Vibrant Visuals is our upcoming visual upgrade that might change the way you look at your Minecraft worlds forever! Here's a first look!

We're planning to bring Vibrant Visuals to Java sometime in the future but it will first be available on compatible Bedrock devices in the coming months.

This looks cool, hopefully this upgrade makes it to consoles sooner than later

 

[alphachino]

just got back into mc. java edition or nothing though. bedrock sucks imo

 

[CoreyFlawless]

When this suppose to launch?

 

[RoboFu]

Stupid and why? Talk about trying to fix something that wasn't broke.

Agreed, but no worries OptiFine_HD mod works well even on a potato laptop (AMD Ryzen 5 Pro 4650U in my) and has decent MC visuals for me when my youngest needs me to help her with something on her papermc (Spigot based) java server running on Raspberry Pi400

Slightly annoying you'd have to run an older build of paper mc 1.20.4 IIRC currently for OptiFine mod as it needs ported each time, AFAIK, but I think the new bedrock look isn't as good as optifine on my workstation with all the features turned on, and is probably only on par with these potato shots.

Looks good but whatever happened to the RT release?

 

[FeralEcho]

Not that impressive looking,what happened to the rtx stuff?

This time it better release

Looks good but whatever happened to the RT release?

That was silently canned about three years after it was announced

Edit: I may be thinking of the 4k texture/lighting pack they announced back when the xbox one x was revealed

 

[Hookshot]

Is this how they sell it again on Switch 2?

It does say compatible bedrock devices are the priority. That would imply the XSX and PS5

 

[Griffon]

Man... the codebase of that game must be an epic mess...

 

[Rockondevil]

Hope it comes to the Series S because my kid would like this, but I won't hold my breath.
I just have Java on PC so shaders are easy.

It looks worse. Games with simplistic graphics like Minecraft don't need all of that. In fact, their graphics will always look best without it.
