What Is Hytale?
Set out on an adventure built for both creation and play. Hytale blends the freedom of a sandbox with the momentum of an RPG: explore a procedurally generated world full of dungeons, secrets, and a variety of creatures, then shape it block by block. Our Early Access release focuses on polished core systems - exploration, responsive combat, and robust building - alongside creator‑first tools for making your own content, crafting minigames, and running community servers. Jump in, make your mark, and help us grow this world together!
Adventure
A WORLD TO EXPLORE
As you traverse each generated landscape, the world will open up around you. Towering ruins, forgotten caverns, and strange landmarks await off the beaten path, with small glimmers of history hinted at in the places, creatures, and items you discover. Along the way you might stumble upon random events, hidden dens, or sudden challenges that turn a simple trip into a memorable story. With a constant mix of surprises and points of interest to uncover, every journey will feel different.
Choose your path
Hytale will support many different playstyles in its final form. Whether you want to be a settler, adventurer, or craftsperson, you'll have plenty to do as you advance through the game.
With so much to see in our exploration mode, so many memories to unlock and other worlds to visit, why not invite a friend or two to share the experience and leave a mark on the world together.
Encounter dire foes
The world of Hytale is host to creatures large and small, from scampering critters to powerful monsters. Each zone features its own unique wildlife, with dangerous creatures standing guard over the most powerful gear in the game.
Master the wilderness
Put down roots in any of Hytale's beautiful biomes. Grow your own crops, make your own food, or build a series of minecart tracks to bridge bigger distances and help you explore. You'll have plenty of opportunities to be creative whether you choose to build a cottage or a castle.
Discover unique worlds
Experience moments of magic as our world generation technology creates spectacle on the fly: rushing rivers carve tunnels through mountains, waterfalls tumble into ancient caverns, and bubbling hot springs promise respite from the perils of the wild.

Character creator
Freeform character customization lets you dress up however you like, from modern stylings to rugged adventuring gear. Express yourself with the wide range of items that we've committed to continuously expand.
RUN YOUR OWN WORLD
From day one, Hytale is built around player‑run servers. Host your own world, customize it with mods and plugins, and shape the experience for your friends or community, whether that's survival, minigames, or something entirely new.
Our server code will be shared‑source and available for everyone, making it easier to tweak, extend, and build the kind of server you've always wanted. Official servers may come later, but the heart of Hytale lives in what you create.
Tools
Made for creators
Hytale includes a comprehensive collection of tools that grant players more creative power than ever, from model creation and animation via Blockbench to advanced in-game creative tools that allows players to build their vision faster than ever. Or you can set that aside and build your domain block by block.

Edit everything
We’re providing all of the same tools that we’ve developed in order to create the game: so if you can see it, you can edit it!
Modelling and animation tools
Hytale now works hand‑in‑hand with Blockbench to power modelling and animation. Creators can build and animate characters, creatures, and props in Blockbench, then bring them into Hytale through a seamless integration designed for modders.
We're actively collaborating with the Blockbench team to keep improving this pipeline and to add features that make creating custom content feel great for Hytale modders.
