Minecraft Just Got Its Biggest Update in Years

Minecraft Just Got Its Biggest Update in Years

Byte-Sized Brief

  • Chase the Skies update launches today.
  • Vibrant Visuals available for Bedrock players.
  • The update also includes a new Happy Ghast flying mount.

Minecraft players are in for a busy day. The Chase the Skies update brings new tools and visual upgrades for Bedrock Edition users. The Happy Ghast is the star of the show; you can raise it from a dried block found (or crafted) in the Nether and then ride it with friends across the map. Also bundled in are new crafting features, better player-tracking tools, and a few extra music tracks to freshen things up.

If you’re on Bedrock Edition, you also get access to the new Vibrant Visuals feature. It’s a big graphical overhaul that adds better lighting, reflections, fog, and shadows to make every biome look more atmospheric. Java Edition players will have to wait for the visual boost, but the rest of today’s update is available across both platforms.

The Bottom Line

Chase the Skies launches with a flying mount, new tools, and upgraded visuals, but only Bedrock Edition players get the full glow-up for now.
