Hytale Preorder Editions Guide

With Hytale entering Early Access on January 13, 2026, preorders are now live and offer players a chance to secure the game and exclusive cosmetic content ahead of launch.

The preorder lineup comes in three editions that all grant full access to Hytale during Early Access, but each tier adds more cosmetic sets and extras for players who want to stand out or support the team’s work. This article breaks down what each edition includes, how pricing works, and options for upgrades.

How Preorders Work

Preorders for Hytale opened on December 13, 2025, with Early Access scheduled for January 13, 2026. Purchasing any preorder edition guarantees early access to the game, reserves your username, and unlocks cosmetic content tied to that tier.

All editions are limited to the Early Access period and will not be sold after that window closes, but the content you unlock stays on your account indefinitely. There is no extra pre-purchase bonus beyond the edition content itself, as the developers want preorder content to feel fair and not create pressure to buy.

Preorder Editions

Standard Edition

The Standard Edition is the base preorder tier and the most affordable way to get into Hytale on day one.

What you get in Standard Edition:

• Full access to Hytale Early Access (and the final game).

• Username reservation lock so you can secure your in-game name before launch.

• Exclusive Standard Edition cape.

• A set of starter cosmetic sets, such as:

  • Forest Guardian set

  • Voyager set

  • Savanna Scout set

Supporter Edition

The Supporter Edition builds on the Standard tier by adding exclusive cosmetic items. It is a popular choice for players who want to personalize their look and show extra support for the development team.

What you get in the Supporter Edition:

• All content from the Standard Edition.

• Exclusive Supporter Edition capes.

• Cosmetic sets such as:

  • Featherbound set

  • Scavenger set

  • Arctic Scout set

  • Explorer Goggles

Cursebreaker Edition

The Cursebreaker Edition is the highest preorder tier available, sometimes referred to as a founder’s pack. It includes everything in the lower tiers plus premium cosmetics.

What you get in the Cursebreaker Edition:

• Everything from the Standard and Supporter Editions.

• Exclusive Cursebreaker Edition capes.

• Premium cosmetic sets such as:

  • Hope of Gaia set

  • Void Hero set

  • Pop Star set

  • Voidbearer set

Upgrade and Customization Options

If you preorder an edition and later decide you want more, you can upgrade to a higher tier at any time before Early Access ends by paying only the difference in price.

All the cosmetic items you unlock can be used together and customized with future cosmetic releases, letting players create unique combinations.

What These Editions Do and Don’t Affect

None of the preorder editions provide gameplay advantages. All versions include the same Early Access game content, including core game modes such as Exploration Mode and Creative Mode, multiplayer support, and modding tools. The upgrades are cosmetic only, meaning they let you look distinctive without affecting balance or progression.

The preorder content also grants name reservation on launch day, so more popular usernames will be available to preorder holders.

Final Thoughts

Hytale’s preorder editions are designed to be welcoming and affordable while giving players meaningful cosmetic rewards and a way to support the project as it enters Early Access. From the budget-friend Standard Edition to the premium Cursebreaker Edition, every tier grants full game access and stays with your account even after preorder sales end.
