Desert Temple is the eighth mainland mission in Minecraft Dungeons. It is unlocked after the completion of Cacti Canyon, and completing Desert Temple unlocks Highblock Halls if Fiery Forge has also been completed.

It always generates the Lower Levels optional sub dungeon that contains a scroll which, if collected, unlocks the Lower Temple secret mission. Desert Temple is counted as a boss mission for Apocalypse Plus progression, due to it containing the Nameless One.

Desert Temple is the hallmark of an "ancient, nameless kingdom" and consists of rooms and corridors made of sand-covered stone bricks that feature illuminated water pools, chains, decorated pots and carpet, palm trees, and cobwebs. Dangerous traps like crushers, spike traps, and metal blades are scattered around the temple, all of which can heavily damage heroes and knock them into chasms. A yellow locked gateway blocks the path near the start of the mission, requiring a gold key golem to be collected from an area to the south-east. Near the key golem, a lever hidden behind some foliage can be activated to reveal the entrance door of Desert Temple Rune Room.^{[note 1]} Near the end of the mission, the Nameless One can be found surrounded by five kneeling vanguards, resting atop a stone structure after having broken the alliance with the Arch-Illager in the time since the events of The Rise of the Arch-Illager novel. After defeating the Nameless One, heroes can travel to the exit of the temple to the north-west.
