Minecraft fans got a small window into the future of the franchise during today’s MineCon Live livestream, and the development team at Mojang dug deep to deliver the first look at the Opening Cinematic from next year’s Minecraft Dungeons. Featuring an evil overlord and a mysterious object of immense power, this new video certainly sets the mood for what fans can expect from the fantasy-themed epic:
When a lonely, outcast Illager stumbles upon a mysterious object with terrifying powers, his entire existence is turned upside down. Before long, he finds himself on a path of evil, causing mayhem across the Overworld. Who can stop him?
Minecraft Dungeons will be released for the PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One in Spring 2020, and a Closed Beta for the dungeon-crawling spinoff will be available sometime between now and then. You can sign up now for a chance to receive an invitation at the game’s official website.
