Ray tracing in Minecraft: Bedrock Edition is absolutely stunning! It gives you incredibly realistic lighting, shadows, and reflections thanks to the technology being built on the RenderDragon graphics engine. Here's the critical requirement and the steps: ### 1. The Critical Hardware Requirement You must have a PC running Windows 10 or 11 with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX graphics card (or a comparable ray-tracing-capable AMD card, though the implementation varies) to run the official Microsoft/NVIDIA-supported ray tracing. This is a hardware limitation—standard graphics cards simply cannot handle the processing load. ### 2. How to Enable It 1. Ensure Graphics Drivers are Updated: Go to your GPU manufacturer's website (NVIDIA/AMD) and make sure your drivers are the latest version. 2. Install Minecraft: Download and install Minecraft for Windows (which is the Bedrock edition) from the Microsoft Store. 3. Download an RTX World/Resource Pack: You can't just flip a switch; you need a PBR (Physically Based Rendering) Texture Pack to see the effect. * Go to the Minecraft Marketplace in the game. * Search for "RTX" or "Ray Tracing." * Download a free or paid Creator World or a RTX-compatible Resource Pack. The official NVIDIA ones are often the best starting point. 4. Launch the World: Apply the resource pack and open the world. Ray Tracing should automatically engage, and you'll immediately see the difference! If you don't meet the hardware requirement, you're out of luck for the official ray tracing.

You need a Windows 10/11 edition with RTX-compatible GPU. Go to Settings → Video → Ray Tracing → Turn on. Some worlds require downloading RTX-enabled resource packs. Check the official Minecraft RTX guide for details.
