Minecraft News: Render dragon and NVIDIA ray tracing (A new engine and a new way to experience Minecraft! )

I just hope Minecraft is one of those Microsoft games that does end up on Steam so that mods / workshop support are a thing. At least the W10 version runs better on my Amd hardware than the java version.
This is off topic but I noticed Minecraft is the ONLY Xbox One X game that doesn't make the fan go spinning.
It's completely silent, no other game does that, so I imagined the hardware is half asleep all the time?
On Xbox? Possible.
On Playstation? If they'll ever get the crossplay compatible version, maybe.
MS already confirmed RT for Scarlett and it'll probably be in PS5 as well. Not to mention, by then, $300 RT cards will be on the market
What resource pack is being used there?I'm sure there will be options for tweaking, but as is, I prefer the look of SEUS PTGI. The RTX crepuscular rays kinda wash out the image, while modded Minecraft is vibrant as hell.
Thanks but I already use PTGI and know what it looks like (I'm also very familiar with the ~35 FPS I get on my 1070 lol but it's worth it), I just wanted to know the resource pack :)That's ChromaHills.
Just for fun, here's one with vanilla textures
But if there's no extensive library of mods, then why would I want it?
To me, Java Minecraft will always be the 'real' Minecraft, no matter how much they polish the newer version.

Just saw this in person - it has so many more effects and plausible behaviour than even Seus PTGI. Amazing Stuff.
They are actually path traced volumetrics, it is nuts.I'm sure there will be options for tweaking, but as is, I prefer the look of SEUS PTGI. The RTX crepuscular rays kinda wash out the image, while modded Minecraft is vibrant as hell.
Ehh still the reflections are the most impressive thing. The lighting we have seen games that mimic that for years.
But also it just seems shady all together that very old or simple looking games are used to try to make us go " wow what a difference!!"
Of course it's going to be a huge difference... now do the same with a game like AC oddessy or FFxv .. then we will see how much better it is.

the problem is they have incredibly intricate lighting setups that has to be stripped down and rebuilt form scratch. of course starting with games with more rudimentary lighting set ups will be easier. once next gen consoles are in full force, we should, hopefully, start seeing games built ground up for RT. well, that and Unity getting finalized RT support, and AMD/Intel jumping into the game
Has there been any sort of info on when we can expect this to be released or even a beta? I hate it when they announce shit so early and then cancel it 2 years later (not that I'm saying that will happen here).
Looks mighty impressive, but on my non-RT hardware I'm excited for the new renderer combined with the subtle adds you can spot in the video (like what appears to be normal maps or parallax occlusion mapping on the tile textures, even without RT that should be a nice way to pop some more depth into the scene).
Oh boy this is crazy exciting. I haven't been this hyped for MC in years.
That narrator pretending this shit looks good is hilarious. Omg specular highlights on a square block! lol
try Raytracing a square block in blender or 3D max and you'd know how this is amazing it's in real-time
So is this PC only?
This level of quality for lighting needs to be in every game going forward. It's marvelous. It makes everything feel so much more real.
