I know what you're thinking — "Story, in Minecraft?" Well, that's exactly what Minecraft is aiming to do with Minecraft: Story Mode, a new episodic adventure set in the blocky world of Minecraft.
While we've already seen a trailer overviewing Minecraft: Story Mode, today we received a trailer specific to Episode 1 – 'The Order of the Stone.' The new trailer provides some further clarification to the story, including just who The Order of the Stone actually is.
"In Minecraft: Story Mode, playing as either a male or female hero named 'Jesse,' you’ll embark on a perilous adventure across the Overworld, through the Nether, to the End, and beyond. You and your friends revere the legendary Order of the Stone: Warrior, Redstone Engineer, Griefer, and Architect; slayers of the Ender Dragon. While at EnderCon in hopes of meeting Gabriel the Warrior, Jesse’s friends discover that something is wrong… something dreadful. Terror is unleashed, and you must set out on a quest to find The Order of the Stone if you are to save your world from oblivion."
Minecraft: Story Mode – A Telltale Game Series will make its debut on October 13th with the release of Episode 1 – 'The Order of the Stone'. It is the first of five planned episodes in the first season.
