Minecraft Dungeons II Launches and Turns Mojang's Dungeon Crawler Into a Proper Connected Adventure — original editorial gaming news illustration

Minecraft Dungeons II launches today on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, with Xbox and PC players also getting it through Game Pass. Mojang's sequel is considerably more ambitious than simply adding another pile of enchanted swords to the 2020 original. The old mission-select structure has been replaced by a connected world, letting players travel between regions, discover pathways and dive into mysterious rifts while building characters through increasingly elaborate loot. The story revolves around an Illager High Council whose activities are throwing the ecosystem out of balance, which is what apparently happens when Minecraft villains discover middle management. More importantly, Dungeons II provides the first playable visit to The Sift, the strange soul-filled dimension revealed during Minecraft Live. The Sift will eventually become Minecraft's first entirely new dimension in roughly fifteen years when it reaches the main Java and Bedrock games in 2027. That makes Dungeons II unusually relevant beyond being another spin-off: Mojang is using it as the advance party for ideas that will later enter Minecraft itself. Local and online co-op return, and yes, characters can finally jump. Civilization progresses.
