Since the 1.21.80 update, I’ve noticed a sudden drop in performance on Minecraft for Xbox Series S, especially in very specific situations that did not happen in version 1.21.72. My main issues are:
1. FPS drops when interacting with signs or opening the chat: These actions used to be smooth and instant. Now they cause noticeable stuttering that disrupts gameplay.
2. Significant performance drop when receiving Xbox notifications or opening the system interface (guide): The FPS drop is very noticeable and impacts playability.
3. This did not occur in version 1.21.72, where the performance was stable and smooth.
This problem seems to have been introduced specifically with version 1.21.80. I would really appreciate it if the development team could look into this, as it affects the overall fluidity of the game on console—even on capable hardware like the Series S.
Thank you for your time and for continuing to improve the game.
