Why such speculations? Well, in the original game Ender Dragon is the final boss and one of its most distinctive elements. So it is possible that Microsoft is planning to create a spin-off to Minecraft centered around the famous beast.
There are also rumors that it could be about the canceled Scalebound series. However, this is less likely, given Ender Dragon's close ties to Minecraft.
