Telltale Announce Extra Minecraft: Story Mode Episodes
Three extra episodes
Telltale's episodic adventure Minecraft: Story Mode [official site] is due to wrap up this month an- oh no, no it isn't. Telltale today announced that the fifth episode of their storytelling spin-off will launch next Tuesday, March 29th, but also announced that it won't be the final episode. Another three parts are coming later this year, Telltale now say, "post-season episodes" sold as DLC beyond the original five-episode season pass.
Telltale say, "These continuing Adventures of the New Order of the Stone will follow the additional escapades of Jesse and the group as they explore new and unfamiliar worlds beyond their own." They don't have much to reveal about them beyond that, but they do have a little to say about what will go down in Episode Five:
"On a tip from Ivor, Jesse and friends head to an abandoned temple holding mysterious treasures. Ambushed by former Ocelot Aiden and his crew, our heroes find themselves in an entirely new world: Sky City! As they explore, the Order finds that resources are at a premium, and nothing but 'The Void' exists below the known world. When Aiden convinces Sky City's ruler that the New Order of the Stone are up to no good, you'll need to make some tough choices to clear your name, and keep Aiden from destroying an innocent world."
Mostly I'm excited about this announcement because it mentions the character voiced by Paul Reubens, which reminds me that Pee-wee's Big Holiday came out while I was on holiday. I now know what I'm doing tonight.
