The original Hive SkyWars experience isn't going anywhere; the Solo, Duos, and Squads modes can still be played as normal.

To reduce queue times and ensure that platform-based matchmaking is active more frequently, we’ve decided to vault the Trios and Mega modes. SkyWars: Kits has also been vaulted for the time being—it may return in the future.

In the coming weeks, we will also be releasing a SkyWars level update, which will bring the total level to 100, and introduce prestige.

As always, we'd love to hear your feedback! If you have any suggestions or find any bugs, please head over to our forums or Discord.

Developer Note: We understand that it can be frustrating to have your favorite game mode vaulted. Now that summer is ending, we're anticipating player counts to lower - and ensuring games stay sustainable is important to us. Games with more active queues are better for everyone. You get faster games and a wider range of opponents.

All games removed were struggling to exceed more than 200 concurrent players, with often only 60-100 people playing in each region. We hope to bring SkyWars: Kits back in the future with the more kits update.

Additionally, we are working on "fill options" for parties, so you can play our squads games as a trio, without a random player being assigned to your team. Thank you for the understanding!
