As for the "Vibrant Visuals" upgrade, Mojang is touting a visual refresh that will let players see firsthand how lights and shadows affect the Minecraft world.
"Soar with your merry ghast, watch the sunrise reflected on the sparkling sea, create art with shifting shadows, dive into the dark depths, or just sit back and admire the vivid beauty of each biome," the studio said. “With updated in-game visuals, you’ll see how light and shadow transform the overworld—water reflections, forests changing, mist drifting, and waterfalls sparkling in the light.”
Devices currently supported by Vibrant Visuals include Xbox Series
Unfortunately, at least for now, the Vibrant Vision upgrade is only available in Bedrock Edition of Minecraft. Mojang says it plans to bring visual upgrades to Minecraft Java Edition later, but no information or release date has been announced yet.
