Inventory

The inventory is the pop-up menu that the player uses to manage items they carry. From this screen a player can equip armor, craft items on a 2×2 grid, and equip tools, blocks, and items. The player's skin is also displayed here.

The inventory is opened and closed by pressing E ( on the Xbox 360 & Xbox One, / on the PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, on the Wii U & Nintendo Switch, and ••• on mobile devices). This key can be changed from the in-game options menu. The inventory can also be closed with Esc ( on the Xbox 360, Xbox One, Wii U, and Nintendo Switch, / on the PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, and × on mobile devices).

The inventory is saved upon exiting a world or server, so the player retains exactly the same items upon re-entering the world or server.
