The next big DLC for Minecraft Dungeons has already been revealed: the massive and fiery Flames of the Nether DLC. Flames of the Nether may very well be the largest update yet for this Minecraft spin-off, and takes the ARPG to the recently Nether Update. If you want to learn more about this huge update, take a look at the latest dev diary from Mojang Studios and its deep dive into Flames of the Nether.

Flames of the Nether is going to contain six exciting new missions spread across all the new biomes introduced in Minecraft's Nether Update, with hordes of brand new enemies to discover and conquer. The update will also come with a free portion that will massively improve Minecraft Dungeons' endgame, something players have been clamoring for since the game first launched last year.

The dev diary gives you a closer look at some of the new gear, including Unique weapons and armor, mobs, levels, and more coming in Flames of the Nether. It's a great look at the upcoming DLC, and certainly shows how this update is going to be the biggest one yet for Minecraft Dungeons.

Flames of the Nether launches for Minecraft Dungeons on February 24, 2021, on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, PlayStation, PC, and even Xbox Cloud Gaming (Project xCloud), where Minecraft Dungeons is our number one pick in the Best Games for Xbox Cloud Gaming.
