Minecraft Dungeons was originally planned for a vague April release date, but that’s now changed a bit. Mojang just announced the dungeon-crawler spinoff of its acclaimed block builder will release a month later, on May 26.
It’s a simultaneous launch for Nintendo Switch, Xbox One (including Game Pass), PlayStation 4, and PC. Minecraft Dungeons won’t initially have full cross-play support, but the team plans on implementing it sometime in the future.
There’s no word on why there was a delay for the game. Still, it’s barely a month-long delay, so the cause likely wasn’t anything too serious.
