Minecraft has partnered with Hasbro again to release the Nerf Sabrewing Bow based on Minecraft Dungeons’ unique weapon. Minecraft Dungeons is Minecraft’s hack-and-slash spin-off game that was released in 2020, and it offers a different take on the voxel world’s previous sandbox mechanics. The top-down action RPG has since launched several post-launch DLCs including the Echoing Void expansion and the game’s first season adventure, titled Cloudy Climb Tower.
Minecraft and Hasbro have teamed up before, having launched a line of Nerf blasters inspired by the voxel-based franchise. The Minecraft Nerf guns included the block-breaking pillager’s crossbow and the Stormlander hammer from Minecraft Dungeons. Each one came with a set of Nerf elite darts, which have a shorter tip plug and are said to be more accurate than their standard dart predecessors. The Nerf blasters were released in late November, around the same time Hasbro unveiled its line of Nerf MicroShots that featured the Minecraft Ender Dragon, Minecraft Guardian, and Minecraft Ghast mobs.

The Minecraft Dungeons Sabrewing Bow releases in August of this year and comes with a clip of Nerf darts and game-accurate design – without having to loot mobs in the Fiery Forge or spend money at the Camp merchant.
