Minecraft Dungeons 2 is officially on the way. The game will release later this year for PC, PS5, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2 and of course, Xbox Series X/S consoles. The new Minecraft Diablo-like will put players on an adventure to take out a new, dangerous enemy force.

Over its first three years, it managed to garner 25 million players, a drop in the ocean compared to actual Minecraft, but still a highly respectable number in today's competitive videogame market.

There is no exact release date yet, but the game will be out later this year. As you would expect from a first-party Microsoft game, it will be available on Game Pass, although you'll likely need the highest-tier Game Pass Ultimate subscription to play it on day-one.
