How to Make a Hytale Server: Step-by-Step

If you want to play Hytale multiplayer with friends, the best experience usually comes from hosting your own server. It gives you full control, better stability, and makes it easy for friends to join anytime.

In this guide, you will learn how to set up a Hytale server quickly using UltraServers, including installation, authentication, and how to connect in-game.

Step 1: Choose a Hytale Hosting Plan

Go to the UltraServers website and choose a hosting plan that fits how many players you expect.

General guidance:

1. Small friend groups usually do fine on an entry-level plan.
2. Larger groups or modded servers typically need more RAM and CPU.

After selecting a plan, proceed through checkout.

Step 2: Let the Server Install Automatically

Once checkout is complete, your server will automatically begin installing the required files.

This usually includes:

1. Base server files
2. Dependencies needed to run the server
3. Initial configuration setup

You do not need to manually upload anything during this stage.

Step 3: Complete the Authentication Step

During setup, you may see an authentication pop-up in the server panel.

1. Click Fix Now
2. A browser page will open
3. Click Approve

After approval, return to the server console. You should see a success message confirming authentication completed.

Step 4: Find Your Server IP Address

To join your Hytale server, you will need the server IP.

In your UltraServers panel, look at the top-right area, where the server IP is displayed. Copy it exactly.

Step 5: Add and Join the Server in Hytale

Now you are ready to connect from Hytale:

1. Open Hytale
2. Click Servers
3. Click Add Server
4. Paste your server IP address
5. Save, then join the server

Once you are in, your friends can follow the same steps using the same IP.

Conclusion

That’s it. Once authentication is approved and your server is running, hosting a Hytale multiplayer server is mostly just a matter of copying the IP and adding it inside Hytale.

With your personal server, your world can stay online, friends can join reliably, and you have a solid foundation for future changes like custom settings, plugins, or mods.
