Hytale: How To Change Your Username
You can change your username in Hytale from your account dashboard, and full username changes are limited to once every 30 days, while capitalization changes can be done anytime. The process is quick, account based, and does not require launching the game.
This guide explains exactly where to go, what limits apply, and what happens after you update your name.
Where Username Changes Are Managed
All username changes happen on your Hytale account page, not inside the game client.
Once logged in, your username is tied to a game profile. Every profile represents a license to play and cannot be transferred or deleted.
How To Change Your Username
Follow these steps carefully to avoid mistakes.
Log in to your Hytale account
Open your account dashboard
Select Game Profiles
Choose the profile you want to edit
Select Change Username
Enter your new username
Confirm the update
If the name is available and you are not on cooldown, the change applies immediately.
How To Change Capitalization Only
Capitalization changes are treated differently.
You can change the letter casing of your current username at any time. This does not trigger the 30 day cooldown.
Use the Change Capitalization option under the same Game Profiles menu, enter the updated casing, and confirm.
Username Change Cooldown Rules
Each profile can only change its username once every 30 days.
This cooldown applies only to full username changes, not capitalization. There is no way to bypass or reset the cooldown early.
What Happens After You Change Your Username
Your new username becomes active right away on your account.
It is recommended to restart your current game session so the change fully applies everywhere. Your profile, progress, and license remain unchanged.
Important Account Limitations
Some actions are not possible and are worth knowing up front.
Usernames cannot be transferred between accounts. Profiles cannot be merged. Deleted accounts cannot be restored.
If you delete your account, all data is permanently removed.
Username Availability And Refunds
If you refund your purchase, your username stays reserved for 7 days.
After that window, the username becomes available to other players. Deleted usernames may also remain locked for a short period before reuse.
Final Blurb
Changing your Hytale username is simple once you know where to look, but the 30 day cooldown makes choosing carefully important. Use capitalization changes freely, save full name changes for when you are sure, and remember that profiles and usernames stay tied to the account forever.
