Minecraft Dungeons has officially ended, as of 24th April ! No more Beta access for all who were lucky enough to get in and unfortunately, for those who didn't get in, the time is up for a chance to get in too.


Minecraft Dungeons beta was made available to the first of several lucky groups of randomly selected participants at the end of march, with new players being accepted throughout the following weeks

Each given additional invite codes, those chosen held the power of granting access to others, too which inevitably inspired the storm of players without access asking, or begging, for a key.

Following the news that the game would be delayed, many were upset, but for those granted beta access this doesn’t seem to have been such a bad thing - in some sense.

The Minecraft Dungeons FAQ indicated beta would last 2-3 weeks. 2 weeks after the first invites Mojang were still giving out more codes. 3 weeks gives no indication of ending and it wasn’t until a tweet announced the beta would be extended for a final weekend, set to end on the 20th April, that an end of the beta was clear - yet this was almost a month after initially opening!

And still, in just the same way as the release itself got delayed several times, so too did the end date. On Monday the official Minecraft Dungeons twitter announced ANOTHER extension of the beta. While " a liiiiiittlee bit more " isn’t as empirical as " 20th " , the beta players were still happy for more time!


Alas, all good things must come to an end! While it was only a matter of time, I am now able to confirm the beta has ended. For real this time! To confirm, loading up my beta launcher gives me the following :

" Thank you for playing Minecraft Dungeons beta
The minecraft dungeons beta is now closed , as we focus on the last bits and bobs for the official release May 26

Don't forget to send us your feedback about the beta! Your game progress wont be transferred from the beta to the official release, and the Minecraft Dungeons beta will be automatically uninstalled when you install the official release of Minecraft Dungeons “

Below the message there are two option : Uninstall beta ; Give feedback

While it says it will uninstall the beta when installing the official release, I hesitate to press uninstall beta for now.

Give feedback is a button that could already be found on the beta launcher while the beta was active. It takes you to the Minecraft Feedback web page.


And so , with that, an era ends.
As fun as Minecraft Dungeons beta was, I found it a little repetitive by the final week as I hade spend countless hours streaming and recording within the confines of just the first two missions. Without unlocking later environments, dungeons , difficulty settings and having legitimate access to all the interesting weapons and artifacts that should be attained later in the game I gradually ran out of new and exciting things to cover.

This by no means reflects the nature of the full game, as with so many more missions and difficulties, along with a plethora of new mobs, items and environments there is no doubt the game will be a blast !

I, like may others, look forward to release in just over a month, on 26th May.

During the gap between the end of beta and the release I have hours of gameplay to tide over both views hungry for more gameplay, and myself with enough resources to continue producing videos until launch.
