It has been a few months since Minecraft Dungeons had its May release, but over that time the game has seen numerous content updates. With Minecraft Dungeons having two expansion packs release over the year, dungeon crawling fanatics now know when the third major DLC update is going to launch.
Minecraft Dungeons‘ Howling Peaks DLC will be releasing on December 9 for all consoles simultaneously which includes the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC. The news comes from the official Minecraft website which also provides new details about future content.
Minecraft Dungeons‘ Howling Peaks DLC was announced back in October and promised a slew of new content for Minecraft‘s own answer to the Diablo formula. The website post provides some of the interesting tidbits of what players can expect in a whole new looting adventure. The core premise of the DLC is that players will be tasked with reaching the top of the mountain to face a considerable foe. Atop the frozen peak is the Tempest Golem which has faced corruption due to the Orb of Dominance.
As with the other DLC packs, Howling Peaks will introduce new content for the Minecraft spin-off. Much like Minecraft Dungeons first DLC pack Jungle Awakens and its follow up Creeping Winter, Howling Peaks will get new items in all major categories. The website notes that “dazzling” new armor, weapons, and artifacts will be introduced alongside new enemies to take down. The post only mentions the new Squall Golem and Mountaineer enemies, but there are definitely more ready to block the path to the top. Those not looking for a mountain adventure will still get six free enchantments which the website notes will “change the way you play the game.”
Alongside the release date and additional information on Howling Peaks, the post on the official Minecraft website also explained what is coming next for the title. Minecraft Dungeons will be getting four entirely new DLC packs coming to the game in the future. All of these will be available for purchase in one bundle which will be the Season Pass. Players who buy the Season Pass will get access to all future DLC content as well as the upcoming Howling Peaks. No price was announced for the Season Pass but it will be available alongside Howling Peaks come December 9. The post does confirm that the game will still get free content even without the season pass like Minecraft Dungeons‘ recent Cross-play update.
With Minecraft Dungeons sticking around for the foreseeable future, there are players wondering if the blocky loot hunter will be getting a next-gen upgrade. While Minecraft Dungeons will be playable on both Xbox Series consoles and PlayStation 5 due to backwards compatibility, fans are hoping the game will eventually get to utilize the considerable hardware boost as well.
Minecraft Dungeons is available now on PC, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One.
