Best capes in Minecraft Dungeons

5) Red Royal Cape

This cape is simple, but elegant. The red color is great and the gold trim makes a nice addition. It's the original design of the Hero Cape, so it's not currently available in the game.

The Hero Cape is one of the best capes in the game, and a stellar redesign of the Red Royal Cape. "A cape fit for heroes who are brave enough to face off against the Arch-Illager." This cape is available from the Hero Edition of the game, the Hero Pass, the Ultimate Edition and the Ultimate DLC Bundle.

2) Iron Golem Cape

1) Sinister Cape

The Sinister Cape is both the best and probably the most popular in the game. "Old and torn, this cape struggles to keep up with the wind." This cape was given as a reward for the game hitting 10 million players, so many Minecraft Dungeons players already have it.
