Minecraft PE 1.16.200 for Android

A new release of Minecraft PE 1.16.200 has been released with a large number of new fixes and changes. The long-awaited Render Dragon, RayTracing, and Open XR are the next step into the modern graphics of the Minecraft world. Let's take a closer look at all the features of the full update.

The first thing we will draw your attention to is the Render Dragon.

What it is? For those who do not know, this is a new graphic engine that increases the performance of the game. This engine was added for Playstation and X-box back in 2019. But already in this version, we added support for Windows 10. In the future plans of the developers to add Render Dragon to mobile devices.


The next game aspect that affects the graphics of the game is RayTracing. Using the Render Dragon engine, ray tracing was added to Minecraft. This is a rare and in its own way unique technology in computer graphics. To test this technology in-game, the player needs an RTX-enabled graphics card.

New Features of In-Game Volume Settings

Players can now change the volume of certain different sounds. By moving the slider, the player can hear the sound and its volume. These features allow the player to customize the sound and game completely for themselves.

Do you know something about Open XR?

For those who do not know, this is a free standard of access to platforms and devices of virtual reality and augmented reality. The good news is that Minecraft has moved and will continue to move to the OpenXR standard to support WindowsMR mixed reality and OculusVR support. You can run the game in Open XR mode on Windows using a special command: minecraft:// mode /? OpenXR = true
