How to Enter the Command

1. Open the Chat Window

The easiest way to run a command in Minecraft is within the chat window. The game control to open the chat window depends on the version of Minecraft:

  • For Pocket Edition (PE), tap on the chat button help command at the top of the screen.
  • For Xbox One, press the D-Pad (right) xbox one on the controller.
  • For PS4, press the D-Pad (right) ps4 on the controller.
  • For Nintendo Switch, press the right arrow button nintendo switch on the controller.
  • For Windows 10 Edition, press the T key to open the chat window.
  • For Education Edition, press the T key to open the chat window.

2. Type the Command

We will cover examples of how to use the /titleraw command to display a title and display a subtitle.

Display a Title

In this example, we will display a title screen to the player called DigMinecraft that says "The First Battle" with the following command:

/titleraw DigMinecraft title {"rawtext":[{"text":"The First Battle"}]}

Type the command in the chat window. As you are typing, you will see the command appear in the lower left corner of the game window. Press the Enter key to run the command.

Once the cheat has been entered, the title screen will appear on the player's screen.

You will see the message "commands.titleraw.success" appear in the top left corner of the game window to indicate that the title screen has been successfully displayed.

Add a Subtitle

To add a subtitle, you must first run the command to add the subtitle text and then run a second command that displays the title screen. So if we wanted to display a title screen to the player called DigMinecraft that has a title "The First Battle" with a subtitle (next line down) of "Run for your Life!", you would need to run two /titleraw commands.

First, set the subtitle text with the following command:

/titleraw DigMinecraft subtitle {"rawtext":[{"text":"Run for your Life!"}]}

Then run the next command to display the title screen to the player:

/titleraw DigMinecraft title {"rawtext":[{"text":"The First Battle"}]}

Once the cheat has been entered, the title screen (with title and subtitle) will appear on the player's screen.

You will see two messages "commands.titleraw.success" appear in the top left corner of the game window to indicate that the title screen (with subtitle) has been successfully displayed.
