Minecraft Dungeons is available in two editions – Standard Edition and Here Edition. If you have purchased the Hero Edition of Minecraft Dungeons, you get the Hero Cape, a chicken pet, and two playable skins. In the game, players can change their appearance with new armor, but that has an impact on the game. While armors can alter your appearance, they come with particular abilities and hence your gameplay. However, for players with the Hero Edition of the game, you can get a Hero Cape and Chicken Pet without affecting your main game. These are cosmetics and hence, only affect the appearance of the character. In this guide, we will show you how to get the Hero Cape and Chicken Pet in Minecraft Dungeons.
The Standard Edition of the game is available at $19.99; whereas the Hero Edition costs $29.99. You would expect the cosmetics you get would load as you open the game, but that’s not the case, you need to enable it from the Inventory, which has a special Cosmetics tab.
In this guide, we will show you the exact steps that will enable you to get the Hero Cape and Chicken Pet in Minecraft Dungeons.
Another important thing you should know, if you have the Hero Edition, you can look forward to two upcoming downloadable content (DLC) in the coming days.
