Hytale Sets Out V2 World Generation Built for Designers Ahead of Early Access

The in-progress system will replace the launch generator later, letting non-coders shape biomes through a live, node-based editor.

Overview

  • Hytale enters very early access on January 13 using its V1 generator from 2016–2020, with the V2 system developed since 2021 planned to take over afterward as the supported generator.
  • Players will be able to step through in-game Gateways in Exploration mode to preview under-construction V2 content before the full transition.
  • The tools emphasize no-code creation with a visual node editor that live-reloads changes in-game and supports context-aware placement, such as ash trees spawning over cave openings.
  • Hypixel plans to hire over a dozen world designers sourced largely from the community to build biomes, assets, and tools for the new pipeline.
  • The early access build will offer native Linux support, though seamless play on Steam Deck is not guaranteed at launch.
