Good things are worth waiting for

Minecraft players have finally received a detailed view of the Vibrant Visuals update, which will be coming to the Bedrock edition.

The feature was the focus of the latest Minecraft Live update that took place earlier on March 22. Vibrant Visuals was one of the three major talking points from the Live event, and it’s the sole one that focuses on the graphical side of things.

Can you try out Vibrant Visuals in Minecraft?

While the eagerness of the community is completely understandable, there’s no possible way to turn on Vibrant Visuals at the time of writing. The enhanced graphics will be part of a future update, according to Mojang, so you will have to hold tight.

Until the update officially goes live in the latter months, there’s no other way to try it out. For now, you’ll have to stick with the old look. The update will also come to the Java version of the game after it’s available on the Bedrock Edition.

When will Vibrant Visuals become available in Minecraft?

Mojang hasn’t given us an exact date. Vibrant Visuals was showcased with contents of the second major update planned for 2025. It’s not part of Sthe pring to Life content, which is why you can’t enjoy the enhanced graphics right just yet in the game.

I am expecting it to be released around June or July. It will be the peak of summer and a nice time for Mojang to drop the next major update it. We should get more information closer to the release date.
