Minecraft reveals Lightyear collaboration DLC

Another collaboration for Minecraft is here, with the game just now revealing that it’s teaming up with Lightyear – as in Buzz Lightyear. This comes hot on the heels of the new Lightyear movie from Disney.

With the DLC, players can experience Buzz’s origin story and help him navigate an alien planet after an unfortunate crash landing. Five missions are featured, including a hostile jungle, a swamp, and a mine, plus various alien settlements. Players will be tasked with navigating the terrain while fighting enemies and several bosses using various gadgets. It’s also possible to fly different aircraft and avoid obstacles to safely get to your next objective between missions.

We’ll also mention that a free Lightyear-themed Character Creator item is included in the Minecraft Lightyear DLC. It can be accessed at the Dressing Room.

Here’s a trailer for the new collaboration DLC:

Note that Switch players looking to get their hands on the content will need to wait a bit longer. However, it should be launching “soon”. When it’s out, fans will be able to pick it up by visiting the Minecraft Marketplace. We’ll keep an eye out for the DLC and will update this post when it’s up on Switch.
