Include what makes your server unique, the game modes available, any special features or plugins, community rules, and how players can get started. A good description helps players decide if your server is right for them.

In your server settings, upload a banner image (recommended size: 468x60 pixels). This image appears on your server listing and helps your server stand out. Keep file size under 500KB for best performance.

Yes, your dashboard shows statistics including total votes received, page views, vote history over time, and ranking position. Use these insights to understand how your server is performing.

Players can vote for their favourite Hytale servers once every 24 hours. Each vote contributes to the server's ranking on our Hytale server list, helping great servers get discovered. Voting is completely free and many servers reward voters with in-game perks through Votifier integration.

Hytale servers are ranked based on a combination of factors including total votes, monthly votes, player activity, uptime percentage, and community engagement. Our ranking algorithm is designed to surface the best Hytale servers that players genuinely enjoy, while giving newer servers a fair chance to climb the rankings.

Votifier is a plugin that allows servers to detect when players vote and reward them with in-game items or currency. Set up Votifier on your server, then add your Votifier key and port in your Hytale Realm dashboard settings.

Voting helps great servers get discovered by other players. Many servers also reward voters with in-game perks, items, or currency through Votifier integration. It's a win-win!

Yes! You can vote for as many different servers as you like. However, you can only vote for each individual server once every 24 hours.

We ping servers regularly to check their status. If a server is offline, it will show a red indicator. Servers with extended downtime may be temporarily hidden from search results but won't be deleted.

Check that your server IP and port are correct in your listing. Ensure your server firewall allows connections from our ping service. If problems persist, contact us with your server details.

We ping all listed servers every 5 minutes to check their online status and update player counts. This ensures our listings show accurate, real-time information.

Hytale was created by Hypixel Studios, founded by Simon Collins-Laflamme and the team behind the famous Hypixel Minecraft server. Riot Games acquired Hypixel Studios in 2020, but in November 2025, Simon bought Hytale back and now owns 100% of the game independently - no investors or publishers. He has committed to 10 years of personal funding to bring Hytale to life.

Hytale Early Access launches on January 13, 2026! After being cancelled by Riot Games in June 2025, Simon Collins-Laflamme reacquired the game and brought back 30 developers to return to the original vision. We're building Hytale Realm to be the premier Hytale server list, ready for launch day.

You can pre-purchase Hytale from the official Hytale store at store.hytale.com. Pre-purchasing guarantees access on Early Access launch day (January 13, 2026).

No, Hytale Realm is an independent, fan-made project. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by Hypixel Studios or Simon Collins-Laflamme. "Hytale" is a trademark of Hypixel Studios.

No, Hytale is a completely separate game from Minecraft. Servers will need to be created specifically for Hytale using Hytale's server software.
