The fifth episode, titled “Order Up!”, was originally planned to be the final episode of the first series. However, Telltale has also announced that a three-part “post-season” will release later this year, extending the story of Jesse and his/her gang.
The voice cast will be joined by Sean Astin, who played Samwise Gamgee in Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings.
Minecraft: Story Mode is Telltale’s adaptation of Mojang’s popular franchise, albeit, adapted into Telltale’s signature episodic adventure template. It’s unusual for Telltale to announce extra episodes so early, but judging by the success and popularity of Minecraft and Minecraft: Story Mode, it’s understandable that Telltale want to strike while the anvil is hot.
