As a longtime Minecraft fan, I got genuinely excited when Mojang revealed five brand-new capes coming to Minecraft Dungeons 2 at launch. Two of them are nostalgic throwbacks to the original game — and they look fantastic with improved visuals in the sequel.
These capes aren’t just cosmetic. Several offer small gameplay bonuses like increased stealth, damage resistance, or unique particle effects that make your hero feel more powerful and stylish during dungeon runs.

The Creeper Classic and Enderman Shadow capes are clear fan-service designs that bring back that nostalgic feel from the original Minecraft. The other three are fresh creations made specifically for Minecraft Dungeons 2, with the Golden Guardian Cape being especially popular for its premium look.
Quick Tip: Focus on the main story first to unlock the Golden Guardian Cape quickly. The Seasonal Wanderer Cape is time-limited, so make sure to log in during the summer event if you want it for free.
These new capes significantly expand customization options and make every hero feel unique. I can’t wait to rock the Creeper Classic in my first playthrough.
