As the name implies, these seasonal adventures for Minecraft Dungeons will be updated somewhat frequently by Mojang. During a season, players will have the opportunity to earn unique rewards by getting Adventure Points and increasing their Adventure Rank. The whole thing is set up similarly to a battle pass system.

Cloudly Climb’s main focus is adding more end game content for player to enjoy. The base story and DLCs will remain mostly untouched, but players will have a theoretically endless amount of content to enjoy after completing it. The major draw here is The Tower, a new game mode where players will scale a massive tower. Each floor of this tower will be procedurally generated, and there’s one more catch. Rather than taking in their own equipment, players will start off each run like a blank slate, and must grow more powerful as they climb higher. This is reminiscent of roguelite games like Returnal or Hades.
That said, the rewards gained from this tower are permanent and can be taken back into other areas of the game. Players will increase their Adventure Rank by completing daily and weekly challenges in order to earn emotes, cosmetics, and other items. At the very least, this will definitely help to provide some direction to players that have already beaten everything and don’t have much reason to come back to the game.
The cherry on top of it all is that this new seasonal Minecraft Dungeons content is completely free to players. There will be an option to spend real money in order to unlock better rewards from the Adventure Rank system, but it is not required by any means. Players can expect to see the update roll out sometime this holiday season, which is surprisingly soon considering the scope of the event. There’s still no word on how long a season will last and what will happen to season specific content once the season ends, so players should stay tuned to learn more.
Minecraft Dungeons is available now for PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
