The first season of Minecraft Story Mode is nearing completion with the arrival of episode four out of five. The continuing adventures of Jesse and friends should be hitting iOS now. Considering Microsoft own Mojang (but not Telltale, developers of Story Mode) its odd that the first episode is only now appearing on the Microsoft Store for Windows PCs, so go iPad!
In Episode Four, with the fearsome Wither Storm more dangerous than ever, Jesse, Reuben, and the crew discover there is one thing that can destroy the command block at the heart of the monster - but they'll need to brave the perils of the Farlands to find it. As uneasy allies and ailing friends threaten to tear the group apart, can they defeat the Wither Storm in their final battle? And what sacrifices must be made to succeed? Find out in Episode Four's epic 'Wither Storm Finale' that will turn the page on one chapter before adventures begin anew in the mysterious Episode Five launching in early 2016.
