Prepare for Nostalgia - as announced previously, our new Classic Games Lobby (or Classic Lobby) is now live!
▶ How to Access Classic Lobby
To access the Classic Lobby, just do one of the following:
- Open the compass and click the Classic Lobby icon (jukebox)
- OR Click the Classic Lobby NPC in the Main Lobby
- OR Type the /lobby Classic command in chat and hit enter
▶ What is the Classic Lobby?
The Classic Lobby is a new hub on Hypixel where you can play all of our Classic Games. Our goal is to create a place where there are more people hanging out and playing these games, and to give you more reasons to play.
The Classic Lobby is an updated version of the first ever Hypixel Lobby - many of you will remember this super old school layout. So much nostalgia!
Shops for the Classic Games can be accessed by clicking the Shopkeeper NPC in the lobby. Leaderboards for games have been updated to our new format, and can be found along the left and right paths. We have also added a Classic Tokens system, and have updated all boosters for Classic Games to the new Classic Boosters.
▶ Classic Tokens
Classic Tokens are a new currency that can be earned by playing games in the Classic Lobby. Similar to Hype in the PTL, you can earn Tokens by playing Classic Games.
After collecting 10 tokens, you can use the Classic Tokens NPC in lobby to spin for a prize! Prizes include different amounts of coins for Classic Games. The idea is to reward you guys for playing, and encourage you to play other games 
▶ Classic Boosters
All boosters for Classic Games (TKR, Arena Brawl, VampireZ, Quakecraft, Walls and Paintball) have been replaced by the new Classic Booster.
Classic Boosters work just like any other booster, except when activated they activate triple coins (x3) for all Classic Games. So this is a huge increase in value - instead of just activating for 1 game, they activate for 6!
You can buy Classic Boosters right now by visiting the Hypixel store!
If you had any boosters for Classic Games in your in-game inventory, these have now been converted to Classic Boosters. So for example, if you had a Quakecraft booster and a VampireZ booster, you will now have 2 Classic Boosters. When activated, these new Classic Boosters will still boost the previous game (Quakecraft or VampireZ) but will also boost all 5 other games! Very cool
[edit] If we see that booster queues are too long for the Classic Lobby, we will find a solution, but the numbers suggest queues shouldn't be too long. If they get too long we will resolve this in a way that benefits players
Our hope is that these changes will make Classic Games easier and more fun to play, with even more rewards, and more of a combined sense of community. We'll be monitoring the lobby closely, listening to your feedback, and making changes as necessary.
Thanks for reading, and we hope you enjoy all the nostalgia!
