Minecraft has been around on Xbox for years now, but it seems some players aren't happy with how the game has been handled.
A rant has skyrocketed to the top of the Xbox Series X Reddit page, claiming "Minecraft on Xbox is such a joke". The reasons include lengthy load times, a lack of Auto HDR and Quick Resume, 1080p resolution, and a buggy storefront.
Many other users have been quick to agree, but remain optimistic some changes will arrive in the near future following the Java and Bedrock edition joining Xbox Game Pass for PC earlier today.
The consensus seems to be disappointment at the lack of console optimisation for the game - especially when Mojang is a first-party Xbox studio now. It also seems the mobile version of the game runs better than the console version, further adding to the frustration.
Whether any improvements do come remains to be seen, but with a large and vocal community, hopefully, their voices are heard.

I saw that thread pop up in popularity last night and scrolled through the comments and cringed out of the app. I get constructive criticism. On the other side, if you aren't having fun or liking what you are doing, we can play other games and enjoy other hobbies.
Minecraft looks boring...
If there was nothing to bi+ch about, people would bi+ch about "nothing to bi+ch about"
I always just stick to the old console versions of Minecraft, you know, the "For Xbox" or "For Nintendo Switch" editions. They just seem to work a lot better, especially offline.
I am VERY surprised the game isn't optimized for Series X/S.
We saw that Ray Tracing demo running on Series X hardware last year, but nothing ever came of it.
I wonder if Mojang are too spread too thin supporting new content for various platforms? Who knows...
Well, I played Minecraft on my friend’s Xbox One (Bedrock Edition) and it kept black screening a lot.
Well, I have Minecraft on my Nintendo Switch ( and I had a lot of fun with it) and it works perfectly fine
If they think it is bad there, they should play the Switch version...
@blinx01 Minecraft RTX could run on the Xbox Series X, but it is full of glitches. Horses that don't wear armor are black, text behind tinted glass is not tinted, snow golem heads are misaligned from their bodies in reflections, etc. I think the problem is Mojang is a small studio and their hands are full with the cave update. They should get support from an external studio to fix the RTX bugs and then add AMD FSR support to improve performance. An Xbox Series X patch is long overdue and even the FPS on my base Xbox One is much worse on 1.17 than it used to be.
I kinda miss the old 'console version' because it was far more optimized and responsive. I guess it's still included but now abandoned. The bedrock edition is so janky, buggy, and slow. All they care about is that messy integrated store filled with overpriced garbage.
