Hytale Sets $20 Early Access Price as Hypixel Locks In Relaunch Plans

Collins-Laflamme says the price reflects an unfinished build intended to draw in as many players as possible.

Despite his enthusiasm, Hytale founder warns the Minecraft spiritual successor “is not good enough, I genuinely mean it”

Overview

  • Hypixel confirmed a $19.99 standard edition with $34.99 Supporter and $69.99 Cursebreaker packs offering cosmetic items.
  • An exact release date is expected by the end of next week, with preorders, name reservation, and account creation to open once it is set.
  • The team cautions this will be a true early access with missing features and bugs, running on a build from over four years ago.
  • Pre‑release work includes hardware testing, finalizing legal documents, stabilizing the game, and addressing security issues.
  • Hypixel pledges a 0% cut from modders and server owners for at least two years, as Collins‑Laflamme takes personal financial risk to relaunch with a team of about 50.
