Updated "You Died" Experience

In the latest Bedrock update (1.20.30) we’ve made some changes to the “You died” screen. The camera now zooms out so it’s easier to see why you died, the hotbar is visible at all times, and you can change certain settings before respawning.

These changes are available to everyone, except if you have add-ons applied. Also, the screen has limited text formatting code support, so it might look a bit different. To use the old screen, go to Settings -> Video, and turn off ‘New “You Died” Screen (Experimental)’.

We’d love to hear your thoughts on this new design! Let us know in the comments — what do you think?

Also, if you find any bugs, make sure to report them on the Bug Tracker. Thank you!

    Please make the old "You Died" screen option a permanent change. I understand that Minecraft Bedrock is making the switch to become more modern, but many players, including myself, still appreciate the old death screen.

    My 8 year old boy Ben HATES IT. But beyond 'it's different' cannot explain what specifically he hates, why he hates it, or what changes he would like to see you make so that he won't hate it...

    I like that, but it would also be helpful if there was some way to find where you died. Something that helps find it to get stuff back.

    I really like the new "You Died" screen, however, we still need the ability to access the Chat when we die. When we die right now, we can still open chat and talk to people on n SMP, and see our coordinates at the top of the Chat Box. On the new screen, we have no ability to get into chat or see the coordinates of where we died.

    This feature is totally useless, because even if you have a simple resource pack enabled, it won't work. Please if you're going to make it official, make it possible to use resource packs with it too.

    I love it! I wish I could use it while having add-ons enabled, like global resources for example.

    Like the other user said, I also feel like "game menu" should be in bold and capital, so it's consistent with the "RESPAWN" one

    I would like it, if coordinates are turned on at the time, that they *stay* on-screen even after death. I cannot *TELL* you how many times I've died and I can't find my way back to get my things. -_-*

    I like the old you died experience. I begging for the classic you died experience because I don't like the New You died experience.

    If you have immediate respawn on with this new death screen, if another player that joins the world dies multiple times, their screen will turn black.

    hello. Anyways i like the new death screen, It didnt really need to be changed but in this case it didnt hurt to have a nice refresh of some things. The option to keep the old death screen in the settings i feel like would be nice to keep around aswell. I like it so far and havent had any bugs relating to it. Thank you.

    It’s cool, but instead of making the game look slightly better, you should add a dead zone slider for console. Dead zone is the amount of distance you have to move the stick before it registers movement. This setting is essentially in all games with a sensitivity slider and I have no clue why it’s not already in this game. On PlayStation there is no deadzone and on Xbox it is way to large and takes away all precision for pvp, placing blocks, shooting arrows, and anything that takes precision . For PlayStation players, without this slider stick drift becomes a real issue and makes the game unplayable. A slider would fix both issues. This a simple settings for controller that should have always been in the game.

    It looks really nice but you should add a spot on the map to show where you died so it will be easier to find you items instead of losing all the items in your inventory

    It looks terrible, but I wouldn't mind... if the option to change back to the original was still available. Why the hell would you get rid of that? That's completely unacceptable, you need to fix it
