Showcased at [[Minecraft Live 2020]], it is the second {{MCD|Season Pass}} DLC after {{MCD|Howling Peaks}}.

== Appearance ==
[[File:FlamesOfTheNetherMap.png|thumb|300px|The small continent where Flames of the Nether takes place.]]
Flames of the Nether is based on the [[The Nether|Nether]] dimension in the [[Minecraft|main game]] where [[lava]] can be found everywhere. The hero starts at the north of the map, in the [[MCD:Nether Wastes|nether wastes]] mission. Nether wart forests can be found to the west of it where [[Fungus|fungi]] and vines grow wildly. The cyan and mysterious one is called the [[MCD:Warped Forest|warped forest]] while the bloody and red one is called the [[MCD:Crimson Forest|crimson forest]]. A [[MCD:Basalt Deltas|huge volcano]] lies in the south made up of [[blackstone]] as well as large [[basalt]] pillars dotting its surface. Snowflake-like ash covers this region, making it identical to the [[Snowy Tundra]]. In the far east, there is a large [[MCD:Soul Sand Valley|valley]] made of soul related blocks, as well as mysterious fossils. A colossal [[MCD:Nether Fortress|fortress]] is built right above the lava sea in the center of the Nether.

== Trivia ==
* During the concept art phase for the Flames of the Nether, the developers made up over a hundred pages of concept art including everything from general coloring to new plants, props, armor, and weapons that fit with the environments.<ref>https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/back-nether</ref>
* A screenshot taken from [[Minecraft Live 2020]] displays a {{MCD|Soul Sand Valley}} biome, the [[info_update]] block, a internal block in [[Bedrock Edition]], can be seen among the soul sand.
* In a video posted by the Minecraft Dungeons Twitter account, the [[MCD:Twisting Vine Bow|twisting vine bow]] and the [[MCD:Weeping Vine Bow|weeping vine bow]] can be seen, being the first two new items revealed for the DLC.<ref>{{tweet|dungeonsgame|1338514158875185158|Did you really think we’d leave you out in the cold this season, how about Arctic Fox Armor to keep you warm? Get ready! The new Chills and Thrills seasonal event arrives Dec 18 and ends Dec 30 – with frosty Seasonal Trials promising unique items worthy of this sub-zero shindig!|December 14, 2020}}</ref>
* There is a statue in the Nether Fortress that depicts the [[MINECON Earth 2017#Mob D|Wildfire]], a mob that lost the Mob Vote during [[MINECON Earth 2017]]. When this DLC originally came out, the Wildfire was available in the game files but did not spawn as it was not finished in time for the update, but since the Luminous Night update it has been added and one even spawns as part of the ambush surrounding this statue.
* Although [[Wither Skeleton]]s in [[Minecraft]] don't spawn with [[Bow]]s naturally, they do here in the form of the [[MCD:Wither Skeleton Archer|wither skeleton archer]], which are equipped with the [[Red Snake]].
* There were some noticeable differences in this DLC compared to features from the [[Minecraft]]:
** [[MCD:Piglin|Piglins]] and [[MCD:Wither Skeleton|wither skeletons]] do not attack each other.
** Piglins are not afraid of soul fire and [[MCD:Zombified Piglin|zombified piglins]].
** Zombified piglins attack the hero immediately on sight.
** Wither skeletons and zombified piglins are not immune to fire.
** Piglins and zombified piglins can be found in the [[MCD:Warped Forest|Warped Forest]], [[MCD:Basalt Deltas|Basalt Deltas]], [[MCD:Soul Sand Valley|Soul Sand Valley]], and the [[MCD:Nether Fortress|Nether Fortress]] despite not spawning in those places in the main ''Minecraft'' game.
** There are no adult [[MCD:Hoglin|hoglins]].
* [[Strider]] sounds can be heard throughout the Warped Forest mission, similar to the [[MCD:Vulture|vulture]] sounds in the {{MCD|Cacti Canyon}}.
