'''''Minecraft: Story Mode''''' is <!-- DO NOT USE PAST TENSE. See MOS:TENSE. Video games do not permanently cease to exist. --> an [[Episodic video game|episodic]] [[point-and-click]] [[video game]] developed and published by [[Telltale Games]], based on [[Mojang Studios]]' [[sandbox video game]] ''[[Minecraft]]''. The first five episodes were released between October 2015 through March 2016 and an additional three episodes were released as [[downloadable content]] (DLC) in mid-2016. A second season consisting of five episodes was released in 2017.
== Voice cast ==
[[File:Minecraft Story Mode characters.jpg|250px|thumb|right|Some characters in ''Story Mode'' (from left to right); Petra, [[Minecraft Story Mode:Axel|Axel]], Jesse, Olivia, Reuben and Lukas (in his original design)]]


The game follows the same episodic format as other Telltale Games titles, such as ''[[The Walking Dead (video game series)|The Walking Dead]]'', ''[[The Wolf Among Us]]'', ''[[Tales from the Borderlands]]'', and ''[[Game of Thrones (2014 video game)|Game of Thrones]]''. The story revolves around a player-created character named Jesse, originally an [[everyman]], who later becomes a hero together with their friends. During the first four episodes, Jesse and their friends attempt to reassemble an old group of heroes known as the Order of the Stone to save the Overworld from the destructive Wither Storm. The rest of the first season follows Jesse and their friends, now the new Order of the Stone, on a new adventure after discovering a powerful artifact. In the second season, Jesse faces the powerful Admin.
[[File:Story Mode Character Gender.png|250px|thumb|right|In ''Story Mode'', the player gets to choose the appearance of the main character, Jesse. The character can be either male or female and can also swap between varieties of clothing and skin tone.]]


The game was available for [[Windows]], [[macOS]], [[PlayStation 3]], [[PlayStation 4]], [[Wii U]], [[Nintendo Switch]], [[Xbox 360]], [[Xbox One]], [[Android (operating system)|Android]], [[iOS]] and [[Apple TV]]. A retail version was released in December 2016,<ref>{{cite web|author=Russell|title=Minecraft: Story Mode – The Complete Adventure comes to retail this month|url=https://www.gamingnexus.com/News/38542/Minecraft-Story-Mode---The-Complete-Adventure-comes-to-retail-this-month/|access-date=October 2, 2016|website=Gaming Nexus|archive-date=December 12, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191212224949/https://www.gamingnexus.com/News/38542/Minecraft-Story-Mode---The-Complete-Adventure-comes-to-retail-this-month/|url-status=live}}</ref> and the game's first season, excluding the DLC episodes, was released on [[Netflix]] in late 2018.

''Minecraft: Story Mode'' is an [[episodic video game|episodic]] interactive comedy-drama [[point-and-click]] [[Graphic adventure game|graphic adventure]] video game. It was released as a number of episodes similar to [[Telltale Games]]' other games. Players can collect items, solve puzzles, and talk to non-player characters through [[conversation tree]]s to learn about the story and determine what to do next.

====Season 1 (2015–16)====
=== Other characters ===
Once, the Order of the Stone, consisting of Gabriel, Soren, Ivor, Ellegaard, and Magnus, defeated the Ender Dragon. In the present-day Jesse, his friends Axel and Olivia, and his pet pig Reuben are preparing for the EnderCon building competition. The Ocelots, a rival team, attempt to sabotage their build, spooking Reuben. Jesse is attacked rescuing him but Petra saves them, who convinces Jesse to help her sell a Wither skull. The buyer, Ivor, tricks them and escapes with it. They pursue him and discover that Ivor will attack Gabriel using a Wither Storm. The group tries to stop it, but are unsuccessful. After recruiting Magnus and Ellegaard, they then head to Soren's lab, hoping that his Formidi-Bomb can destroy the Wither Storm, which Jesse uses to destroy the Storm (although either Magnus or Ellegaard dies in the process); however, the beast reforms in three clusters.


The group, joined by Gabriel or Petra (depending on player choice) escape. After that, Ivor takes the group to his lab to enchant a weapon which can destroy the Command Block. Jesse builds the enchanted weapon and destroys the command block, ultimately killing the Wither Storm, but not before the beast kills Reuben, to Jesse's dismay.

Soon after, the Order finds a Flint and Steel, which Ivor reveals that the "Old Builders" created it and supposedly the "Eversource", a chicken that lays spawn eggs. Jesse, Ivor, Lukas, and Petra return to the temple and opens a portal, leading them to Sky City. The group eventually finds the Eversource, but Aiden, the leader of a rival group called the Blaze Rods, steals it. Jesse later defeats Aiden, who is imprisoned in the new Sky City.
=== Additional voices === <!-- The following personnel do appear in the credits for MC:SM, but weren't given a specified role. -->


Jesse's group retrieve the Flint and Steel and try to return home through another portal, but find themselves in a portal filled corridor. While travelling between them, they arrive in a graveyard with an invite to a supposed party in a nearby mansion, in which they meet some Minecraft YouTubers as well as Cassie Rose, a friend of them. The "White Pumpkin" kills Captain Sparklez and either LDShadowLady or DanTDM through traps. Jesse and their companions discover that the culprit is Cassie. They later defeat her and trap her in a pit filled with endermites.

Jesse and their companions meet PAMA, a computer, which Jesse and Ivor escape from aided by Harper, a scientist who created PAMA. She then takes them to her lab to retrieve something to deactivate PAMA, where Jesse frees Lukas/Petra before they are captured. Harper directs Jesse to PAMA's power source which they remove, freeing the other companion.

{{q|The interactive storytellers at Telltale are giving players the chance to explore their own unique interpretation of the Minecraft universe. They've crafted a story that follows the logic of Minecraft, but still manages to feel original. It's actually pretty funny too. And the pig is adorable.|[[Owen Jones]]<ref name=StoryQuote/>}}
The idea for ''Minecraft: Story Mode'' came around the end of 2012 when Telltale was engaged in work for ''Tales from the Borderlands'', an episodic series based on the ''Borderlands'' series. The idea of developing stories around other established video game franchises led the team to brainstorm the idea for a ''Minecraft''-related game, given that the game was essentially a "blank canvas" for storytelling, according to Job Stauffer, and would create an interesting challenge.<ref name=StoryModeverge/> Telltale began negotiations with Mojang Studios at GDC 2013, and began work on the title shortly thereafter.<ref name=StoryModeverge/> Stauffer noted that Microsoft's acquisition of Mojang Studios was not a factor in the game's development, as their interaction with Mojang Studios began well before Microsoft's offers.<ref name=StoryModeverge/>


Back at the portal corridor, Harper reveals the [[Atlas]] which can help Jesse's group return home. The Old Builders (consisting of Hadrian, Mevia, and Otto) imprison Jesse and force him to compete in games to win his friends' freedom, but Jesse makes a deal with Otto to free his friends, before battling and defeating Hadrian and Mevia, returning home at last.
Telltale opted to create a new main character of Jesse for ''Minecraft: Story Mode'' instead of using the default "Steve" and "Alex" characters from ''Minecraft'', feeling that they did not want to attempt to rewrite how players already saw these characters in the game.<ref>{{citation|url=https://theguardian.com/technology/2014/dec/19/minecraft-story-mode-spin-off-game-announced-mojang|title=Minecraft: Story Mode spin-off game announced by Mojang|author=Keith Stuart|website=The Guardian|date=December 19, 2014}}</ref> Other primary characters in the game are loosely designed around archetypes of common player-characters for Minecraft, such as those who engage in building, fighting, or griefing other players.<ref name=GamasutraStory>{{citation|url=https://gamasutra.com/view/news/255574/The_unlikely_creative_relationship_behind_Minecraft_Story_Mode.php|title=The unlikely creative relationship behind Minecraft: Story Mode|author=Richard Moss|website=Gamasutra|date=October 9. 2015}}</ref> The game does not attempt to provide any background for some concepts in Minecraft, such as the creepers, to avoid the various fan interpretations of such elements, though they will be elements of the game's story.<ref name=GamasutraStory/>


==== Season 2 (2017) ====
Stauffer stated that the game's story was intended to be family-friendly, similar to ''The Goonies'' or ''Ghostbusters'';<ref name=StoryModeverge/> their intended content would be equivalent to a PG-13 or PEGI-12 rating.<ref name=GamasutraStory/> A number of the voice actors are alumni of such films of the 1980s such as Corey Feldman who starred in ''The Goonies'', and the game includes various references to these types of films.<ref name=GamasutraStory/> Stauffer reflected that while Telltale's more recent games like ''The Walking Dead'' were more mature stories, their original adventure games like ''Sam & Max'' and ''Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People'' were written as family-friendly, and that they consider their approach to ''Story Mode'' as "part of our DNA". The story was written to be accessible both to existing players of ''Minecraft'' – both novice and advanced players – and to new audiences outside of the game.<ref name=StoryModeverge/>
Radar, Jesse's new assistant, notifies Jesse of an upcoming adventure with Petra. Jesse helps citizens prepare for Founding Day before meeting her. Their meeting place [[self-destruct]]s to reveal a bottomless pit - where Jesse finds a mysterious gauntlet that gets stuck on his/her hand; but they manage to escape. Petra finds Jack, a hero who can help Jesse remove the gauntlet and the "heckmouth" - the pit. Jack reveals that the gauntlet is tracked to an Ocean Monument, and that a "Structure Block" can close the pit. Jesse convinces Jack and his villager friend Nurm to take them and Petra to it. At the monument's centre, the Admin appears and attempts to kill them, however they and their companions escape to where Jesse collects a Structure Block and frees Jack's old friend Vos.


After Jesse defeats it, the Admin returns and challenges Jesse's group to reclaim the clock (later destroyed by Jack/Petra) in his ice palace, who they then head towards, later joined by Stella and Lluna. However, Vos is revealed to have been the Admin the whole time, and he imprisons Jesse and the person who didn't destroy the clock, while the person who did gets the gauntlet transferred to their hand.
''Minecraft: Story Mode'' was formally announced in December 2014 as a collaboration project between Mojang Studios and [[Telltale Games]]; the announcement was presented as an interactive adventure game named "Info Quest II".<ref>{{citation|url=https://pcmag.com/news/telltale-games-mojang-team-up-for-minecraft-story-mode|title=Telltale Games, Mojang Team Up for 'Minecraft: Story Mode'|author=David Murphy|website=PCMag|date=December 18, 2014}}</ref> Its first trailer was released during the [[MINECON]] convention in early July 2015. Telltale confirmed that they would release the game for the Wii U, representing the first time a Minecraft game has been released on a Nintendo platform.<ref name=StoryModeverge/>


Jesse resolves with their friends to find "Prisoner X" (later revealed as Xara), who apparently knows how to escape the maze. Jesse opens their cell, but has to leave either Nurm or Lluna, a llama that they befriended, behind, before they combat whoever destroyed the clock and then with Xara, attack the Admin. Although it fails, they manage to free Petra/Jack from the Admin's control. The group then escapes the prison with Radar in tow.
On August 24, 2015, Winters posted on Twitter (now X) that she had completed voiceover work for the game but didn't specify whether she voiced a character or did some narration for the game.<ref name=LydiaVoiceStory>{{tweet|LydiaWinters|635846257865527296|Just finished doing voiceover work for our @telltalegames Minecraft: Story Mode! I definitely want to do more of that. Who needs me? :)|August 24, 2015}}</ref>


Xara then shows them a portal which she re-powers, heading to an underground area below the bedrock. Jesse reunites with Ivor, who has become a ninja. Jesse learns more about the Admin, whose name is revealed to be Romeo, and that Romeo, Xara, and their friend Fred once were friends, but a disagreement led to Fred's death and Romeo's corruption. Jesse finds Xara's bed, and can choose to give it to her. Jesse then has to choose between saving either Radar or the people below the bedrock before escaping.  
On August 28, 2015, it was announced that the player will be able to choose the appearance of the main character, Jesse.<ref name=StoryModeCharacter/>


After returning home, Jesse, Petra, and Jack come up with a plan to battle Romeo. If Jesse gave Xara her bed, Romeo destroys the neighboring Champion City, but if Jesse didn't give Xara her bed, she attempts to attack Romeo only to get strangled to death. It is revealed that Ivor managed to free Nurm/Lluna from the prison. With Lukas's assistance, they arrive at the "Terminal Space", the home of the Admin. Jesse, Jack, and Petra reaches it and Jesse enters it, collects Fred's gauntlet, and battles Romeo. After a tense fight, Jesse successfully uses the gauntlet to strip Romeo of his power. Jesse then has a choice to either take Romeo back for redemption or leave him to his fate, and if they rescued the people below the bedrock in the previous episode, then Radar arrives to save them, if not, Romeo distracts the monsters of Terminal Space for Jesse and their friends to escape. Jesse's final choice involves them either choosing to leave Beacontown and have adventures with Petra or staying as mayor.
On October 7, 2015, Anadel, an atmospheric folk band based in {{w|Napa, California}}, announced that they had composed the music for the game.<ref name="facebook.com"/>

The idea for ''Minecraft: Story Mode'' came around the end of 2012 when [[Telltale Games]] was engaged in work for ''[[Tales from the Borderlands]]'', an episodic series based on the ''[[Borderlands (series)|Borderlands]]'' series. The idea of developing stories around other established video game franchises led the team to brainstorm the idea for a ''[[Minecraft]]''-related game, given that the game was essentially a "blank canvas" for storytelling, according to Job Stauffer, and would create an interesting challenge.<ref name="verge"/> The two groups recognized the amount of fan-generated narrative content that existed in the way of [[YouTube]] videos and other media forms that demonstrated the potential for storytelling in the game.<ref name="gamasutra"/> Many on Telltale's staff were also already fans of ''Minecraft'', with a private server that they played on, with some of the incidents that occurred on there becoming ideas for the game's story.<ref name="gamasutra"/> Telltale began negotiations with [[Mojang]] in early 2013 and began work on the title shortly thereafter.<ref name="verge"/> Stauffer noted that [[Microsoft]]'s acquisition of Mojang was not a factor in the game's development, as their interaction with Mojang began well before Microsoft's negotiations.<ref name="verge"/>

Telltale opted to create a new main character of Jesse for ''Minecraft: Story Mode'' instead of using default "[[Steve (Minecraft)|Steve]]" character from ''Minecraft'', feeling that they did not want to attempt to rewrite how players already saw this character in the game.<ref>{{cite web |last=Stewart |first=Keith |date=December 19, 2014 |url=https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/dec/19/minecraft-story-mode-spin-off-game-announced-mojang |title=Minecraft: Story Mode spin-off game announced by Mojang |work=[[The Guardian]] |access-date=August 27, 2015 |archive-date=September 6, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150906065718/http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/dec/19/minecraft-story-mode-spin-off-game-announced-mojang |url-status=live }}</ref> Other primary characters in the game are loosely designed around archetypes of common player-characters for ''Minecraft'', such that those that engage in building, fighting, or griefing other players.<ref name="gamasutra">{{cite web | url = http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/255574/The_unlikely_creative_relationship_behind_Minecraft_Story_Mode.php | title = The unlikely creative relationship behind Minecraft: Story Mode | website = [[Gamasutra]] | date = October 9, 2015 | access-date = October 9, 2015 | first = Richard | last = Moss | archive-date = October 11, 2015 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20151011022155/http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/255574/The_unlikely_creative_relationship_behind_Minecraft_Story_Mode.php | url-status = live }}</ref> The game did not attempt to provide any background for some concepts in ''Minecraft'', such as the creepers, as to avoid the various interpretations that fans have done for these elements, though they are elements of the game's story.<ref name="gamasutra"/>

Stauffer stated that the game's story would be aimed as [[family-friendly]], similar to the films ''[[The Goonies]]'' or ''[[Ghostbusters]]'';<ref name="verge"/> their intended content would be equivalent to a [[Motion Picture Association of America|PG-13]] or [[Pan European Game Information|PEGI]]-12 rating.<ref name="guardian minecon"/><ref name="gamasutra"/> A number of the voice actors are alumni of such films of the 1980s such as [[Corey Feldman]] who starred in ''The Goonies'', and the game includes various references to these types of films.<ref name="gamasutra"/> Stauffer reflected that while Telltale's more recent games like ''The Walking Dead'' were more mature stories, their original adventure games like ''[[Sam & Max Save the World|Sam & Max]]'' and ''[[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]]'' were written as family-friendly, and that they consider their approach to ''Minecraft: Story Mode'' as "part of our DNA".<ref name="eurogamer firstlook"/> The story was aimed to be accessible to both existing players of ''Minecraft'' – both novice and advanced players – and to new audiences outside of the game.<ref name="verge"/>

{{Further information|Telltale Games#Majority studio closure and aftermath (2018)}}
In November 2018, Telltale Games began the process of closing down the studio due to financial issues. Most of its games started to become delisted from digital storefronts, including ''Minecraft: Story Mode''. According to GOG.com, they had to pull the title due to "expiring licensing rights".<ref>{{cite web|author = Chandra|title = Minecraft: Story Mode series being delisted from the catalog|date = April 30, 2019|url = https://www.gog.com/forum/minecraft_story_mode_series/minecraft_story_mode_series_being_delisted_from_the_catalog|website = Gog Galaxy 2.0|access-date = May 28, 2019|archive-date = May 28, 2019|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20190528013425/https://www.gog.com/forum/minecraft_story_mode_series/minecraft_story_mode_series_being_delisted_from_the_catalog|url-status = live}}</ref> The ''Minecraft'' team stated that even for those that had purchased the titles before their delisting, the episodes would no longer be downloadable after June 2019.<ref>{{cite web | url = https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-06-02-download-minecraft-story-mode-now-before-its-delisted-later-this-month | title = Download Minecraft: Story Mode now before it's delisted later this month | first = Vikki | last = Blake | date = June 2, 2019 | access-date = June 2, 2019 | work = [[Eurogamer]] | archive-date = June 2, 2019 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20190602150812/https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-06-02-download-minecraft-story-mode-now-before-its-delisted-later-this-month | url-status = live }}</ref> Because the [[Xbox Live Marketplace]] does not allow for removing games from sale while at the same time allowing existing owners to download the game, each episode of the game's Xbox 360 version was repriced to {{US$|100|long=no}} in the few weeks ahead of the delisting to deter users from purchasing them.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.destructoid.com/minecraft-story-mode-s-xbox-360-price-hike-is-not-a-joke-557896.phtml |title=Minecraft: Story Mode's Xbox 360 price hike is not a joke |first=Peter |last=Glagowski |date=June 18, 2019 |website=[[Destructoid]] |access-date=June 18, 2019 |archive-date=September 23, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200923165250/https://www.destructoid.com/minecraft-story-mode-s-xbox-360-price-hike-is-not-a-joke-557896.phtml |url-status=live }}</ref>


Following the closure of Telltale, Antimo, one of the game's composers, has stated that there is currently legal confusion as to where the rights to the soundtrack lies, leading to the soundtrack only being available for streaming on [[SoundCloud]] and [[YouTube]], where they were released before the closure of Telltale.{{Citation needed|date=June 2022}}

Minecraft: Story Mode was an episodic point-and-click narrative-driven graphic adventure video game based on the sandbox game Minecraft, released in October 2015 across multiple platforms with a Windows (Microsoft Store) release on December 16, 2015, a Wii U release on January 21, 2016, an tvOS release on August 24, 2016, and a Nintendo Switch release on August 22, 2017.<ref name="StoryModeRelease">Template:Citation</ref><ref>Template:Citation</ref> The game was developed by Mojang Studios, the developer of Minecraft, in collaboration with Telltale Games.

In June 2018, Netflix and Telltale signed a partnership agreement, and the first season of the game Minecraft: Story Mode was announced to be released on Netflix on November 7, 2018.<ref>Template:Citation</ref> Due to unknown reasons, the release date was pushed to November 27, 2018. That day, the first three episodes of the series were released and the last two episodes were released on December 5, 2018. Story Mode was removed from Netflix on December 5, 2022.<ref>Source can be found here.</ref>

Music for the game was composed by Anadel, an atmospheric folk band based in California.<ref name="facebook.com">Anadel's official Facebook page</ref> The game follows the episodic format that Telltale has used for its previous titles, where player choices and actions have significant effects on later story elements.

A sequel, Template:El, was released on July 11, 2017, featuring new storylines and characters.

On May 31, 2019, it was announced that Minecraft: Story Mode would no longer be supported following the closure of Telltale Games. The servers for Story Mode were discontinued on June 25, 2019, meaning that the episodes are no longer downloadable.<ref>Template:Mcnet</ref> Despite being discontinued, the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions are playable on the Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 respectively via backward compatibility.<ref>Minecraft: Story Mode - Episode 1: The Order of the Stone | Xbox</ref>

Development

Template:Q The idea for Minecraft: Story Mode came around the end of 2012 when Telltale was engaged in work for Tales from the Borderlands, an episodic series based on the Borderlands series. The idea of developing stories around other established video game franchises led the team to brainstorm the idea for a Minecraft-related game, given that the game was essentially a "blank canvas" for storytelling, according to Job Stauffer, and would create an interesting challenge.<ref name=StoryModeverge/> Telltale began negotiations with Mojang Studios at GDC 2013, and began work on the title shortly thereafter.<ref name=StoryModeverge/> Stauffer noted that Microsoft's acquisition of Mojang Studios was not a factor in the game's development, as their interaction with Mojang Studios began well before Microsoft's offers.<ref name=StoryModeverge/>

Telltale opted to create a new main character of Jesse for Minecraft: Story Mode instead of using the default "Steve" and "Alex" characters from Minecraft, feeling that they did not want to attempt to rewrite how players already saw these characters in the game.<ref>Template:Citation</ref> Other primary characters in the game are loosely designed around archetypes of common player-characters for Minecraft, such as those who engage in building, fighting, or griefing other players.<ref name=GamasutraStory>Template:Citation</ref> The game does not attempt to provide any background for some concepts in Minecraft, such as the creepers, to avoid the various fan interpretations of such elements, though they will be elements of the game's story.<ref name=GamasutraStory/>

Stauffer stated that the game's story was intended to be family-friendly, similar to The Goonies or Ghostbusters;<ref name=StoryModeverge/> their intended content would be equivalent to a PG-13 or PEGI-12 rating.<ref name=GamasutraStory/> A number of the voice actors are alumni of such films of the 1980s such as Corey Feldman who starred in The Goonies, and the game includes various references to these types of films.<ref name=GamasutraStory/> Stauffer reflected that while Telltale's more recent games like The Walking Dead were more mature stories, their original adventure games like Sam & Max and Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People were written as family-friendly, and that they consider their approach to Story Mode as "part of our DNA". The story was written to be accessible both to existing players of Minecraft – both novice and advanced players – and to new audiences outside of the game.<ref name=StoryModeverge/>

Minecraft: Story Mode was formally announced in December 2014 as a collaboration project between Mojang Studios and Telltale Games; the announcement was presented as an interactive adventure game named "Info Quest II".<ref>Template:Citation</ref> Its first trailer was released during the MINECON convention in early July 2015. Telltale confirmed that they would release the game for the Wii U, representing the first time a Minecraft game has been released on a Nintendo platform.<ref name=StoryModeverge/>

On August 24, 2015, Winters posted on Twitter (now X) that she had completed voiceover work for the game but didn't specify whether she voiced a character or did some narration for the game.<ref name=LydiaVoiceStory>Template:Tweet</ref>

On August 28, 2015, it was announced that the player will be able to choose the appearance of the main character, Jesse.<ref name=StoryModeCharacter/>

On October 7, 2015, Anadel, an atmospheric folk band based in Napa, California, announced that they had composed the music for the game.<ref name="facebook.com"/>
