To summon The Wither in Minecraft, you need to acquire four Soul Sand/Soil blocks and three Wither Skeleton Skulls. Both items can only be acquired in the Nether. Soul Sand and Soil is scattered randomly throughout the realm, but you can find biomes filled with the stuff. If you find a Nether Fortress, you can grab it underneath Netherwart gardens.

The Wither Skeleton Skulls are what will take the most time for you to acquire. Wither Skeletons appear in Nether Fortresses. When you find them, you need to defeat them for a minuscule chance at the item dropping. You can slightly increase it with the Looting enchantment put on your weapon, but it is still a less than 6% chance of dropping.

When fighting Wither Skeletons, be careful about them touching you. If they damage you, your health bar will go black and slowly drop until you die on top of any damage they deal to you. This is called the Withered effect. If you have a Bucket of Milk on you, you can eliminate the effect.

When you have the four Soul Sand/Soil blocks and three Wither Skeleton Skulls, you are ready to summon The Wither. Be sure you are ready for a fight because this will be challenging. Place your Soul blocks in a T and place the Skulls on top of them. Make sure they are all facing straight
