Hyvix is bringing something new to keep the community engaged while Nations Season 2 is in development. Behind the scenes, we’re working hard on the next major chapter, but in the meantime, we’re introducing a unique and intense roleplay experience: HYVIX’ ICEBOUND.
Icebound takes place on a custom vanilla Minecraft map split into two islands, separated by a massive ice wall. For the first days of the event, this wall will divide all participants, shaping the early game into a story of isolation, survival, and discovery. As always, the focus is on player-driven storytelling, what happens next is entirely up to you.
EVENT TIMELINE
The Icebound event will run across nearly two weeks:
START – Monday, April 6
THE ICE WALL MELTS – Friday, April 10
NETHER OPENING – Saturday, April 11
END OPENING – Sunday, April 12
SPECIAL EVENT – Monday, April 13
END OF GAMEPLAY – Saturday, April 18
FINALE – Sunday, April 19 (final event only)
During this time, players will have access to everything available in vanilla Minecraft. Additional rules and guidelines will be shared before the server officially opens to ensure a fair and immersive experience.
CORE EXPERIENCE
Icebound is designed to deliver a challenging and story-rich environment:
HARDCORE MODE – one life only; death is permanent
DIVIDED WORLD – two islands separated by a towering ice wall
PLAYER FREEDOM – alliances, conflicts, and stories are entirely player-driven
VANILLA GAMEPLAY – everything obtainable through standard Minecraft mechanics
It’s important to remember that your starting island does not define your destiny. Being on the same island does not automatically make you allies, and being separated does not make you enemies—the story is yours to create.
HOW DO I PARTICIPATE?
Icebound will be accesible for invited players from 12PM CET untill 12AM CET
Participation in Icebound is invitation-based:
The majority of the players must be invited by Orolz or Siemen, we will decide whoever can play with us, so be an active contributing member in the Hyvix community! (This will be mostly 50/50)
As a second bonus each staff member receives a +1 to invite in this limited time event. (BUT, this does not mean they will be playing on the same island for the first 6 days)
ARE YOU SHIVERING YET?
Hyvix’ Icebound is more than just an event, it’s a test of survival, creativity, and storytelling under extreme conditions. With only 1 life and endless possibilities, every decision matters.
While Nations Season 2 is on the horizon, Icebound offers a chance to dive into a fresh, high-stakes adventure. Step into the cold, shape your story, and see how long you can survive.
