Top 10 Hytale Server Mods: PvP, Factions, and RPG

Hytale is finally available in Early Access and the modding scene is booming! With necromancy allowing you to summon skeletons, armor toggling for immersive PvP, and constant world generation improvements, now is the perfect time to set up your server and select the best mods.

In this article, we have selected the 10 essential server mods to fully exploit the potential of Hytale, whether you want to create a Factions server, a competitive PvP universe, or an immersive RPG adventure.

Why is Hytale modding booming?

Hypixel Studios made a strategic choice by partnering with CurseForge right from the Early Access launch. The result: over 1200 available mods in just a few days, with over 85 mods on the first day alone!

The Hytale modding system offers several major advantages:

  • Server-side modding : Players do not need to install mods manually. Joining a modded server automatically downloads the necessary content on the client side.
  • Three types of mods : Packs (codeless assets), Plugins (Java API), and Early Plugins (low-level modifications).
  • Built-in Asset Editor : Content creation without programming experience.
  • Server self-updater : Automatic updates without downtime.

Performance is also optimized thanks to the ECS system (Entity Component System), significantly reducing lag on high-traffic PvP servers.
