TLDR

Destructoid's review says Minecraft Dungeons II has so many upgrades that the 2020 original feels like a proof of concept by comparison. Xbox Wire says the massive, interconnected world was its favorite addition. On September 28, Xbox Wire said the game was set to launch September 29 with a new dimension called the Sift.
