Dungeons: Creeping Winter

This page describes content that is a part of the Creeping Winter DLC.

 

Creeping Winter is the second paid DLC for Minecraft Dungeons. It was released on September 8, 2020. It is the second and final DLC of the Hero Pass and the second DLC set in the island realms. It includes two missions, Frosted Fjord and Lone Fortress, a secret mission, Lost Settlement, and a boss, the Wretched Wraith, found in Lone Fortress.

Appearance

Creeping Winter is set in an unnamed snowy island. The island contains Frosted Fjord on a river that flows across the majority of the island. The island also contains Lone Fortress and villages dotted around the land. To the north is a large iceberg with Lost Settlement on top. Many spruce trees grow throughout the island. Within certain parts of the river viking-like shipwrecks can be seen in the background. The island is also littered with iron mines.
