Minecraft Dungeons has already been announced to have two DLC packs, an Island Realms map and additional free downloadable content. Learn everything we know so far about Minecraft Dungeons DLC and when it will be released.

Island Realms and Release Date

When players opened their brand new copy of Minecraft Dungeons and tried exploring around the map with their cursor, they noticed something intriguing – an inaccessible area labeled Island Realms with a Coming Soon note.

When interacting with the Island Realms icon, a note appears which reads, “The portal is currently closed. The islands map and two brand new adventures will be available for purchase soon”.

On the release of Jungle Awakens, the locked portal has finally opened, bringing you to a whole new map with 2 Islands! One island is where the Jungle Awakens takes place and the other island is where Creeping Winter will be played.

Jungle Awakens and Creeping Winter DLC and Release Date

Two DLC packs known as the Jungle Awakens and Creeping Winter expansions were announced for Minecraft Dungeons on May 29, 2020. Jungle Awakens will be available in July 1, 2020, with Creeping Winter coming later in the year.
