The teaser image shows three piglins in the Nether, indicating that Minecraft Dungeons will take place in the newly updated Nether world, complete with the all-new mobs. Expect a brutal fight with piglins and likely new gear fashioned either out of gold or netherite.

Players can buy the Season Pass right now to gain access to Howling Peaks and the next three DLCs for Minecraft Dungeons, including the aforementioned escapade into the Nether.
