Minecraft Dungeons 1.22 Patch Notes (Cloudy Climb) – December 14, 2021

  • A new progression track has been introduced, allowing you to unlock new cosmetics like capes, skins, emotes, pets, and flairs. While you expand your collection, prove your worth by climbing the Tower – a mysterious and replayable structure that puts your skill to the test through several floors of challenging content.

What is the Tower?

The Tower is a new, singleplayer gameplay area available for all players as part of the free Cloudy Climb update.

In the Tower, the player controls an avatar: a character that initially has no gear, but slowly collects it through a selection of rewards you earn as you progress. The Tower itself has 30 different floors, with each one harder than the previous one, and the goal is to make it as high up as you possibly can.

The Tower is home to both familiar mobs and bosses from Minecraft Dungeons – but also a few new foes as well. Not all Tower inhabitants are hostile and some of them will help you along your way up by modifying the gear that you collect. They can increase the power of it, upgrade it to a unique variant, or gild it.

How do the new cosmetics work and what types are there?

There are several new types of cosmetic rewards available with Seasonal Adventures that you can be applied to your character you’re the Cosmetics tab of the inventory screen.

Skins – The base appearance of characters

Capes – Extra cosmetic items worn by characters

Emotes – Animated expressions, like dances, that players can trigger

Pets – Non-combat pets that will follow you through the world

Flairs – Visual effects that can be triggered when drinking a potion, defeating an enemy, and more

These new cosmetics cannot be purchased separately and can only be earned by progressing through Adventure Ranks.
