Hytale’s Early Access release is almost upon us, and Hypixel Studios Inc., the game’s developer, has been showering eager fans with frequent updates and good news. For instance, players can now create an account for Hytale and reserve an in-game name prior to the game’s release. Do so, and you’ll be ahead of everyone else who decides to create their accounts after the Early Access launch. So, here’s what you need to do to create your account in Hytale as early as now.

How to Create an Account in Hytale: A Step-by-Step Guide

One of the developers working on Hytale posted on X/Twitter the link to create an account for the game. Creating an account also helps the developers test their accounts systems by providing them with relevant and important data, which can lead to their improvement over time. The same post mentioned that tokens for reserving each player’s name will be sent to registered email addresses within “the next couple days.” Note that the developer published the post on December 8. So, players should expect the tokens to arrive at their registered email addresses sometime on December 10. With that, here are the steps to create an account and reserve your username in Hytale:

• 1. Navigate to the Hytale official website.
• 2. Click the blue “Join Now!” button. Alternatively, click here.
• 3. Click the “Register here” link at the bottom to create an account.
• 4. Select your preferred method of signing up (e.g., sign up with Discord, Google, or email).
• 5. Verify your age, and then click “Save Date of Birth.”
• 6. Enter the email address that’ll receive the token, and then agree to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy before continuing.
• 7. Confirm your account by clicking on the link sent to your registered email address.
• 8. In the Accounts page, click on “Usernames” in the left sidebar.
• 9. If you have your token, click “Reserve Username.”
• 10. Input your preferred username in the designated field.
• 11. Place the token you received from the Hytale staff in the appropriate field.
• 12. If everything checks out, click “Reserve Username” to complete the process.

Remember the following guidelines when reserving a username in Hytale:

• Once pre-purchases go live, you will be able to create a game profile using your reserved usernames.
• While a reservation is active, nobody else can use that username.
• You may only reserve one username at this time.
• Usernames will show as lowercase, this can be changed later once a game license is purchased.
• By using the username reservation service, you agree to be contacted about the status of your reservation.
• A username must be 3-16 characters and contain only letters, numbers, and underscores.
• Usernames are case-insensitive during reservation. The capitalization can be changed at a later date.
• Hytale’s developers have the right to revoke a username at any time to protect from abuse.
• After pre-ordering Hytale, you can assign your reserved username to a game profile, which will make it forever yours!
• By using the username reservation service, you agree to be contacted about the status of your reservation.

Additionally, about two hours after the post mentioned earlier, the same member of the developing team also highlighted additional pointers for players interested in signing up. In particular, the tokens they’ll receive in their registered emails are “one time use, and one per account.”
