Toot the hype horns! Play a tune on the anticipation accordion! Collect yourself and read every word in this article! There’s a windy announcement to be shared, and it’s all about Cloudy Climb.
Not the type of cloudy climb that is my getting-out-of-bed-half-asleep-every-morning challenge, but Minecraft Dungeons’ first Seasonal Adventure. At Minecraft Live, we shared some information about what is to come, and today, we’re excited to announce that this free update will launch on December 14. Yay!
There’s plenty of reason to be excited! Cloudy Climb will introduce new, free content that includes an all-new progression system, weekly challenges, and a looming tower that–whether you like it or not –loves to rearrange itself whenever it gets an opportunity. Typical procedurally generated tower behavior, but also the perfect place to test your skills and to acquire Adventure Points!
Adventure Points allow you unlock seasonal rewards such as adorable pets, dazzling capes, colorful flairs, and entertaining emotes that offer new ways of communicating with your fellow players. I for one plan to be the cringiest member of my party and dab emote to my heart’s content. If it’s there, why not use it?
And for those of you who simply can’t get enough of these rewards, there’s a second, premium reward track with additional goodies, which can be unlocked by purchasing the Adventure Pass. These rewards have no impact on gameplay, but boy do they look shiny! Er, well, unless you plan on using the Ender skin.
For more juicy information, sneak peaks, and fancy photos of our upcoming content, head over to the Minecraft Dungeons website. See you in December when the adventure continues!
