What Is the Max Level Cap in Minecraft Dungeons?

At the time of writing, it appears that there is no max level in Minecraft Dungeons. It’s possible that there could be a level cap, but if there is, no player has reached it yet. Further, if you want to increase your level, you’ll have to play through the game multiple times as you’ll need to unlock all of the difficulty settings. While this may sound unnecessary, to attempt to reach the potential max level you need to face harder, stronger enemies that aren’t present in the default setting. 

Thankfully, the game won’t take a long time to play, depending on your style of play. However, after you’ve made it through the game once, you should have a good idea of how to play through the main story and might be able to beat it even faster next time. However, to quickly increase your level, you’ll need to play through the game on all three difficulties – Normal, Adventure, and Apocalypse.

As you play through the game on harder difficulties, you should have acquired a decent amount of items and gear that will help you make your way through some of the tougher enemies. If you’re still having trouble, you can always invite a friend and play split-screen.

Additionally, if you’re having trouble with the harder difficulties, you may want to consider exploring some of the secret levels to get better gear. Unlocking the hidden levels will take a bit of time, but you’ll have a better chance of finding some high-tier loot that will make life a whole lot easier. 

With two DLCs coming in the future, it’s possible that developers decided not to implement a Minecraft Dungeons level cap since there will be more missions to play through, but we really can’t say for sure. Additionally, players who have purchased the Hero Pass will get the DLCs for free, along with a pet chicken and the Hero Cape. 

You have probably noticed the Dungeons is a lot different than the original game. For one, there is no building or crafting in Dungeons, which is a core gameplay mechanic in the original title. It’s nice to see a new twist on an old franchise and it should be interesting to see how the community feels about it. If it’s popular enough, we could see a whole new side of the series that hasn’t been explored yet.
