Minecraft accidentally adds Xbox Series X feature early

After rolling out a Minecraft Preview build that allowed Xbox Series X|S players to enable ray tracing in the game, Microsoft has announced the feature was included as a mistake and removed its support.

Players could enable the next-gen feature by downloading the Minecraft Preview build – a test version of the game that includes upcoming features, and is available for Xbox Insider members. As reported by The Verge, by toggling a ray tracing option found in the game’s video settings, you could activate the advanced lighting mode.
