This might upset some Windows 10 (Edit Aug 21st, 4pm EDT: I meant Windows 7… Windows 10 users will only be upset at creepers and endermen) users, but it will be especially annoying to those who game on Linux, which would otherwise be able to see the light. In fact, NVIDIA wrote LWJGL bindings for their VK_NVX_raytracing and SPV_NVX_raytracing APIs to bring RTX support to Java. The very atmosphere and worlds of the game change with RTX. The DirectX 12-branded DXR API is not the only way to access NVIDIA’s hardware. Nvidias RTX Ray Tracing does a stellar job of breathing new life into the tried and true game, Minecraft. Of course, Minecraft for Java could theoretically support RTX. Speaking of the Java version – RTX is (as far as we know) not coming to it. I don’t know how extensible Minecraft for Windows 10 is compared to Minecraft for Java, which was massive.

They are otherwise keeping the same assets, so it will still have the blocky and pixelated look that you’re used to. This will help increase the quality of water, metals, and environments with colored materials.

On Monday, Microsoft and NVIDIA announced that Minecraft for Windows 10 will be getting an RTX update.
