When Minecraft launched on the Nintendo Switch in May, many users were disappointed to find that the resolution was capped to 720p in docked mode. Seeing as how the Switch natively supports 1080p while sitting comfortably in its dock, people expected Minecraft to support it with no problem. Today, Minecraft’s getting a resolution bump.
A patch pushed today fixes a lot of bugs, but most importantly, it allows the game to run at 1080p while docked. We’ve listed the full change log below.
- Added Canyon, a free Glide track.
- Added Biome Settlers 2 Skin pack.
- Added Terracotta and Glazed Terracotta layers to Tumble.
- Enable 1080p display when placed in the Nintendo Switch Dock.
- Improved performance in Solo Glide when restarting the level (particularly with split-screen spectators).
- Totem of Undying now also applies Fire Resistance II.
