Minecraft Dungeons 2 Price: Standard, Deluxe and Game Pass

The Minecraft Dungeons 2 price is $29.99 for the Standard Edition and $49.99 for the Deluxe Edition. The game launched on September 29, 2026 at those prices on Steam, Xbox Series X|S, PS5, Switch and Switch 2, and there is no free version. Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers play the full game at no extra cost, and Standard owners can add the Deluxe Upgrade for $19.99 on Steam.

Those are the US list prices published on each storefront as of October 28, 2026. Regional pricing and tax still vary by store, so a euro, pound or yen figure is a local store number rather than a conversion of the dollar price.

What the Two Editions Cost

The gap between the two tiers is $20.00. That difference buys five cosmetic or content items rather than earlier access: both editions unlock at the same minute, 08:00 UTC on September 29, 2026, and neither edition has been announced with an early-play window. A full contents breakdown, including the Valorie, Kellen, Flores and Ren Deluxe skins, is on the standard versus deluxe comparison.

The prices above are the US dollar figures carried on the official listings at launch. Regional pricing and tax are set per storefront, so a euro, pound or yen figure is that store's local number, not a conversion of the dollar price — Steam, for example, lists Standard at EUR 29.99 rather than a converted $29.99.

What Each Price Tier Includes

Standard Edition buyers get the whole game: the seamless open world, the four Heroes, 24 melee weapon types, 10 bows, 7 crossbows, the ten-boss roster and the Sift dimension, which is not a separate purchase. Nothing in the published material places story content behind the higher tier.

Deluxe Edition buyers add five things on top: the Soul cape, the Blub pet, Deluxe versions of the four main hero skins, and the first two DLC packs. Because the DLC has no standalone published price yet, the value of the Deluxe tier can't be calculated against buying the DLC separately — anyone weighing the $49.99 cost should treat the two DLCs as an unknown, not as a guaranteed saving.

Pre-order bonuses sit outside both tiers. Ordering either edition before September 28, 2026 adds the Steve and Alex hero skins, the Twisted cape and the Twisted chicken pet at no extra cost. Missing the deadline does not raise the price of the game; it removes cosmetics that are not sold separately. Details are on the pre-order bonus page.

How Much It Costs on Game Pass

Game Pass is the cheapest published route into the game. Dungeons II is a day-one title on Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass, which means subscribers pay the subscription cost instead of the $29.99 sticker price, and can start on September 29, 2026 at the same 08:00 UTC anchor as buyers.

Which other Game Pass tiers include the game is not yet confirmed, and neither is the exact unlock minute for the subscription build versus a purchased copy. The Game Pass day one guide tracks tier status and runs the buy-versus-subscribe math in more detail, including the point that a subscription only beats $29.99 if you cancel before stacking months.

Platform Prices: Steam, Xbox, Switch and PlayStation

Store listings differ in what they publish, but the $29.99 Standard price carried across every launch platform, and the $49.99 Deluxe tier is sold on Steam and the Microsoft Store.

Physical versus digital still varies by region: Nintendo lists a Switch 2 product page, but boxed availability and retail pricing are set by each retailer rather than by Mojang. The same applies to PC keys sold outside Steam and the Microsoft Store — third-party key pricing is not something Mojang or Xbox publishes, and gray-market listings should not be treated as the game's real cost.

What does not change across platforms is install size, which runs 9.06 GB on Windows and Xbox Series X and S, 3.9 GB on Switch and 5 GB on Switch 2. See the download size page for the per-platform breakdown.

The what is Minecraft Dungeons 2 page collects the rest of the basic facts — developer, engine, platforms and launch stamp — behind these numbers.

Pre-Order Price and the September 28 Deadline

Pre-ordering does not discount the game. Both editions cost the same before and after launch, so the only financial reason to pre-purchase is the bonus bundle: two hero skins, a cape and a pet, all included free with a pre-order placed before September 28, 2026.

Physical pre-order codes route through the platform redemption pages — Xbox at xbox.com/redeem, Nintendo at ec.nintendo.com/redeem, PlayStation through the store's Redeem Code option — while digital pre-orders attach to the account automatically. Pre-ordering on Steam or the Microsoft Store before the deadline is the simplest way to keep the option open.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Minecraft Dungeons 2 cost?

$29.99 for the Standard Edition and $49.99 for the Deluxe Edition. The $29.99 Standard price launched on Steam, the Microsoft Store, PS5, Switch and Switch 2 on September 29, 2026; the Deluxe tier is sold on Steam and the Microsoft Store.

Is there a cheaper way to play Minecraft Dungeons 2?

Yes. Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass include the game day one, so subscribers pay the subscription cost instead of $29.99. Other tiers are not yet confirmed.

Does the price drop on launch day?

Nothing published indicates a launch discount. Pre-ordering is not cheaper than buying on September 29 — the difference is the bonus cosmetics, which stop being available after September 28, 2026.

Is Minecraft Dungeons 2 more expensive on Switch or PS5?

No. The $29.99 Standard price was the same on every launch platform, and Switch, Switch 2 and PS5 did not carry a premium over Steam or the Microsoft Store. Regional stores still set their own local prices and tax, so a non-US figure reflects that store's pricing rather than a platform surcharge.

Does Deluxe Edition include the base game?

Yes. Deluxe is Standard plus the Soul cape, the Blub pet, four hero skins and the first two DLC packs. The full contents comparison is on the editions page.

Can I pre-order and pay later?

Pre-purchase behavior differs by store and is not yet confirmed across all storefronts. What is confirmed is the deadline: pre-orders must be in before September 28, 2026 to include the bonus items.
