What this mod does
Aures – Rare Monsters, by BlackAuresArt, populates the world of Hytale with uncommon creatures that aren’t just copies of the game’s own: they have their own models, animations and random colors, plus faster, more aggressive combat. Each one lives in a specific biome and drops special loot, the idea being that taking risks pays off more than farming. Its file for Update 6 (0.6) is from August 28, 2026.
Some of the creatures
- Snow werewolf (Northern Lands and Snowy Wastes): the toughest. With a mysterious meat treat, cooked at the chef’s stove, you can tame it and ride it. Its throat, together with a piece of raw meat, summons allied young wolves.
- Rusty machine (abandoned mines): drops a drill for mining stone in large quantities.
- Silver Horn (northern forests): its skull glows and works as decoration or for crafting a helmet.
- Golden antelope (savannas and deserts): if you sneak up while it’s sleeping, you can climb onto its back.
- Plus a cursed bear, a monstrous bat, a strange rabbit, old Mosshorn of the swamps and an egg thief you can trade with.
Who it’s for
For anyone who already knows the game’s wildlife and wants new encounters while exploring, with mounts and loot that are worth it. According to the author, it works in new worlds and existing saves, and it can be removed or added without issues. It doesn’t need other mods.
Checked on October 20, 2026: the author hasn’t yet released a file on CurseForge tagged for Hytale 0.7 (Update 7). We’ll check again and update this page as soon as it’s out.
