We did it. Hytale is saved. We have acquired Hytale from Riot Games.

I’m in active discussions with Riot Games about acquiring Hytale. Updates will be limited for now as we work through it. Thank you for believing in Hytale. Simon

OK Tommy, if you reach 15mil subs you get a unique Hypixel custom rank AND a real life Hypixel Mystery Box AND you get to pick a charity that gets 50,000$

The Hypixel Minecraft server is 9 years old today 🥳

Just made a $50,000 donation to @CureSarcoma in memory of our dear friend Technoblade. We are now up to $74,250 this year in donations to the cause. Deal done, @tommyinnit. I bet 50k he could reach 15 million subs a few years ago, and he did today! He also got a pink INNIT rank on Hypixel, the same colour as Technoblade :)

15mil subs and custom unique rank is yours, Ill even make it pink to stand out

OK TOMMY RED IT IS

no risk, no story

OK WAT USERNAME ?

Just a reminder: no blog post today for Hytale! See you all next week! In the meantime... enjoy my meme.

yes

@Technothepig @im_a_squid_kid look what you guys have done, poor potatoes had families

12 years ago, I created Hypixel. Today, I'm branching out to create a new, entirely self-funded game studio, starting with a $4 million USD budget. My focus is on producing fun games and putting together a talented, dedicated, lean team. The financial return of our debut game isn't my primary concern. Production begins this summer. The search for a high-performing leadership team to bring the vision to life is underway. Interested parties should contact me. Simon

I get it 100%, look I am even down to put 25 millions USD by myself to finish Hytale, that’s how much I believe in it. No kickstarter, just raw passion, high pressure and high risk taking. Reduce scope: legacy engine, pc only first, open source some parts, small team, cut unfinished features to accelerate towards beta. Get players in ASAP to support development. I even already have a dozen of Hytale legacy engine veterans working with me. That’s what I would do, but I have not reached out, I’m just thinking about it now because of the bullying haha. This would be a massive challenge and impact all aspects of my life so I would probably need to consult with my family first!

all in, locked in 🫡

YOU GOT YT RANK NOW. UNFORTUNATELY can’t join out of work as Im having the great « pleasure » kidney stone right now 🥲

Did you open the mystery box I sent you months ago? There is a Minecraft PvP guide inside 😅

btw @BadBoyHalo

winner gets a surprise

We just hit 18,000,000 unique players on the Hypixel Minecraft server! That means about 52% of people who bought Minecraft java edition manually typed the address and logged on the server😮 Thank you all for this opportunity, I am still working hard like day 1. Love you all ❤️

The Hypixel server is 10 years old today! AND STILL GOING STRONG! THANK YOU ALL, LETS GO FOR ANOTHER 10!

38,717,739 unique players on the Hypixel Minecraft Server (PC Java Edition) and still growing after 13 years! That's about $1,161,532,170 USD worth of Minecraft accounts🤯 An estimated half of players who bought this version of Minecraft played once on Hypixel!

2 years ago technoblade destroyed me in duels and I haven’t mentally and physically recovered, I get weekly recommendations from YouTube to watch it again and again It’s time we unite for revenge

The offer is 10x what the true market value is. They have no team, no one can even start or compile the game anymore, I hired most who could and will continue to do so in the coming days. Hytale is for the players, by the players. 🫡

🔥GIVEAWAY🔥 7x Hypixel Jerseys from my personal collection Super rare, not sold anywhere! (Limited in sizes, but great collection item!) 🔃Re-tweet and follow for a chance to win! Winners will be selected on August 24th

Looking for an available artist to make me a new avatar, drop your portfolio in replies please! Sketches are appreciated but not necessary, thanks! Will pay $2500 USD and will only accept human art, no AI.

Just made my final counter offer, the ONLY chance to see Hytale. I’m going all in. This is the timeline. Let’s fucking go.

me and my AFK boi @Technothepig

@Technothepig remember last year when I gave you the challenge to do weekly videos for the summer?

To clarify, it would require a LOT less money to get to something that could be released in « Very Early Access » with temporarily removed features. We could just get the community involved ASAP in modding / bug reports / feature requests / crowdfunding and find ways to use Shared Source and Open Source with cash bounties to speed up production and keep team relatively small. Guys, please, this is important, keep your expectations extremely low because usually when large companies shutdown a project like this the chances of revival are next to impossible. Yes, I made the decision, I will give my best to save Hytale. Even if it’s 1% chance. Its the least I can do to the same community that gave me the opportunity to be where I am today. I will reach out, however remember it will take a while, give it some time. It will take months to get answers and months to get done. I will share as much as possible as I go through the process. 🫡

CONGRATS!!! this is unreal!

Proud of you son 🥲 I thought of this video, good times piped.video/zQMtDL5M9k8

90.6k player peak today, what

I have a surprise for you @Technothepig

7 months ago, we set a goal of 200,000 concurrent players in a tweet and today we hit over 216,000! Thank you all for your support, we got big things for you all in the coming months 😊 This week also marks the 8th anniversary of the server, happy “birthday” everyone!

Today, we hit over 72,000 players online at the same time on our Minecraft server before running out of space. gg

like this tweet for a chance to win absolutely nothing

We made it to 100k peak players before some stuff exploded, gg everyone! We can hold about 92k stable but couldn't resist the 100k meme and pushed as far as we could with current hardware. Thanks all! My twitter feed is full of 100k screenshots, hype!

Merry Christmas! Reply to this tweet with what you want for xmas and I’ll pick 3 people by end of year! 🌟

Peaked at 76,415 players today, nice but can you guys just go back to school I need a day off, thanks

big potato energy

60,453 peak players today, gg Feeling good, giving away $2500 worth of store credit (5 winners $500 each), just tweet me your username and make sure you follow so I can DM you. 😎

Update: After a few months, we got the news that the surgery didn't work, we have to try another one as soon as next week. :(

82,000 peak players today, wow! GG everyone

I heard fortnite new season is frustrating come play some chill hypixel skyblock I promise your blood pressure and life will get better

guys, I gave @Technothepig access to the replay system so he can make videos he has no more excuses now

Reply with your Hypixel ingame name, I got an extra medium sized jersey from my personal collection to give away 🌟 super rare 🌟

Would you guys be interested in a video explaining how Hypixel started? And how World of Warcraft raiding made it all possible? I think that could be a first fun casual video to produce on my free(limited) time

Hi Mr. Ninja, Hypixel SkyBlock has no mech. You are welcome.

We made a server that got 16 million unique users and peaked at 76k concurrent users this weekend. Built a team of over 70+ people across the world and was able to make our own game @Hytale. It allows creators of all fields to try new things and be supported by the community.

btw @Technothepig you can keep the PIG rank on our server as long as you upload at least 1 video a week for the whole summer (doesn't need to be Hypixel related), if you achieve consistency, the rank will become permanent

The Hypixel server team just donated 24,250$ to @CureSarcoma Great initiative by squid kid! @Technothepig we miss you buddy ❤️

this is the greatest trilogy of all time

🙃

I’m afraid techno is now the only one in possession of the sacred book... I must confess, I signed it and bundled it with a Pig mask.. it might have created some voodoo magic in the process

*Hypixel Server plans for 2020* We will be doing massive investments towards anti-cheat, tools and moderation in an effort to combat cheating. Starting today, we are opening 3 full-time anti-cheat devs positions that will work for years to come. If need be, we will hire more.

I don't see a world where Roblox can be fixed without major platform changes. 1. Free game = no payment info makes it harder for law to get involved for serious cases. Banned accounts just return right away. 2. UGC emotes/cosmetics with no verification system and majority of players being children = guess what happens. 3. It's a public company = sued if they do major changes for the better of players but hurt income too much in the process. 4. It's now more of a social network, especially seeing their CEO talk about adding a dating service, like what bro? Stay in your lane and focus on gaming experiences and player safety. 5. Chat/voice is "easy" to moderate these days with tools/AI, but custom emotes/dances/cosmetics are not yet because it requires context and would be expensive to analyze. Requires a major platform change until that is possible to moderate. I'm not even a Roblox player and can see this from miles away. I respect the technology and success behind Roblox, but that's about it. Almost every single game developers parents that I talk to won't let their kids play Roblox. My kids will never play Roblox. Even GTA is safer than Roblox today. This is something that the game industry privately talk about all the time.

Congratulation to my best friend @Noxywoxy for his new role as CEO at Hypxiel Studios and the partnership with @riotgames! I’m sure it has been emotionally overwhelming for you today and I simply want to say I love you man!

that would be in the top 10 steam list, still doing great after almost 7 years gg

80% of my tshirts are YouTuber merch, I obviously need more. please send links to the best ones

He might beat you in every possible ways of life, but he doesn’t have pig rank.

Flight attendant: Is there a doctor on this flight? Dad: *nudging me* that should've been you Me: Not now Dad Dad: Not asking for a Hytale blog post, are they? Me: Dad, there's a medical emergency happening right now Dad: Go and see if posting blog posts helps

I have a Mystery Box for @Technothepig

Congratulations my dude, well deserved

@Technothepig you should write your own version of The Art of War by Sun Tzu

I am secretly recruiting all the big fortnite superstars to play Hypixel SkyBlock as part of my phase 1 for world domination btw

Just got back from my first “real” vacation in 7 years, feels good to be back! What’s up?

😎

Hytale has some big bad bois #GameDev

The server is having some major network issues, the team been working on for the past few hours. I just rushed back and will be helping as well, just please be patient.

damn imagine sending trophies and they actually open it cc: @Technothepig

It's good news! I should have worded the post better😅

pewdiepie playing herobrine mansion like it's 2012 again love it

I agree with Fortnite Creators: It's a game genre. We, Hypixel, originally created many new game genres over the years, such as The Pit (2018) and The Walls (2012), in Minecraft. I enjoy seeing people use these game genres however they see fit. Over the years, the names have become generic terms to define game genres, like Battle Royale. I love to see our innovations go beyond Minecraft. Epic Games promoted The Walls in one of their promos, and I was happy to see it. It takes me back to 2012, when I first came up with the name and genre, living in a small one-bedroom apartment barely making a living. I also believe in my ability to make new and innovative content and name genres in the future; I do not hold on to the past and wish more would do the same. I think it's great to see @Geerzy succeed with our game genre and name, The Pit. He has done an amazing job remaking it in Fortnite and has had great financial success. He was a Hypixel player, got YouTube rank, and spent hours on The Pit and other games before making his Fortnite version of The Pit, doing his research to improve it. That's great. I'm happy for him. However, I am disappointed with how this has turned out with his recent actions. I hope he can use this as a turning point, work alongside other content creators, and rebuild relationships because, in the long term, this matters to a business's survival. This is how I built Hypixel from the ground up and made great relationships. I was lucky enough to work alongside the biggest names in the industry over the years and have made business deals that have changed my life's path. Let me know if I can be of any assistance. I wish you both great success.

dont tell them damnit, my player count is going up

The most requested feature of the month is a command to play note block version of @CaptainSparklez Revenge

@Technothepig I legit risked my LIFE to go grab an unknown package at a pickup place and look what was in the box, worth the risk imo

Great work to the Hypixel server team and congrats on the ongoing release process! MORE big updates are in the works and will be using new MC versions, very exciting future to see how far we can push Minecraft! Opening a ton of positions in the coming weeks, keep your eyes open👀

We are currently experiencing heavy load and I just now ordered 100+ dedicated server machines to improve performances and increase playercount. I wish we could scale on the cloud but unfortunately that’s not how it works on Minecraft! Thanks all, take care of yourselves.
