The official Dungeons account posted fresh footage and images this week of the exclusive Twisted cape and Twisted chicken pet available to players who pre-order the September 29 sequel.
Minecraft Dungeons II is entering the final stretch before its September 29 release and Mojang is keeping momentum with fresh cosmetic previews. The official @dungeonsgame account posted a short video on July 16 highlighting the Twisted cape that comes with pre-orders of the Deluxe Edition.
A follow-up still image gave a clearer look at the Twisted chicken pet. Both items appear themed around the Twisted Warden a new antagonist teased in prior trailers and dev commentary. The posts explicitly direct players to the pre-order page and emphasize the exclusivity of the rewards.
What the new items offer
- Twisted cape: dark sinister design that matches the new villain aesthetic
- Twisted chicken pet: companion cosmetic shown in full detail for the first time
- Available only to players who pre-order before the September 29 cutoff
The timing is deliberate. With the game now roughly two months from launch these posts serve as both reminder and incentive while the team continues dropping targeted looks at features like the deep dark portal and new gear systems. Pre-order numbers and wishlist activity tend to spike after each official visual drop.
Minecraft Dungeons II expands on the original with an Overworld hub deeper build customization and a fresh narrative centered on a rising evil. The pre-order bonuses are positioned as an immediate way for fans to align with that new direction from day one.
Defeat evil & look good doing it.
That caption from the official post sums up the light-hearted yet thematic marketing Mojang has used throughout the campaign. Whether the new cosmetics will influence gameplay or remain purely visual is still unclear but their visual tie-in to the Twisted Warden suggests they are more than random filler.
