First ‘Minecraft: Story Mode’ Trailer Features an Unlikely Band of Heroes and Also a Pig

The first Minecraft: Story Mode trailer features an unlikely band of heroes and also a pig. The five-part episodic video game series, by Telltale Games, is based on the extremely popular Minecraft video game by Mojang.

Players will control protagonist Jesse throughout the season, as portrayed by actor Patton Oswalt. Jesse and his group of friends revere the legendary Order of the Stone; four adventurers who slayed an Ender Dragon. The Order is the very best at what they do: Warrior, Redstone Engineer, Griefer, and Architect. While at EnderCon, Jesse and his friends discover that something is wrong… something dreadful. Terror is unleashed, and they must set out on a journey to find The Order of the Stone if they are to save their world from oblivion.

The trailer was released at the recent Minecon 2015 convention in London, England and features the dulcet tones of comedian Patton Oswalt as protagonist Jesse. Though there is no definitive release date, the game is coming “soon for PC, Mac, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, compatible iOS devices, and Android.”
