Now you can render Minecraft: Java Edition through RTX Remix, transforming worlds with DLSS-accelerated path tracing.

How to Install

  • Extract the whole archive to a folder. Running the installer from inside the zip file does not work.
  • Double-click install.bat. Do not right-click and run it as administrator. The installer writes to your own user folders and refuses to run elevated.
  • The installer opens a menu and preselects the right action for what is already on your machine: Install, Upgrade, or Repair. Press Enter to accept it. Upgrade and Repair keep the launcher that already has the mod and skip the launcher question; to use the other launcher, choose Install instead.
  • Answer the launcher question. With Prism and no Microsoft launcher on the machine, the installer uses Prism without asking. Prism Launcher is the recommended choice: the installer uses the Prism you already have, or downloads a portable copy if you have none, and creates a separate instance either way, so your existing game, worlds, and settings are untouched. The Microsoft launcher is the official one you already use, and the mod then shares the same game folder and the same worlds as your normal play.
  • The installer opens the launcher when it finishes. If it cannot, open it yourself.

How to Run RTX Remix

  • In Minecraft Launcher, on the 'Minecraft: Java Edition' tab: choose 'NVIDIA RTX Remix for Minecraft' from the installation list, and hit 'Play'

Note: on the very first launch, RTX Remix compiles its shaders before showing the world (one time only). See First Launch.

Requirements

  • Windows 10 or 11, x64 or ARM64.
  • Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.1, on a Microsoft account that owns the game.
  • A GeForce RTX 30-series or newer GPU with NVIDIA driver 616.92 or newer.
  • About 5 GB of free disk space while installing, for the downloaded archive, the game, Java, and the unpacked runtime. About 3 GB stays in use afterwards.
  • An internet connection while the installer runs.
  • 16 GB of system memory is recommended.
  • Java 21, Fabric, and the RTX Remix runtime are installed for you.
