3 New Solo/Doubles maps for Bed Wars!
More good news for Bed Wars fans - we just released 3 new Bed Wars maps for Solo/Double mode. This brings the total maps available in Solo/Double mode up to 5 maps.
Don't forget, our MVP+ users can use the Map Selector to pick these maps and be the first to try them out!

▶ How to Find and Play PTL Games
The Prototype Lobby (PTL) is a space on Hypixel where you can test all our in-development minigames and give your feedback, helping to shape the minigames of Hypixel's future!
To access the PTL, do any of the following:
▶ 3 New Maps
▶ Guild Coins and Experience
Playing Prototype games will now earn you Guild Coins and Experience, effective immediately.
Developer Comments: Guild Coins are used to upgrade the perks available for your Guild, such as Guild Tag and Guild MOTD. Experience provides several benefits, including perks and in-game shop items. Having both of these available to earn through the Prototype games adds additional value to the testing experience while also continuing to allow us to focus primarily on game-play.

3 New Bed Wars Maps now live in the PTL!
Good news for Bed Wars fans - we just released 2 new Bed Wars maps, and have totally revamped the current Solo/Double map Pernicous, with all 3 maps available to play now in the Prototype Lobby. Over the next month we will be bringing you regular map updates to both Bed Wars and Murder Mystery, as well as updates for other games.
For more information on the Prototype Lobby, visit the Introduction thread.
▶ How to Find and Play PTL Games
The Prototype Lobby (PTL) is a space on Hypixel where you can test all our in-development minigames and give your feedback, helping to shape the minigames of Hypixel's future!
To access the PTL, do any of the following:
▶ Revamped Pernicious
Developer Comments: When we initially designed Pernicious we wanted to test out a larger size map with some additional movement features, but unfortunately these didn't pass our internal testing (and feel good). After release, the lack of additional movement features meant some games were very drawn out. In the new version we address this issue with a more compact map, giving greater difficulty when trying to control multiple objectives on mid.
▶ 2 New Maps
▶ Map Selector in Solo & Doubles
Since there's now more than 1 Solo / Doubles map, we've updated the Bed Wars Map Selector to include these modes.
All players can select 1 map per day, but MVP+ ranked players can select unlimited maps. You can upgrade to MVP+ rank for 80% off (this weekend only) on our store: store.hypixel.net.

Murder Mystery Map Selector + Weekend Rank Sale
▶ Map Selector in Murder Mystery
As seen in games like SkyWars and Bed Wars, we've now added the Map Selector to Murder Mystery which allows you to choose the map you would like to play on. This way, if there's a map you love more than others, you can decide to play on it whenever you want.
All players can select 1 map per day, but MVP+ ranked players can select unlimited maps. You can upgrade to MVP+ rank for 80% off (this weekend only) on our store: store.hypixel.net.
To access the map selector, simply click the Murder Mystery NPC in the Prototype Lobby as you would to normally join a game. If you are able to use the map selector, this will allow you to choose a map to play on.
▶ Weekend Rank Sale
From now until Monday, 13th of March, 1 am EST the Hypixel Store will have heavy discounts on all Ranks. Buy yourself your first Rank or upgrade an old one for the lowest Rank prices we've ever had.
We appreciate all the support you guys have given to the server and wish you a great weekend!
TNT Games Update
Hello fellow TNT Games fans!
We've just launched a big update for TNT Games on Hypixel. This update includes new perks and cosmetics, shop and scoreboard improvements, many bug fixes and more!
Read below for a full list of changes:
▶ New Quests and Challenges
There is now a daily quest, weekly quest and challenge specific to each game.
In order to keep rewards reasonable they give slightly less xp and coins than Quests in other games, but they are easier to obtain and there's more of them which balances this out.
▶ 61 New Achievements
For all you achievements hunters and challenge-seekers, we've added 61 new achievements for you to unlock. They range in difficulty from easy to difficult, so hopefully this will give you a variety of challenges to pursue whilst playing.
▶ General Changes
Revamped Shop and new Upgrades
- The shop is now separated in the different games to make it easier to understand which upgrade belongs to which game and to visualize the progress of the upgrades better
- You will also now be asked to confirm your purchases and purchases of 50,000 coins or higher will be announced in your lobby
- Some of the additions are Fortitude (chance to improve your armor on kill) for PVP Run, Blast Protection (chance to survive someone else's explosion) for TNT Tag or even Arrow Trail particles for Bow Spleef
- Added new Settings which you can find by clicking the Redstone Repeater
Redesigned Scoreboards- Scoreboards have been redesigned to show the most important information as nicely as possible, so you don't have troubles finding the right information on the scoreboards while trying to stay alive in a game
Arrow Trails (Bow Spleef)- We've added 6 purchasable arrow trails which are shown on both normal and triple shots
Double Jump Separation & Particle Effects
- Double Jumps are now separate for each game. If you had X Double Jumps before the update, you will now have X Double Jumps in each of the games, but you now have to upgrade them separately
- Added new Double Jump particle effects to spice up your leaps
More Hats & Particle Packs - Added 8 new global particle packs and 3 new hats which can be purchased from the Cosmetics menu
Toxic Wizard & Prestige (TNT Wizards)- For all you fellow magicians out there, we added a new class to Wizards: The Toxic Wizard. He describes himself as "saltier than the sea" and can poison other enemies in a short range and regenerate his health when he is low
- We added a Prestige Class for every class in TNT Wizards. These come at a high cost for a small mana regeneration boost and enhanced gear
Suit Cosmetics (TNT Tag)- In addition to improvements and a few new perks we added a new type of cosmectics: Suits. These are exclusive for TNT Tag
Snowballs (TNT Run)- To spice up longer games you will now receive Snowballs after a while in TNT Run, as cold as they are they will make the blocks fall they hit. But use them wisely, you can only hold 5 at a time
Block Decay (Bow Spleef)
- Similar to Snowballs, blocks in Bow Spleef will slowly disappear on their own after a while, but without spleefing players
- You can now join games by clicking NPCs in the lobby, as an alternative to clicking signs!
- There are Tip Holograms on the maps now, so you can find out more about the game you are playing while you are waiting for it to start!
- Players will now be kicked and removed from the game if they don't move for a while. They will be notified before that happens, incase they were just not paying attention to the game at that moment!
- Potion purchases are now one-time purchases and their duration has been adjusted
- Added PVP Run leaderboards to the lobby
- Now shows stats of all games in /stats <name>
- Wizards now has team chat, you can also do /shout for messages that everyone needs to read
- Maps can now have a custom death height, which resolves the issues of dying while trying to Double Jump back on blocks
- Rubberbanding when using the last Double Jump and overall has been (greatly) improved
- The info board in the lobby has been improved to be more helpful for the seperate games
- Helmets (Hats that affect your armor potential) are now disabled in PVP Run, a note for the shop to those Hats has been added
- Game Welcome message is now shown when joining the server, not when the game starts
- Pregame countdown starts at lower amount of players and the game will start faster if more people join
- Blood Wizard can not heal enemies anymore, but the overall heal has been reduced by 20%
- Coins messages now contain info what the coins were earned for
- Coin values shown when hovering over the emerald in the shop are accurate again
- Right clicking blocks in TNT Run has been removed
- Better death handling for falling into the void in Wizards
- Death Effects are also working in Wizards
- Death Effects have been fixed to not affect gameplay anymore, by dealing damage or knocking players away
- Kinetic Wizard has now learned how to use the Quake railgun to dash now, just left click!
- Relogging in Wizards has been fixed and you won't see everyone with white names anymore
- Fixed Blood Wizards being able to bypass the damage applied when using attack wand
- Fixed being able to instantly change the class you selected ingame by relogging without the need to die
- You cannot use wands in the spawn area anymore
- Particle effects for hats have been removed. They were only shown when no global particle effect was selected and confusing for a lot of players
- Win / Game End messages have been improved, so can now find additional game statistics by hovering over the winner's names
- Class selection in Wizards improved in several ways
- Frostbite (TNT Run Map) has been added back due to community request
- Mirage (Wizards Map) has been removed due to multiple map exploits and lag issues
Last but definitely not least give a big thanks to @Dctr, the Hypixel Player Council and every other person that made this update possible
Note: I know you guys love new maps and we do too! So don't be sad we didn't add any maps as of today, but we are planning and reviewing community maps. You can take a look at the details here: https://hypixel.net/threads/map-submission-review-our-plan-to-review-and-add-community-maps.988948/
