Let's talk about updated main menu (Bedrock)

Pinned

The latest Bedrock Preview introduces an updated main menu.

This release includes a refreshed layout, improved performance through a rebuilt UI system and an updated first-time accessibility setup experience.

We're continuing to evolve the main menu, with more improvements planned for future previews, including new ways to jump back into your worlds and discover new Minecraft experiences.

Let us know what you think in the comments!

  • How easy is it to get to where you want from the updated main menu?
  • Did you notice any performance improvements when opening or navigating the main menu?
Your feedback helps us understand what's working and where we can improve.

    我的世界不应该是广告游戏，主界面我的世界的标识没了，失去了灵魂，整个UI的设计也非常难看，希望官方重新换回原来的 UI

    Is this some kind of april fool's joke?

    Basically everything that is wrong with this UI was already said earlier, but seriously, main menu without "Minecraft" title? You can't be serious.

    Just roll back to the earlier version or use the java layout.

    If it isnt broken, dont fix it. You're going to ruin a good UI system with this. If this change goes through, im not playing bedrock edition anymore. You are ruining it for me Mojang.

    One of the main reasons I dislike this UI is because it isn't possible to customize using resource packs and this one specifically looks like the pause screen

    Minecraft logo should always be visible and switch Settings with Dressing room.

    Do that and I'll be more willing to like it.

    说白了，我的世界中国版的界面都比它好，基岩版的这个新界面的问题特别多，难看先不说，特别像暂停屏幕，Minecraft极具标志性的标识没了，整个界面看上去头重脚轻的没有一点灵魂

    If it ain't broke don't fix it, as long as it isn't coming to Java I don't care, but there is no need to revise the menu considering it's just going to bring more criticism to Bedrock edition as it becomes increasingly monetizable.

    Why Mojang, why?
    Like this is just awful. Seriously this is just horrible and makes it look like the Fortnite lobby or something. I get this might just be a situation of “you will get used to it” but no, this is such an iconic part of Minecraft even if it is just the title screen. Please just don’t do this and revert it or try and make a compromise. This just makes Minecraft look even more generic than it was.

    2nd time you've messed with the settings button, and it's once again been minimized to an irrelevant part of the screen where nothing is. Settings button should of stayed where it was, big and present. No need to hide it to a small button, when they're usually what people edit first on a new installation. The title should be restored on the menu, and generally how stylized the buttons were on the old menu. While I think that the idea of the Marketplace+Realms being accessible by scrolling down is a great idea, I think it should thus remove the marketplace button on the menu, and instead an indication should be set saying where the marketplace has gone. Dressing Room should of stayed under the player character, symbolizing what it means. Do not re-add the Realms button.

    Mojang, this is extremely predatory. I am not okay with oreUI because customization is a huge part of minecraft. That includes the home menu. And you replace the settings button for two marketplace buttons? Yall ain't that desperate. Keep JsonUI and forget oreUI. You are ruining minecraft for me.

    Over half the things on the menu are now just "give us more money." The settings button is hidden, and this completely destroys the unique identity that the menu has had for 15 years. Just stop trying to fix things that aren't broken.

    这是Mojang干过最傻逼的一件事，新 UI 里边加入广告，这是人能想出来的？

    I assume this change is being pushed on from Microsoft itself and much like the last time you tried this, this not only looks uglier than the current version, it's also a lot more useless and I advise you need to work on the other aspects of the UI around the menus rather than go for the simplest and most accessible ones. This attempt at decluttering the main menu is so bad the game can't even show the title theme. Work on decluttering the more complex menus than these. Nobody likes this.

    I'm sick of this monetization focused garbage

    Yet another reason why you don't find people saying; 'I prefer bedrock',

    it is only those limited by their platform that play it.

    There's so much empty space, the logo is missing, and the settings button needs to be bigger.  I can click past the annoying ads, but it reaches a point where I don't want to deal with it anymore.

    Summary: We don’t want this change. We love the main menu exactly how it is and don’t see any need to change it. Please leave it as it is.

    Please stop hiding the settings button, and bring back the Quit Game button.

    I don't like to be a downer but it really doesn't look at all nice or helpful. I feel like it's throwing functionality out for minimalism or monetization placements. Like seriously, has the whole "settings button being replaced by BROWSE ADDONS!!!" thing not taught anyone anything?

    Anyway, I hope this feedback's taken on board as I just don't think it's very good.

    In my opinion, the settings should always be have top visibility and accessibility in any UI change, almost as much as "play" or "continue" buttons. In this case, the settings button should be closer to play than the marketplace.

    Beyond this, I generally agree with most of the sentiment in this thread. I'd love for this to go back to the drawing board.

    While I do think this menu looks good, I have to note the similarities with cracked Minecraft Bedrock clients. The menu's pretty much the same as those, even having the logo hidden! It's a lot cleaner, and there's more adspace, which is nice if you want to make Bedrock free (which it should be at this point) but this layout makes it pretty much impossible to find pirates. That's all I gotta say, this menu's alright, just bring back the logo at the top

    I already quite enjoyed OreUI so far... but if it ships with this kind of Home Menu, then I would be very dissapointed.

    ADS in Bedrock are already very prevalent. I don't believe that it should receive more space in the Home Menu. If they wish to integrate more marketplace content advertising, then I believe they should find a less pervasive or more appealing way to do so, because shoving them in the Home Menu doesn't work.

    Looking forward to them revising the layout on this one :3

    I don't understand the redesign, everything is already accessible with the previous one, it looks a lot less cleaner than the previous one too. Everything about this change is just bad in my opinion, it would be better if you just kept the original one instead.

    This is an awful change that benefits absolutely nobody. Most people just want to play the game without having ads shoved in their face 24/7, and making the settings button less accessible is just flat out horrible design no matter who you ask, regardless of the choice to shove ads everywhere.

    The settings button should be under the play button, like any other videogame.

    The settings button being moved makes no sense in my opinion. It's now super easy to miss-click the marketplace menu (which to me feels intentional as a way to get people to buy things).

    Along with that, the menu just looks way too empty.

    Overall, I'm quite disappointed in this update. If this is how you're going to go about things I just wouldn't change it. Don't fix what isn't broken.

    I personally think its terrible. I feel like its trying to guide people towards the marketplace and dressing room both of which are heavily monetised. it just feels like advertising and as though its designed to make more money. another thing I don't like is the settings button being very small and right at the top, as if theyre pushing people away from that and trying to get people to click on the marketplace and dressing room which, again are heavily monetised. the Minecraft logo  which is a big part of what makes minecraft minecraft has been completely removed for no apparent reason and the menu now just has a lot of empty space. it feels like all the wrong things have been prioritised (for example putting the monetization buttons front and centre and completely removing the minecraft logo and shifting the settings button into a small corner.) making the menu now feel empty, ugly and devoid of life. it is somehow worse in every single way. If it works fine theres no reason to redesign it to look worse. before everything was accessible, and it looked somewhat nice, now its just bad. somehow theyve even managed to ruin the marketplace button, it was lively, interactive and interesting now its just another plain boring button that happens to lead to monetised content.

    Monetisation focused UI, disgusting behaviour and it reflects pooly on microsoft and mojang. I hate everything about it, theres nothing wrong with the current UI. You could ask the players what THEY want changed about the game and the main menu UI wouldnt be in the top 500 suggestions
