Minecraft Story Mode Season 2 Announced
SAN RAFAEL, Calif., and STOCKHOLM, Sweden, June 7th,
in the year of our Lord 2017 -- Telltale Games and
world-renowned game developer Mojang today announced that
Minecraft: Story Mode - Season 2 is in development and set to
premiere with Episode 1: Hero in Residence for download starting
July 11, 2017 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, Mac, iOS, and
Android-based devices.
Minecraft: Story Mode - Season 2 continues Jesse's saga in a
five-part, narrative-driven, episodic game series developed by
Telltale in collaboration with Mojang and members of the
Minecraft community. Though players' choices from the first
season will carry over into season two, this new season will be
accessible to both returning fans and newcomers alike. This
second season will also include Telltale's unique multiplayer
'Crowd Play' feature, which allows friends and family to engage
with the adventure together by helping to decide the direction
of the story from any mobile device with an online connection.
Now that Jesse and the gang have vanquished the Wither Storm,
saved the world, and become totally super famous heroes, life
has gotten a bit more...complicated. With more responsibilities
and less time for adventure, old friendships have started to
fade -- at least until Jesse's hand gets stuck in a creepy
gauntlet that belongs to an ancient underwater temple. Together
with old pals and new comrades alike, Jesse embarks on a brand
new journey filled with tough choices, good times, and at least
one temperamental llama.
This season will feature voice work from Patton Oswalt,
Catherine Taber, Ashley Johnson, and Scott Porter, as well as
cameos from Stampy Cat, stacyplays, and other personalities from
the Minecraft community on YouTube. Additional casting details
for the season are yet to be announced.
Minecraft: Story Mode - Season 2 will be a standalone product
separate from both the core Minecraft game and season one of
Minecraft: Story Mode. Season two will be available for download
on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, Mac, iOS, and Android-based
devices. A retail version on disc will become available this
fall. The series is currently in development and has not yet
been rated by the ESRB.
