Minecraft has been a thing for over a decade now. In fact, if you consider the years that the game was in its alpha and beta stages, it has now been over 15 years. The game is available on many different consoles, including the Nintendo Switch, and there has been updated versions released, including Minecraft: Bedrock Edition. There is also a movie coming out in theaters in less than 2 weeks from now.
Meanwhile, Mojang has been continuing their support for the game itself. In fact, they announced a new update that contains content that fans have been asking for many years. The update, which is called “Vibrant Visuals”, will give the game a graphic overhaul for the very first time. It will add “updated textures, directional lighting, volumetric fog, and much more”. It is also apparently the start of a plan Mojang has to fulfill their vision for Minecraft’s future.
It is slated to release in the coming months, and it will eventually be available on both Java Edition and Bedrock Edition. It is worth noting, however, that it won’t be rolled out to everyone all at once. Bedrock Edition will get it first, but only on “compatible devices”. It will come to Java Edition later on. You can see the official announcement video about the matter down below.
