The world is your square oyster
New DLC based on ancient Greek mythology is now available for the versions of Minecraft.
Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation 4 owners can now buy a $4 bundle that comes with 39 Greek mythology character skins (see the list below). There is also a custom texture set, new UI, and even an original soundtrack from composer Gareth Coker, who most recently did the music for Ori and the Blind Forest.
