July Developer Summary - Minecraft 1.13, Guild Update and More
Hello Hypixelians,
Welcome to the July Development Summary, where we will be sharing insights into our past, current, and future projects.
Just a quick reminder that anything I share is subject to change during development. I won’t be able to share everything the team is currently working on in this summary, as some of the projects are in very early stages of development and we want to keep some surprises for the community. However, we are aiming to update you on these projects as soon as we can.

▶ Rush V2
We're bringing back Rush with a few changes from the feedback and ideas shared with us from the community. Don't worry - as we release new dream modes, we plan to put previous modes into the rotation again in the future! So if you missed a mode, you will have a chance to play it later on.
Due to the increased player count during summer vacation, we are adding solo for dream modes starting with Rush. Although, we may not be able to offer this in future rotations, we hope you solo players can join in with the dream during summer.
Rush V2 Changelog:
- Added solo mode, as stated above this is only possible due to increased players over the summer holiday.
- Stats are now tracked, just like other dream modes.
- Doubled the price of all potions.
- Removed obsidian from the store.
- Sudden death will now spawn two dragons by default.
- We've slightly increased the speed of the bridge building.
- We've now added the ability to toggle the bridging by left-clicking while holding wool.
We hope you enjoy the new updates! As always, report all bugs here so we can fix them as soon as possible!
