Best Hytale server hosting: how to choose

Three ways to run a Hytale server

Before you compare hosts, it’s worth knowing you might not need one. Here is how the three ways to play Hytale with friends compare.

What to look for in a Hytale host

These are the things that matter for Hytale in particular. Each one says why, links the guide with the details, and says honestly what Wilderack does about it.

1. At least 4 GB of RAM

   Hypixel says a Hytale server needs at least 4 GB, and that view distance uses the most memory. It recommends a view radius of 12 chunks. Hytale server performance and RAM

   YesOn Wilderack: Plans start at Sprout 4 GB and we recommend Sapling 6 GB. New servers start at Hypixel’s 12 chunks.

2. Server sign-in done for you

   Every Hytale server must be signed in to a Hytale account before players can join. Hytale server sign-in and Server Discovery

   YesOn Wilderack: We sign your server in for you. You only sign in with your own account if you want a Server Discovery listing.

3. Mods from CurseForge

   Hytale mods run on the server, so players join a modded server without installing anything. Big updates can break plugins until their authors rebuild them. Hytale server mods and plugins

   YesOn Wilderack: Search CurseForge from the Mods tab, or upload .jar and .zip files to the mods folder.

4. The port, not just the address

   Hytale doesn’t support SRV records yet, so players always type the address with its port. How to join your Hytale server

   YesOn Wilderack: The address card shows both, ready to copy and share.

5. The rules on selling perks

   Hypixel’s Server Operator Policies ban real-money gambling, NFTs and speculative crypto on every server, and limit paid random items. How to make a Hytale server

   YesOn Wilderack: Our getting started guide sums up the policies and links Hypixel’s own text.

What a cheap Hytale server costs

A cheap server is one with enough memory for your group, not the lowest price on a page. These are the plans we sell for Hytale, with the group size each one suits.

Monthly plans renew at the price shown, and you can cancel any time. A 3-day pass is a one-time payment that doesn’t renew. Prices in US dollars + applicable taxes.

Hypixel’s 4 GB minimum is the floor, which is why Sprout 4 GB is our smallest Hytale plan. Keep the view radius at 12 chunks and it suits a few friends; size up for a bigger group or mods.

Part of why the price is low: your server naps when nobody is playing, so you don’t pay for hours of an empty world. Your world and settings stay exactly as you left them.

Where Wilderack falls short

No host is right for every group. These are the reasons we might not be the one for yours.

• Hytale orders aren’t open yet. Hytale asks every hosting company to register with Hypixel Studios before selling servers. Orders open the day our registration is done, and the waitlist hears first.
• We are still testing whether joining wakes a sleeping Hytale server. Until we are sure, open your wake link before you play.
• Two regions so far: Europe and US East. Groups in Asia, Oceania or South America will have higher ping than with a host nearby.
• We are new, so we can’t show you years of uptime yet. A 3-day pass is the cheap way to try us first.
