Senior Editor of the Verge, Tom Warren, found evidence of Ray Tracing capabilities for Xbox Series S/X Minecraft games in a Minecraft Preview that is currently only available for Xbox Insider members. While this news is certainly exciting, it still appears to be very early in the works and is still far from being sophisticated or streamlined.

There's no telling when these capabilities will be added to the game, but some fans speculate it could be as soon as the next patch. Many Minecraft fans have expected Ray Tracing to be added to the Xbox version of the game for quite a while, so to see a confirmation has been quite exciting for the community. Minecraft nor Xbox has confirmed any of the details surrounding Ray Tracing in Minecraft on Xbox Series S/X.
