After a turbulent development history, which includes a cancellation and a studio buy-back, Hytale is officially coming to early access on Jan. 13, 2026, and the sandbox fans finally have a date to play the game.
“This is true early access, meaning it’s still very much unfinished and broken, but you have my and the team’s commitment to make Hytale the game we’ve always wanted it to be. The game isn’t good yet; eventually, it will be. If you don’t feel comfortable pre-ordering or participating in Early Access, please don’t,” Simon Collins-Laflamme, Hypixel co-founder, said on X (formerly Twitter).
