Identification of efficient cathode materials represents a huge challenge for development of reversible Mg‐ion batteries (MIBs). Herein, we report on the preparation of copper molybdenum sulfide (Cu 2 MoS 4 ) in a novel microstructure, namely nanotube with the square‐cross‐section, and its use as a cathode material for Mg‐ion battery. The Cu 2 MoS 4 nanotube was prepared via a one‐pot hydrothermal method using Cu 2 O nanocubes as a sacrificial template. The Cu 2 MoS 4 nanotube belongs to the top‐tier MIBs cathode materials that shows a remarkable specific capacity of 390.5 mAh g −1 .
