minecraft dungeons spookier fall 2021

Minecraft Dungeons is continuing its support with the Spookier Fall 2021 event, which has just gone live. This was first seen in the game last year as simply “Spooky Fall”.

According to Mojang Studios, the event has “heart-pounding seasonal trials, cursed rewards, and monstrous mobs ready to scare the creeper out of you”. You’ll want to participate in order to claim unique and seasonal-exclusive items. Players can get their hands on the Cackling Broom, the Phantom Bow, and the Spooky Gourdian armor set just in time for Halloween.

Xbox Game Pass

Many gamers are becoming invested in the Xbox ecosystem thanks to Xbox Game Pass. By purchasing a subscription, players gain access to a ton of different titles across various platforms. Some have hoped to see the service migrate to other consoles like Switch, but it doesn’t appear to be in the cards for now.

GamesRadar recently spoke with Xbox boss Phil Spencer and asked him point blank about Xbox Game Pass potentially coming to the console. He ultimately said that there aren’t plans at the moment for any closed platforms “mainly because those closed platforms don’t want something like Game Pass.”

Spencer’s full words:
