Minecraft: Nintendo Switch 2 Edition

The Nintendo Switch 2 has been around for more than a month ago. And there is still no “Switch 2 Edition” of Minecraft Bedrock. I know it isn’t easy to port a game to a newer system which there is almost no documentation of. Tough the game is playable trough the proprietary Nintendo Switch Compatibility layer that the Switch 2 offers. Its still not perfect. So i wanted to suggest some things for this upcoming upgrade.

The Switch 2 is 10 times more performant than the Switch 1 as Nintendo officially stated, so it definitely can handle Vibrant Visuals and can handle up to 32 chunks 

Achievements should share Between Switch and Switch 2 editions

The upgrade pack should be free for Minecraft For Nintendo Switch users 

The Switch 1 was underpowered since its release back in 2017, that made the game launched fine, but got unstable as updates arrived, with bugs, graphic issues, slow load times, and random logouts

-System integration

- Mouse Mode

The Joy-Con 2  have a Mouse sensor on their side, this could enable Mouse aim, giving more parity with the PC edition

- Gyro-Aim 

Similar to Mouse mode this can enable precise aiming to the game without the use of Mouse control. This could also be implemented on Switch 1, PS4 and PS5 as both controllers for these platforms include a Gyroscope sensor 

- GameChat 

This feature exclusive for the Nintendo Switch 2 Systems allows users to connect and voice chat. The implementation on Minecraft could add a camera view right next to the username of a player.

    I think this would be a great thing for switch 2 users like myself. I typically play the ps5 version but I love Minecraft and when on the go use the switch version almost as much so getting an upgrade pack or even a whole new switch 2 version would be awesome for myself and probably most other switch 2 Minecraft players

    This version could have external keyboard and Joy-Con 2 mouse support.

    Going through the settings atm, the option is there on Minecraft, it's just greyed out and labeled "Vibrant Visuals require a supported device and compatible Marketplace content" It seems like all they have to do is update the game on switch 2 to enable these features considering they are right there in the settings already waiting to be switched on.

    Yes please! I would love to be able to run more of the add ons and worlds from the marketplace, but the current Switch version of Minecraft often crashes, even when playing on realms or servers.

    This NEEDS to happen! I want better performance on the Nintendo Switch 2, 120FPS, higher render distance, and vibrant visuals support is a MUST for me! We need Mojang to seriously consider this!!!

    This should definitely happen because I want my Nintendo Switch 2 to be able to play Minecraft with vibrant visuals

    The game needs it. Someone commented is a dumb idea? what about minecraft for ps5 if it exist or not, the switch 1 edition is so limited it has 12 chunk render distance on a console that has 12 GB RAM!
