I can't imagine the billions this generates is not worth going exclusive.
Instead rely on like fifteen AAA games to push a console. Minecraft could fund all of them.

I am not asserting that is it going to happen. Just a "thought" experiment.

No Minecraft fan wants Minecraft 2. How do you create an sequel to an endless freedom game?....
Better graphics?
It is already the best looking game with ray tracing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jD0mELZPD8&t=144s
More stuff? You can add and play on servers that literally can have an infinite amount of stuff...
Honestly for next generation they should add vr support for the console versions that's all.

Best looking game? Not entirely. Arguably it can look better than even that image.
That Ray Tracing is a mod that is not available on Xbox 360, Xbox One, Playstation 3, Playstation 4, Playstation Vita, Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo Switch, iOS, Android and not baked into the actual game... And in-fact that image uses several mods.
Plus the game has a plethora of limitations from the 7th gen PC/Console era, CPU's have become significantly better not just in single threaded performance... But in terms of overall core counts that are yet to be taken advantage of.
I would be keen for a Minecraft 2. I would still be keen for a Minecraft 1 on next-gen hardware.
There is lots of potential either way.

Ofcourse it can that is why I linked digital foundry's video that should explain why it is one of the best looking games, it does things with the visuals that we haven't seen yet. If you buy the console/phone versions you will get limitations. On PC it would take you 800 years to work from spawn to the edge of the world. (812 year to be exact) that's impossible on consoles because how more you load new chuncks in the game how bigger the save file gets and consoles have limitations how big the save file may be. If you would cover all of the MC world on pc one save file could be Petabytes. Improving the vanilla version will literally make the game unplayable for tens of millions of people on pc that's why they keep the simple visuals and give you the options to improve it yourself.
