How To Add Mods to Your Hytale Server

Hytale mods are user-created modifications or additions to the game that alter or enhance the gameplay experience. Mods can range from simple tweaks to the game’s mechanics to extensive overhauls that add new features, items, entities, and much more.

Hytale server hosting requires the official Hytale Game to be purchased.

Hytale mods can be downloaded from CurseForge, which hosts a large collection of mods for you to browse through and choose from. Make sure to download mods that are compatible with your server version.
