The Tower is the twelfth mainland mission in Minecraft Dungeons. It is unlocked after the completion of Squid Coast, and completing The Tower does not unlock any missions.

The Tower is a tall, sprawling structure reaching far above the clouds. It is composed of many tower floors, is made up of marble and acacia wood, and is populated with leaves, windows, and balconies. It can be accessed using a door found north-west of the mission select table within Camp, as well as from the mainland tab on the mission select map. The Tower can have 30, 28, 27, 25, 22, 21, or 18 floors, and contains ambushes, boss battles, and merchants.

The first floor of The Tower is always Empty Floor, a room featuring a fountain in the center, windows, hanging lamps, four water pools, bookshelves, and flower pots. No mobs can spawn here, the door to the next floor can be found to the north-west, and no rewards are received for completing this floor. All of the following floors are determined by the given tower layout, aside from the final floor which is always Top Floor. Most of the floors in The Tower are combat floors, which can be one of many different variants and always contain an ambush of mobs.

At the end of each combat floor and boss floor, an enchantment point is received and one of five items, or alternatively an extra enchantment point, can be chosen to be taken to the next floor. Choosing an item replaces the corresponding item that is currently equipped, and if the selected item is an artifact it can be specified which currently-equipped artifact will be replaced.

Mechant floors and boss floors can be found between groups of combat floors. Merchant floors can be one of three variants: Powersmith Merchant Floor, Uniquesmith Merchant Floor, or Gildsmith Merchant Floor. They contain tower merchants that can upgrade the power of a piece of gear, make a piece of gear into a unique variant, or gild a piece of gear respectively. Boss Floor is typically (but not always) found directly after the merchant floors, and contains an ambush with one or two powerful mobs, or a boss fight with one boss mob. If that boss mob is the Tempest Golem or Ancient Guardian, different tower floor types are used instead, being Tempest Golem Boss Floor and Ancient Guardian Boss Floor respectively.

Top Floor is the final floor of The Tower and, like Boss Floor, contains one to two powerful mobs or one boss mob. An exit door can be found to the north-west in Top Floor which, if entered, ends the mission. Completion of The Tower provides a choice of reward between three high-power gilded items. Getting a game over earlier in the mission also provides a choice between a number of items equal to the boss floors that have been completed, however said items will have a decreased power level based on the number of completed floors, and at lower floors will not be gilded.
