A new fan-made project has done the impossible: Minecraft and Hytale players can finally share the same worlds. The CXV711 mod uses a Translation Bridge System to sync gameplay, biomes, and mechanics across both games, turning two separate sandboxes into one connected universe.
While the mod is still not released officially, and we have just seen a few glimpses, they have sparked massive discussions across Reddit, X, and both communities.
Minecraft and Hytale Now Share Worlds, Items, and Chaos in This Stunning Crossplay Mod
Players can now build, fight, and explore across Minecraft and Hytale using the new CXV711 crossplay mod, which connects both games through a Translation Bridge System. This tool syncs items, mobs, and terrain features, allowing creations from one game to function in the other. The mod turns shared servers into chaotic playgrounds where Minecraft’s Redstone meets Hytale’s custom scripting, producing unexpected mechanics and multiplayer mayhem.
At the core of this crossplay project, the Hytale server serves as a host where the Minecraft clients can connect and receive data from the other world. In a nutshell, Minecraft players are not running Hytale natively, and neither Hytale is borrowing anything from Minecraft. Instead, the server acts as a bridge, translating all the block movements, combat data, and other interactions so that both ends work in sync.
From the Twitter by a 15-year-old modder named ‘iamcxv711′ who was also behind the Windows 95 mod, we can see a few seconds into this Minecraft and Hytale crossplay that players from each game can see the same actions happening in real time. Moreover, each of their actions is rendered in their own gameplay visual styles.
However, there are some natural restrictions due to the differences between Minecraft and Hytale. Many Hytale-exclusive blocks can be seen as the substitute Minecraft blocks, and several systems are still unstable.
But there is some good news, too. The chunk loading has started working properly, and combat systems have been introduced between players from either world. Although some features seem to be broken and still in development, the reactions from both the Minecraft and Hytale communities are overwhelmingly positive.
Reddit and X threads are discussing the project, and it has gathered thousands of upvotes and likes. Players had thought that such a crossplay feature would be impossible between two separate games that have so much in common.
However, there have always been a set of people who love raising concerns and opting out of new changes. Among these questions, a fair concern arises about the long term stability of this mod, since Hytale seems to release patch notes and updates quite frequently. But, SSquadTeam surely has observed these and plans to make the mod more stable once it releases in the stable phase.
How to install Minecraft Hytale crossplay mod once released
Once the Minecraft-Hytale crossplay mod is released, you’ll basically be installing it on both sides: a mod on the Hytale server and a companion client or mod on Minecraft. Here’s a practical, step-by-step outline of how it will likely work (based on how Hytale mods and similar crossplay bridges are set up).
1. Prepare your Hytale server
The crossplay mod will run on a Hytale server, which then “translates” between Minecraft and Hyt
Where to download Minecraft Hytale crossplay mod by iamcxv7
As of now, the Minecraft-Hytale crossplay mod by iamcxv7 (SSquadTeam) is not publicly released for download; it is still labeled as unstable and in “proof-of-concept” stage.
Where it will likely appear
Once the mod is ready, the safest places to download it will be:
-
The modder’s official X (Twitter) account@iamcxv711, where they post updates and links.
-
A GitHub repository or CurseForge/Modrinth page linked from that X account or from the Hytale subreddit posts where iamcxv7 shares progress.
How to stay updated
-
Follow @iamcxv711 on X and watch for posts that say something like “crossplay mod release” or “download link.”
-
Check the r/HytaleInfo subreddit for threads titled “Minecraft and Hytale crossplay” or similar; the modder often announces builds there.
Right now there is no official download link; any third-party site claiming to host the mod is likely unofficial or unsafe.
If you tell me whether you want Java-only, Bedrock, or hosted-server support, I can outline exactly what to look for in the release notes when it drops.
