Why don’t we add rtx Minecraft to Xbox series X/S?

Minecraft hasnt been updated for series x

You have to wait for the upcoming RTX UPDATE which left beta in dec

Yes I’m sure I got the series s the day it came out. I traded the slim in for a series s as I don’t want the series x

Thank you for the response!

I have some clarifying questions. First, let me make certain that we have had the X-Box One S for quite some time and only recently purchased the Series S. Therefore, my account and the gamepass sub are tied to the One S.

1. If I make the Series S my new main X-Box, will my children not be able to benefit from Gamepass on the One S?

2. Is Minecraft multiplayer restricted to Gold sub members? And that is why my wife cannot play on the realm?

3. Is there a simple solution that allows my whole family to benefit from Gamepass with multiple XBox consoles within one home? We will likely be adding another Series S or Series X at some point, is each console supposed to have its own subscription?

Worth also noting if it says X/S on the title picture it means it’s optimised for series X and S not that it’s only compatible with X or S. most games will work on Xbox One too. I’m not aware of any exclusive to X or S games at all at the moment (don’t quote me on that)

Ok so only certain games will have ray tracing? Do you know if any games that were on the xbox one will be capable of it on the series s/x? Also I’ve seen videos showing the series X’s ray tracing abilities and they used minecraft as an example. Do you now
if this is real and if minecraft will support ray tracing or is this unconfirmed?

One of the main reasons I plan on buying one of the new consoles is for the ray tracing abilities (especially on minecraft)

Ray tracing has to be hard coded into the game either during development or post development with a patch. It is possible that some premium Xbox One titles may be given an RT patch for Series S/X we will wait and see.

Be aware, there are various types of RT. Ray traced shadows, RT global illumination and RT reflections are the main forms of Ray Tracing. I'm a PC gamer with an RTX 2080 graphics card and have been playing certain games with RT ON such as Metro Exodus, Control,
Wolfenstein Youngblood and of course, Minecraft. Raytracing is a 'feast for the eyes' certainly, but it's also very demanding on the hardware.

Yes, RT on Minecraft for Series X is real. But if and when it will be available, your guess is as good as mine. The footage seen was from a demo and the performance isn't that great.
