Smaller Cropped Screen, Black Borders
Ever since updating to the recent Minecraft Jungle Awakens update for PS4, I and many others have noticed that our screens have been reduced/ cropped. Creating a black border around the game. I am unsure if this was intentional or a bug?

Sad to see you have the same issue. At least it doesn't make the game unplayable. Hopefully this gets fixed soon. Thanks for the input. 🖖🏻🙂
Been about a month since I’ve reported this. I’ve been patient and thought this would have been resolved sooner so I can finally continue playing the game I spent $30 on. Anyone here that can respond as to why it’s taken so long??
Can this be adjusted with the screen-space (safe zone) setting on PS4?
Already tried this. It does not fix it. I haven’t been able to play the game in full screen without those black borders since the update. I really hope that this is one of the bugs that will be fixed in September. Kinda sucks that this is only happening to PS4 users.
I believe it has occurred to a few (very few) Xbox one users too.
console Safe zone settings have no affect. Users would have to temporarily alter their TV screen/display settings (away from the correct settings) to remove the the border (or ensure that the HUD and UI elements are visible on screen. Users would then have to revert these TV settings to use other Non-Dungeon UI and services.
Safe zone feature of the PS4 only works if you want to crop the image. Issue is the uncropped image, not cropped. Uncropped tv image has the black borders, black banners, distorted redstone golem head over the fireplace in the house etc.
I believe these may be related to how heavy the game has become. Vanilla MCD was smooth. Current version lags.
Thank you for your report!
