Nostalgic horrorshow Stranger Things returned for a second season on Friday, you may need heard, and Minecraft celebrated its return with a Stranger Things DLC pores and skin pack for the Windows 10 version. I’m not usually jazzed about licensed skins however I used to be shocked by: 1) How well-done and recognisable characters are; 2) Quite what number of secondary characters had been Minecraftised. Also, I wish to use this house to declare that Steve is the most effective character on Stranger Things. Anyway! The pack incorporates 52 skins for gamers to put on, together with a wide range of outfits for the principle characters.
Have a glance on this right here trailer, although you won’t wish to for those who’re avoiding even minor spoilers till you’ve completed watching season 2.
Not unhealthy, eh? And you possibly can see all of the skins in this Minecraft blog post. Spoilers, obvs.
The pores and skin pack prices 490 Minecoins, which comes out at about £2.50. The irritations of microtransaction currencies in fact imply you possibly can’t simply purchase 490 Minecoins, as a substitute needing to overspend and have a couple of left over. If you missed the information, the Winton model of Minecraft additionally makes use of Minecoins to buy premium mods, worlds, and bits.
This is for the Winton model, I have to stress, not Minecraft’s authentic Java model which continues as earlier than.
I watched Stranger Things season 2 over the weekend to cap off an intense staycation of sleeping, studying, and watching stuff. It’s fairly enjoyable, innit? I don’t dig the nostalgia overload, assume it’s too eager to pastiche The Classics, and largely dislike the tweenagers, but it surely’s a merry outdated horror romp.
