Minecraft Dungeonslaunches on May 26 as part of Xbox Game Pass and on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4. It takes an old-school approach to action RPG gameplay, focusing entirely on the gear grind as you ascend increasingly difficult tiers filled with swarms of gradually more powerful mobs.
As we get deeper and deeper into the endgame, not only are wediscovering some insane weaponsand armor with cool intersecting effects, but we’re finding more and morehidden levels and secrets. Initially, we thought the game only had two hidden levels, but as of writing we have now found four, and our friends atLords of Gaming have now found afifth, and it’s one level Diablo fans will love.

Minecraft Dungeons' is tied together with a central Camp, where you can trade Emeralds for random loot with villagers, and sort out your gear, and select which missions to undertake with your pals. The Camp area is suspiciously big. Indeed, searching around the area, you can find a few hidden chests and things like that.
As we get deeper into the game, we’ve started uncovering all sorts of crazy secrets that are truly,trulyhidden, without any hints or waypoints. Every now and then, I’ve been able to find secret doors and hidden switches by searching around. Some require rolling off ledges thatlookas though they will kill you, but sometimes fortune favors the brave.
After some crazy parkour skills in the Camp, you can access a hall which features pixel-style artwork of the Minecraft Dungeons' dev team. However, there’s also a painting you can interact with, giving you hints to a collection of runes you can find that grant access to a special Diablo 2-tribute level. Yes. It is the cow level.

Simply titled “Moo?” the level is populated by lovable Mooshroom cows, which spawn inMinecraft’s famed Mushroom Fields biome. The level is a tribute to the infamousCow level from Diablo II. Awesome.
