The latest Minecraft Preview has officially gone live and while the focus was meant to be on the new Armadillo mob, there's something even more exciting for Xbox fans.

This latest preview (Version 1.20.60.23) adds 4K resolution support for the Xbox Series consoles. Here's the official note from the Changelog about this:
