Update News
Minecraft Story Mode Coming to Switch
August 2, in the year of our Lord 2017 --
Today our team at Telltale Games, along with our friends at
Mojang, announced that episode two of Minecraft: Story Mode -
Season Two will premiere on August 15, 2017. The episode,
entitled 'Giant Consequences,' will be available for download on
Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, Mac, iOS, and Android-based
devices.
Jesse and the gang survived the Sea Temple, but they brought
home a little more than they bargained for: a lost adventurer, a
powerful device, and a colossal enemy capable of grinding
Beacontown to dust. There may be more to this fearsome foe than
meets the eye, but to find out, Jesse -- together with a few
trusty friends -- must embark on another adventure, this time
into the icy unknown...
Minecraft: Story Mode - Season 2 continues Jesse's saga in a
five-part series developed by Telltale in collaboration with
Mojang and members of the Minecraft community. This second
season includes 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.
Telltale also confirmed today that Minecraft: Story Mode - The
Complete Adventure will be available on Nintendo Switch starting
August 22, 2017 in North America and August 25 in Europe and
other regions. Available as both a digital download and a
physical cartridge at retail, 'The Complete Adventure' includes
all eight episodes from the first season of Minecraft: Story
Mode: five episodes from the original season pass, plus the
three bonus episodes from the 'Adventure Pass' add-on series.
In Minecraft: Story Mode, players embark on a perilous adventure
across the Overworld, through the Nether, to the End, and
beyond. While attempting to enter EnderCon and meet Gabriel the
Warrior, Jesse and friends discover that something is wrong...
something dreadful. Terror is unleashed, forcing Jesse to set
out on a quest to find The Order of the Stone in hopes of saving
the world from oblivion.
Minecraft: Story Mode - The Complete Adventure will be available
for US$39.99 or equivalent, and was rated 'Everyone 10+' for
Fantasy Violence and Mild Language by the ESRB. Both The
Complete Adventure and Minecraft: Story Mode - Season 2 are
standalone products separate from the core Minecraft game. A
retail version of Minecraft: Story Mode - Season Two will become
available on disc this fall.
