Hello, I'm a PS3 Gamer and I play minecraft for years and I thought it would be great to have more PS3 game updates... At June, 20 ,2020 My uncle bought me a new computer and I really loved it!! I started playing MC on my new PC and discovered many new things since my last MC game on mobile. I liked so many new features in 1.16.5 java edition on PC and liked the new mobs. I Loved to play at my PS3 due to my PC's poor condition and I also liked the splitscreen feature so started playing with my brothers... I havent tried playing on MC with the axolotl and i really liked it when i started watching the Minecraft Devs on YouTube... That's all i wanted to say. I Hope you Liked this Post
unfortunately the PS3 does not have enough power to support the new updates. I recently tried Minecraft on my old PS3 and it works badly, Imagine if they had updated it even more.
I don't think it's necessarily that they couldn't handle it or lack the power. In fact, I'd guess that the PS3/360/Wii U could run Bedrock versions (like what PS4/XONE/Switch have now) even smoother than the 4J Studios versions we have now, although maybe with some limitations in areas like mob caps and simulation distance.
The main reason is that, as of 2018, less than 5% of Minecraft players were still playing on these platforms, as stated here.
It became too small of an audience to cater to with the extra developer time and cost associated with optimizing the game for the 360/PS3's "exotic" (especially in the case of the PS3) hardware setup.

Actually... I can run Minecraft on my PS3 60+ FPS...
