As you can see, there are a handful of weapons that players can collect throughout their journey in Minecraft Dungeons. If you’re having trouble finding a specific weapon, you can play through the game on a higher difficulty once you’ve beaten the game to have an increased chance of getting a unique weapon. You can also explore the secret levels to try and find some rare weapons. 

There are currently two DLCs planned for Minecraft Dungeons, so it’s possible that developers could add more weapons to the list in the future. The Jungle Awakens DLC is first up and is set to release sometime in July, followed by the Creeping Winter DLC that will come later this year. 

Players who have purchased the Hero Pass will get access to both DLCs, a pet chicken, and the Hero Cape. The main story will only take a few hours to play, but it is largely dependent on your style of play. For those that like to explore around and loot every chest, it’ll take long. But for those who just want to play through the story, it can be beaten fairly quickly. Additionally, you can invite a friend to play with you if you’d like, but each player will receive different loot drops. 

There’s a lot more to Minecraft Dungeons than collecting weapons. As we mentioned earlier, there are hidden levels to uncover, achievements to earn, and hidden items to locate! For more information, be sure to check out some of the guides that are listed below!
