Minecraft Dungeons 2 release date confirmed

Microsoft announced during Sunday's Xbox Games Shows that Minecraft Dungeons 2 will arrive Sept. 29 on Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Windows PC and Xbox Series X. Like its direct predecessor, the latest from Mojang Studios will be another isometric dungeon crawler.

“A new threat stirs, ready to descend upon the land and its inhabitants to cause unspeakable mayhem,” the game’s official website reads. “Become a hero and take on foes unlike anything you’ve faced before, journey through long‑forgotten locations, and clash with the forces of evil once more!” The original Minecraft Dungeons was released in 2020 to solid critical reception.

While it was described as a great introduction to Diablo-style looting, some viewed its streamlined approach as a bit too simplified. Dungeons was played by over 25 million players as of 2023. Dungeons also received extensive updates, including additional endgame content and new biomes.
