Minecraft Dungeons 2 Review

Minecraft Dungeons 2 is developed by Mojang and Double Eleven, published by Xbox Game Studios and Mojang. It is available on Xbox Series X/S, PC, and PS5, with a release date of September 29, 2026, priced at £24.99. The game serves as an accessible introduction to the action RPG genre, targeting younger audiences, particularly Minecraft fans. It features a semi-open-world structure, allowing exploration of various areas, but the main quest line and side quests can be completed in approximately seven to ten hours. Combat mechanics are straightforward, with rapid loot acquisition and a system that can frustrate players due to hidden stats. The narrative involves ill-intentioned Illagers and lacks variety in quests. The game includes a co-op mode for up to four players and cross-platform online play, but players cannot transfer offline characters online. The Deluxe Edition includes additional content such as a Soul Cape, hero skins, and access to DLC packs.

Minecraft Dungeons 2 Review (PS5) – A Stripped Back Dungeon Crawler Which Earns It Keep With New And…

The author has never played Minecraft and has mixed feelings about dungeon crawlers, finding titles like Diablo IV overly complex. They discovered Minecraft Dungeons 2, which offers a simpler dungeon-crawling experience without the usual complexities of the genre. The game's narrative involves the Illagers opening a portal to a realm called the Sift, where players must reclaim the Overworld. Minecraft Dungeons 2 lacks traditional class systems and deep character customization, instead allowing players to create characters from presets and use a straightforward equipment system. The game features fast travel, clear objectives, and a polished visual style, with responsive combat and a variety of weapons and armor. While it may feel shallow to some veteran players, it is designed for cooperative play and prioritizes accessibility. Minecraft Dungeons 2 is set to release for PS5 on September 29, 2026.

RuneScape: Dragonwilds (PC) Review

RuneScape: Dragonwilds introduces players to the new continent of Ashenfall, where they face the Dragon Queen Kuldra amidst a significant dragon threat. The game features a new biome called the Scorned Wilderness and a raid-style dungeon, requiring 40 to 60 hours of gameplay to complete its story content. It includes a sophisticated crafting system that allows for extensive customization of the game world. The combat system has been modernized, incorporating various weapon types and a nuanced parrying system, while the magic system offers unique runes that alter spell effects. Players experience skill progression through the use of tools or weapons, but the early game lacks healing potions, making it challenging. The game encourages exploration with a robust crafting system and in-game mounts, as well as the ability to create travel routes using loadstone teleporter panels. It also features dungeons with platforming elements and diverse enemy encounters. RuneScape: Dragonwilds supports full crossplay for consoles and has a roadmap for future updates.
