Telltale's Minecraft: Story Mode Is Getting Three Extra Episodes

Game Informer did a write-up on the new approach that Telltale is taking with the seasonal structure of Minecraft: Story Mode.

To get an early glimpse of the action Telltale Games has planned for the series' fifth episode, take a few moments to check out all of the new Minecraft: Story Mode screenshots found in the gallery at the top of this post. The game is even performing well as a physical release, despite some versions only featuring its first episode on disc (with a season pass for later slices).

Story Mode's thrilling conclusion... was in Episode 4.

Atlantic City fire fighters, police won't get paid during government shutdown
City Hall in Atlantic City will close beginning in April due to "financial circumstances", Mayor Don Guardian announced Monday. The closure would be in effect through at least May 2, when the city expects to receive a quarterly tax payment.

Episode 5 will follow Jesse and friends as they head to an abandoned temple holding mysterious treasures. In the first episode since the Wither Storm finale, a new episode, "Order Up", will be available starting March 29th on PC, Mac, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and iOS/Android devices. Order Up will bridge the gap between the Wither Storm story arc and three all-new adventures exploring new and unfamiliar worlds. Former Ocelot Aiden and his crew ambush the heroes, and they all end up caught up in the politics of a new world among the clouds. Aiden will continue to make things hard for the order by telling the rulers of Sky City that the order is up to no good.

It sounds like the start of a new season, but Telltale emphasized that these are additional chapters in the current seasons, referring to them specifically as episodes six, seven, and eight. Additional details about the episodes were not shared, but the plot for episode 5 was given.
