Minecraft Dungeons Ultimate Edition (Nintendo Switch)

Product Information

Much like the original game, more players = more fun. Dungeons even offers Couch Co-Op; a nice touch when the majority of games are moving toward online play exclusively. Environments are incredibly detailed and well-done (even more so than the main game), and the new additions are welcomed for returning players. Hopefully, Mojang Studios can keep the ball rolling with future expansions and update because Jungle Awakens is a great (but short) start. Minecraft Dungeons is much more story driven than its predecessor. That’s not to say it has a hugely in-depth plot running through it, but there is at least a storyline tying everything together. Isle of Man, Isle of Wight, Northern Ireland and the Scottish Highlands) may take longer to reach you.

Howling Peaks DLC: A strange power has corrupted the once lonely peaks of a distant mountain range, and now it threatens to take the world by storm. The trek to the top features dramatic highs and lows, from dazzling new armour, weapons, and artifacts to vicious new foes among the cliffs. New enemies such as the Squall Golem and Mountaineer wait at the summit for anyone brave enough to steal the root of their power. Atop it all is the source of the stormy conflict, the Tempest Golem, which must be defeated before all hope is blown away.

The story is simple and exists only to tie together the dungeon-crawling levels. The main villain, the Arch Illager, stole an Orb of Power from the other Illagers and uses it for generic evil. You spend next six to eight hours chasing him down and defeating his minions until finally you face him in his castle. That's pretty much it – don’t expect the kind of swing-for-the-fences attempt at storytelling that Telltale went for with its Minecraft: Story Mode spin-off adventure. Good Family Fun For example, the emeralds that you get from salvaging gear, killing enemies and finding treasure can only be spent on either a randomized pull of any potential weapon or armour piece appropriate for your level or on an equally random pull for any artefact. Most of the things you get from these random pulls are worse than the stuff you already have, which can make engaging with this economy an exercise in futility. The more you play it, the more it becomes evident that Minecraft Dungeons needs something more to make the grinding worth your time – whether that be more useful loot drops, deeper progression systems, or greater means of utilizing the in-game economy. The list of mobs in Minecraft Dungeons is far too long to include here and is only growing over time.

Armor. Your armor is how you upgrade your health and defense, so it's essential. Just like with your weapons, there are a ton of varieties with varying abilities and perks. I’m sure there are other games that are a better fit for a comparison, but hopefully that gives you an idea of what lies in store. It’s still recognisable as a Minecraft game, but it’s also very clear there is a different gameplay style here. …But it Plays Very Differently Personally I'm really enjoying it, and my mate is too. We're both playing it with our kids though, so neither of us were expecting something as complex as Diablo. Melee. This is your melee weapon, of which there are many, many kinds, from swords to axes to glaives to even just gauntlets. Each weapon has its strengths and weaknesses.Whilst we will do everything we can to meet the delivery times above, there may be factors outside of our control and we cannot guarantee delivery within this time frame. There are still two more expansions that have yet to be properly announced for Minecraft Dungeons' Season Pass. Still, if they're at least as big as Howling Peaks in scale, then the Season Pass will be an incredible value addition for Minecraft Dungeons and save you a pretty penny over buying the expansions separately. If you've already played Minecraft Dungeons and love what the game has to offer, the Season Pass is definitely worth your consideration.
