Minecraft Dungeons 2 now has a release date: minecraft dungeons 2 arrives on September 29, with a $29.99 price tag attached to the sequel’s first trailer and gameplay reveal at the Xbox Games Showcase. That turns an earlier-year announcement into a usable launch plan for players who wanted date, price, and platform details in one shot.
September 29 on five platforms
The launch list stretches across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, Switch, and PC through Steam and Microsoft Store. For a sequel built on a co-op hit, that is the key commercial detail: the audience is not being asked to wait for a staggered rollout or guess which hardware family gets priority first.
Minecraft Dungeons released in 2020 and became a fan-favorite by mixing the Minecraft world and aesthetic with an action role-playing game spin. The sequel’s pricing at $29.99 keeps it in the same lower-friction bracket that often works best for a game with broad console reach and couch-co-op appeal.
Xbox Games Showcase details
The Xbox Games Showcase delivered the first trailer and the first concrete details for the game. That matters because the reveal moved Minecraft Dungeons 2 from title-only status into an actual saleable product with timing, platform coverage, and a listed price attached.
The gap between the earlier announcement this year and this showcase reveal left the market with a simple question: when, where, and for how much. Those answers are now in place, and the release is close enough that players can make a purchase decision without waiting for another marketing beat.
What buyers know now
September 29 gives interested players a firm point to plan around, while the $29.99 price makes the sequel easy to compare against other lower-priced releases on the same storefronts. For a return to a co-op formula that already proved it could find an audience in 2020, the setup is straightforward: one date, five platform families, and a price that signals an accessible launch.
