After release, the old textures will be available as a separate download. The new current new textures beta pack can be downloaded through this link.[2]
1.14
1.14 is an upcoming major update with no set release date. The theme has not been revealed yet, but it will introduce many new stairs and slabs[3], update either the taiga, savanna or desert biome, decided on during MINECON Earth 2018,[4] but will not overhaul combat.[5][6]
1.15 and 1.16
1.15 and 1.16 are upcoming major updates that are planned to be released at an undetermined time after 1.14. The details of this updates alone have not yet been revealed, aside from that one of them will revisit combat, and the other gameplay mechanics.[7][8] A new "Super Fancy" graphics setting is also planned.[9]
Bedrock Edition
1.7
1.7 is an upcoming major update for Bedrock Edition with no set release date which will add features such as a /scoreboard command and the ability to eat food in Creative mode and Peaceful difficulty.
4K Update
The 4K Update is an upcoming aesthetical update for Bedrock Edition with no set release date. It will add a 4K HDR graphics option. The Super Duper Graphics Pack will be added to the marketplace at the same time.[10]
The update is delayed and will not be coming out anytime soon due to some internal issues.
| “ | Minecraft developer here. The Graphics Team is still hard at work on this (it ended up being a ton more work than initially anticipated). The graphics part of our engine was quite honestly simply not built for this, and when we tried to put all the new features in piece by piece things went bad. Performance, even on the Xbox One X, was between bad and inconsistent during all the internal play sessions we had.
It will come, but we don't have a date yet. The gameplay team has been hard at work on the Update Aquatic, while the rest of the Engine team has been working on the Switch release alongside fixing performance issues on Xbox One. Those fixes are much closer than Super Duper :)[11] |
