How to play Hytale in early access

Hytale is about to go live on early access, and you can play the game if you’re on a PC.

The upcoming game was on the chopping block last year when Riot Games canceled the project. Since then, things have improved for the better as Hypixel founder Simon Collins-Laflamme managed to secure the publishing rights.

While the early access isn’t available for free, joining it is pretty simple.

How to join Hytale early access

Hytale‘s early access version won’t be available on Steam. While the game could appear on Steam in the future, that’s not going to happen anytime soon. If you want to start playing the early access on Jan. 13, your only option is the game’s official website.

There are three different editions available for purchase. All three editions guarantee you instant access to the game, along with a bunch of goodies. But that’s pretty much all you need to do. Go to the website, select your edition, confirm your purchase, and you’re good to go.

Hytale’s early access release date

Hytale is releasing worldwide on Jan. 13 (in early access). It’s only going to be available on PC, and you can only get your copy from the website. As of writing, there’s no confirmation about Steam availability, likely because of the ongoing standalone early access process.
