Minecraft 26.3 Snapshot 3 Patch Notes (7th July 2026)
Minecraft Dungeons II sends you across two worlds to stop a fresh threat. Four-player teams, new combat encounters, and legendary gear await.

Minecraft Dungeons II is here, and it's swapping the single-world grind for something far more ambitious. You're no longer just defending one realm. This sequel tasks you and up to three allies with stopping a new threat that spans the Overworld and beyond, which is a proper escalation for the series.
The combat focus remains, but the stakes feel higher. You'll face tougher enemies in what the developers describe as explosive encounters, and the gear system has expanded to match. Crafting your hero now involves hunting down legendary weapons, armour, and artefacts across these dual worlds, giving you real reason to replay encounters and experiment with builds.
Co-op remains the heart of the experience. Four-player teams can tackle the campaign together, and that collaborative chaos is where Dungeons II seems designed to shine. Pre-orders are live now, bundling in cosmetics and early DLC access alongside the base game. Full patch notes and pre-order details are available here.
