If you’re playing Hytale in Early Access via the Cursebreaker Premium Edition, you might want to keep an eye on your account inbox the next time a new chapter is released on the long road to version 1.0.
Simon Collins-Laflamme, founder of Hytale studio Hypixel, announced on Twitter that he will be giving away a single copy of Hytale Standard Edition Early Access to everyone who owns the fancy Cursebreaker Edition every time a new chapter is released until the game gets its 1.0 update, whenever that may be.
Don’t you believe me? Wait, let me find the tweet. Ah, here it is.

“For each Hytale early access chapter that we publish, owners of the Cursebreaker Edition will receive 1 additional copy of the game to give away,” reads a tweet from Hypixel Simon himself, who clarifies that yes, “if we release 6 chapters before 1.0, it will be 6 additional standard copies to give to friends and family.”
Still don’t believe me? Do you think I got those words straight from me you know where? Mistaken! I pulled them from a genuine tweet by Mr. Hytale, which I’ve included below as evidence:
For every Hytale Early Access chapter we release, Cursebreaker Edition owners will receive 1 additional copy of the game to give away. If we release 6 chapters before version 1.0, that’s 6 extra standard copies to give to friends and family! CHAPTER I: OUT OF THE DEFAULT October 12 at 10 am ET https://t.co/o2Q8F8jgd9October 9, 2026
We’re obviously having fun this Friday night, but actually, long-time Hypixel fans probably aren’t too surprised by Simon’s latest antics. Simon takes his job seriously, but he’s also a CEO who likes to have fun, as evidenced by promotions like this one, as well as his offer of $15,000 to the first person who can overcome a ridiculous challenge in the next Out of the Breach update. And speaking of which, that update is coming out on October 12, at which point Cursebreaker Edition players should find a code for early access to Hytale in their inboxes, which they can use to spread the word.
If you, like me, are wondering who to give your potential six copies of Hytale to, well, a Twitter user asked Simon that exact question and got a pretty good response: “get more friends, bro.”
