ghast fireballs, from sweep attacks, snowballs/eggs, or a skeleton arrow. This does not include fireworks shot from crossbows, or dispenser-shot arrows.

Zombie pigmen remain hostile from 20 seconds to 27 minutes[4] (limited by the Anger NBT tag type). Approaching within 35 blocks of an already hostile zombie pigman causes it to sound an alarm call, angering other zombie pigmen in a 40-block radius. The forgiveness timer does not advance for zombie pigmen in unloaded chunks. Therefore, if the player enters a Nether portal and returns, any provoked zombie pigmen in the area remain aggressive unless another player was nearby to keep the chunks loaded. Dying does not cause zombie pigmen to become neutral toward the player. They pursue a player even if they have the Invisibility effect.

Neutral zombie pigmen do not prevent a player from sleeping.‌[JE only]

If a mob attacks a zombie pigman, they all become aggressive toward that mob, and when the mob is killed they remain aggressive for several seconds and attack any nearby player without provocation.‌[JE only]

Data values[edit]

See also: Chunk format

Zombified piglins have entity data associated with them that contain various properties of the mob.

  • Entity data
    • Tags common to all entities see Template:Nbt inherit/entity/template
    • Tags common to all mobs see Template:Nbt inherit/mob/template
    •  IsBaby: 1 or 0 (true/false) - true if this zombie is a baby. May be absent.
    •  CanBreakDoors: 1 or 0 (true/false) - true if the zombie can break doors (default value is 0).
    •  DrownedConversionTime: The number of ticks until this zombie converts to a drowned, or husk to zombie. (default value is -1, when no conversion is under way).
    •  InWaterTime: The number of ticks this zombie or husk has been under water, used to start the drowning conversion. (default value is -1, when no conversion is under way).
    •  Anger: Ticks until the zombie pigman becomes neutral. -32,768 to 0 for neutral zombie pigmen; 1 to 32,767 for angry zombie pigmen. Value depletes by one every tick if value is greater than 0. When the value turns from 1 to 0, the zombie pigman does not stop tracking the player until the player has exited the zombie pigman's detection radius. When hit by a player or when another zombie pigman within 32 blocks is hit by a player, the value is set to a random number between 400 and 800.
    •  HurtBy[until JE 1.16]: The UUID of the last player that attacked the zombie pigman.
    •  HurtBy‌[upcoming: JE 1.16]: The UUID of the last player that attacked the zombie pigman, stored as four ints.

Issues[edit]

Issues relating to "Zombie Pigman" are maintained on the bug tracker. Report issues there.

Trivia[edit]

  • The pre-Texture Update zombie pigman skin file has "THX XAPHOBIA" written on the unused section as a credit by Notch to the skin's original creator, XaPhobia.
  • The zombie pigman is the only mob to have a "baby" variant that's texture is significantly different than its adult counterpart, with baby zombie pigmen missing the outer layer of their head and showing their skull. It instead appears inside of its head, which is a bug.[9]
    • This is actually the same case with baby zombies and their variants, which is visible only via Texture Packs.
  • The zombie pigman's angry sound is played twice the speed of the original sound file in the game.‌[Java Edition only]
