During Minecraft Live today, Mojang announced Minecraft Dungeons II. The sequel to 2020’s dungeon-crawler is set for release this fall, and people can start wishlisting the game today.
Back in May 2025, it was reported that a sequel to Minecraft Dungeons was in the works, and has been for several years, so the announcement today was not a total surprise.
Minecraft Dungeons is a Minecraft-flavored take on ARPGs like Diablo, and the game was released across Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and PC. The game also got an expansion and an ultimate edition. GameSpot’s Minecraft Dungeons review scored the game a 7/10. “It scratches the dungeon-crawler itch with a sense of goofy charm and expands what Minecraft can be,” reviewer Steve Watts said.
Also during Minecraft Live, Mojang announced Minecraft’s next drop, Chaos Cubed, and it might be the game’s most chaotic yet.
Microsoft bought the Minecraft series and developer Mojang for $2.5 billion. Microsoft has not, and doesn’t plan to, release Minecraft 2, but the company expanded the Minecraft series with Minecraft Dungeons in 2020 and Minecraft Legends in 2023, on top of updates and improvements to the main Minecraft game.
Outside of games, the hugely popular A Minecraft Movie was released in 2025. A sequel, featuring Kirsten Dunst as Alex, is coming in 2027.
