Mojang has a lot more content on the way for Minecraft Dungeons, starting with the Howling Peaks DLC. The central theme of this paid DLC is stormy winds and it will introduce new loot to grind for. But that’s not all – there will also be a free update which adds a new difficulty setting. Check out the dev diary below.

The new difficulty setting is Apocalypse Plus and it adds 20 new Threat Levels for players to deal with. In terms of difficulty, there’s quite a bit of tweaking to be done but it should provide some challenge for end-game players. As for the Howling Peaks DLC, it brings three new story missions in a new mountain setting to complete.

Other features coming up include a new mob and cross-platform play, the latter which is launching in November. The Howling Peaks DLC is out in December and there’s even more content to come in 2021. Stay tuned for more details in the meantime.
