Vibrant Visuals option missing or non-functional on Xbox Series X

After installing the Minecraft Bedrock 1.21 "Chase the Skies" update on Xbox Series X, I received the update banner and saw the new background with Happy Ghasts. However, the new Vibrant Visuals feature is completely missing from the game.

There is no "Graphics Mode" or "Vibrant Visuals" option available under Settings → Video. This is true both from the main menu and inside worlds.

Earlier, I tested the Minecraft Preview version on the same console before the update, and the Vibrant Visuals option did appear in the settings. However, it had no effect on the visuals in-game (no noticeable changes in lighting or atmosphere).


Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Launch Minecraft Bedrock 1.21 on Xbox Series X.

  2. Open Settings → Video.

  3. Try to find the "Graphics Mode" or "Vibrant Visuals" option.


Expected Result:
The "Vibrant Visuals" graphics option should appear and be functional, as Xbox Series X/S is officially supported.

Actual Result:
No graphics mode toggle or Vibrant Visuals setting is shown. In Preview, the option was visible but had no effect.

The issue was resolved after enabling “Allow In-Game Graphics Mode Switching” in the main menu settings and opening the video settings from the title screen, not inside a world. Thank you!
