More On: Minecraft: Story Mode - A Telltale Games Series

If you've been keeping up with Telltale Games' Minecraft Story Mode, then good news: Episode 7: Access Denied arrives on July 26th. In this episode, Jesse and his/her team portal into a world enslaved by a cheerful, obsessive computer named PAMA. Jesse must team up with Harper, a new ally (voiced by Community's Yvette Nicole Brown) to stop PAMA and free the local inhabitants.

I'm still a bit perplexed by Minecraft Story Mode. Telltale always does exceptional work, but I always thought the whole appeal of Minecraft was building your own story with your friends. Check the press release below for more details, pricing and bundle information.
