Hytale features a robust command system accessible via the in-game chat (opened with the T key by default). Type a forward slash / followed by the command name and any arguments, then press Enter to execute. Commands are case-sensitive. In singleplayer or on your own server, use /op self to grant yourself operator (admin) permissions for advanced commands. Use /help (or /?) to view available commands based on your permissions.
This guide compiles all known commands from official patch notes, community guides, and server documentation as of January 2026. Commands are categorized for ease of use. Builder tools are especially powerful in Creative mode. Note recent updates: teleport commands fixed to /tp , /give now supports durability, and whitelist/ban commands accept usernames or UUIDs.
