What is Orbis in Hytale?

Orbis is the main world of Hytale, the game by Hypixel Studios. Orbis is divided into distinct zones, each with its own biomes, creatures, resources and bosses.

How many zones does the Orbis map have?

The Orbis map features six zones. Zones 1 to 4 — Emerald Wilds, Howling Sands, Whisperfrost Frontiers and Devastated Lands — are detailed here, while Zones 5 and 6 remain locked.

Is this the official Hytale world map?

No. This interactive map is a community-made overview of Orbis based on publicly shown Hytale material. It is not an official map released by Hypixel Studios.

What are the Alterverses?

Alterverses are worlds beyond Orbis. Hytale lore describes additional planets that players may visit; the ones shown so far are listed in the Alterverses section of this page.

Which zone should a new Hytale player start in?

Emerald Wilds (Zone 1) is the lowest-difficulty zone on the Orbis map, which makes it the natural starting area for new Hytale players.

Can I see the creatures and resources of each zone?

Yes. Select any zone on the map and the side panel lists that zone's sub-biomes, creatures, ores and bosses.

The starting zone — the best place to learn the game mechanics. Wide meadows, dense forests, swamps, prairies, and rocky outcrops. The safest zone on Orbis, populated by friendly Kweebec villages alongside the hostile Trork tribes.
