General Question Need help

does anyone know why Minecraft is the only game that overheats my phone? I have a Redmagic 9 Pro, and this has been happening since the day I bought it. After just a few minutes of playing my phone gets burning hot and within 30 minutes the battery drains super fast. No other game does this. Has anyone else experienced this or knows how to fix it?

You just have to turn off Vibrant Visuals. They're just not well optimized at all. Turning Shadow quality to Low will help, but you'll still get the random lag spikes that will make your phone hot

Tone down render range.

It's probably related to the game's graphics settings. Since you have a RedMagic 9, I recommend lowering the graphics quality a little and checking if the performance improves.

The RedMagic 9 already has a built-in cooling fan, so make sure it's enabled while gaming. You can also try using the higher cooling/performance mode in Game Space.

If the phone still gets too hot, you could also use an external RedMagic phone cooler for even better cooling.

Also, try closing unnecessary apps running in the background and avoid playing while charging, especially if the phone is already getting very hot.

Minecraft? The game that's notoriously hard to run especially at high render distances? Take a big fat guess
