Cape season updated for launch week. Hero and Twisted still matter, Deluxe still drools Blub and Soul Cape, but the live watchtime promo that actually has a clock right now is the Aurora Cape — Minecraft-only, not a Dungeons II equip. Corrupted Creeper Cape slid back to “future events.” Special Cape remains a mystery novel. Same Microsoft account or cry later.
The checklist (Sept 29 sheet)
- Hero Cape — play Dungeons I, log into Dungeons II before December 31, 2026; then Java/Bedrock on the same Microsoft account
- Twisted Cape + Twisted Chicken + Steve/Alex rift skins — pre-order only now; redeem/confirm in Dungeons II, then Minecraft
- Physical pre-orders: redeem pack-in codes on Xbox / Nintendo / PlayStation first
- Deluxe — Blub pet, Soul Cape, dark-golden Valorie/Kellen/Ren/Flores
- Aurora Cape — Minecraft Java/Bedrock only; TikTok ≥3 min or Twitch ≥15 min on rewards-enabled Dungeons II streams, Sept 29 9:00 AM PST – Oct 14 11:59 PM PST; redeem at minecraft.net/redeem by Oct 31, 2026
- Corrupted Creeper Cape — watch for future online/offline promos
- Special Cape — stay tuned

Cross-game flex
Hero and Twisted still bring Minecraft lobby swagger once unlocked in Dungeons II. Classic Dungeons hero skins and a Dungeons II hero pack (Valorie, Kellen, Flores, Ren) sit in Marketplace for Bedrock dress-up. Write the Hero Dec 31 deadline and the Aurora Oct 14 watch window on the same sticky note — two clocks, two failure modes.
- One Microsoft account everywhere on purpose
- Confirm cape in Dungeons II before you panic-search Java options
- Aurora: live stream → code in Twitch inventory / TikTok notifications → minecraft.net/redeem
- Ignore “free cape” Discord bait
Launch cosmetics are calendars wearing fabric — Hero has a year-end fuse, Aurora has two weeks of livestream homework.
