Hack ‘n’ slash ‘n’ mine ‘n’ crafter Minecraft: Dungeons is all kitted out for a winter of mountain climbing. The blocky dungeon-diver’s next DLC, Howling Peaks, begins its expedition in just over two weeks – and with new baddies and bosses, it’s not just vertigo you’ll be watching out for. But Mojang have also stuffed a brand new season-pass into their backpack, for the square-headed adventurer who’s already looking beyond the ridgeline for DLC quests yet to come.
