Minecraft Dungeons II DLC

Two DLC packs are committed for Minecraft Dungeons II. DLC 1 is planned for winter 2026 and DLC 2 for spring 2027, and both are included with the Deluxe Edition at no extra cost. How many DLC packs the game eventually gets is not fixed: the total depends on how the game performs, per Mojang product leadership.

Minecraft Dungeons II ships with its DLC roadmap half-drawn: two packs are dated and bundled into the Deluxe Edition, and everything beyond them is deliberately open. Here is exactly what is known.

The two dated packs

PackPlanned windowAvailability
DLC 1Winter 2026Included in Deluxe; separate purchase otherwise
DLC 2Spring 2027Included in Deluxe; separate purchase otherwise

Both windows come from official store copy on the console listing, which is why they carry official status. Neither pack has a name, a theme, a price for standard-edition buyers, or a date more precise than a season.

How many DLC packs will there be?

This is the unusual part. Mojang product leadership has described the total as performance-dependent: if Dungeons II and its DLC sell and play well, more packs get made; if not, they stop at the committed two. The first Minecraft Dungeons shipped six DLC packs over its life, so the comparison set exists, but no quota for the sequel has been promised.

⚠️ Unconfirmed. A store data title mentioning "Levers and Chests" has circulated as a possible DLC name. It is a single uncorroborated trace with no official confirmation, so this wiki does not treat it as a pack name.

What the packs might contain

The only official steer is generic: Mojang has said the DLC will take players to exciting new locations and bring more creatures to Minecraft. Whether that means new Overworld regions, deeper Sift content or another dimension is unknown.

Should you buy Deluxe for the DLC?

The economics: Deluxe costs $20 more than Standard and includes both committed packs. If the eventual per-pack price lands anywhere near the first game's DLC pricing, Deluxe is the cheaper path for a player who wants both. If you are undecided, Standard keeps every option open, because nothing in the base game is gated: the campaign, The Sift and co-op are all complete without spending a cent more. The edition comparison. What the game costs in your region.

FAQ

Do I need the DLC to finish the story?

No. The base campaign, including The Sift and its conclusion, is complete in the Standard Edition and on Game Pass. DLC adds new content on top.

Will DLC be on Game Pass?

Nothing has been announced about DLC availability on Game Pass. The base game is included with the subscription from day one; treat DLC inclusion as unannounced.

When will DLC 1 get a real date?

Historically the series narrows a season window to a date close to release. Expect the winter 2026 window to firm up nearer the pack itself.
