Telltale Games’ episodic adventure based on Mojang’s Minecraft will let players choose their own version of the game’s playable character, Jesse, from a variety of male and female options. The option to do so in Minecraft: Story Mode is something of a first for Telltale, which typically has players assume the role of a pre-determined character.
