6. If you have automatic Windows Store updates enabled, Minecraft will automatically update to the latest available Minecraft with RTX Beta build. If you don’t, you’ll be prompted to download the build when you try to load the beta.

Congratulations, you now have the Minecraft with RTX Beta installed on your GeForce RTX PC or laptop!

Please note, this is an ongoing beta with a list of known issues - should you discover new ones, please send Microsoft and Mojang detailed feedback here.

Now, download the 6 free custom-made, path-traced, PBR texture-enhanced Creator Worlds from the Minecraft Marketplace, by searching for “RTX” (all RTX-capable worlds in the Marketplace are also tagged with a special RTX badge).

These Creator Worlds are designed to showcase the potential of Minecraft with RTX, and to demonstrate the new possibilities and techniques you can apply to your own creations.

Once you’ve got them installed, load Minecraft from your Windows 10 start menu, click Play, and load one of the ray-traced worlds.

If you wish to change your fullscreen resolution, you’ll need to change your desktop resolution in Windows, and in windowed mode you’ll need to resize the window as you would any other.

For optimum performance, we recommend playing in fullscreen mode at 1920x1080 with the ray tracing chunk distance set to 8, though on more powerful machines, and less performance-intensive worlds, your CPU and GPU may allow you to crank up the chunk distance.
