In Hytale, beds are a key quality-of-life item. While bedrolls cover early survival, a full bed gives you a more permanent sleeping and respawn solution once you’ve gathered basic materials.

Materials needed to craft a bed
Before crafting, gather the following:
| Material | How to obtain | Amount |

| Light Hide | Hunt small animals like rabbits or bears | 2 |
| Plant Fiber | Break grass in the world | 3 |
Light Hide is the limiting resource, so focus on low-threat wildlife early.
How to craft a bed in Hytale
Explore nearby areas and hunt small animals until you collect 2x Light Hide. Collect 3x Plant Fiber by breaking patches of grass around your base.

Return to your base and press Tab to open the crafting menu. Locate and select the Bed recipe.

Craft the bed once all materials are available. The bed is added directly to your inventory.
How to place and use a bed
Select the bed in your hotbar. Right-click on flat ground to place the bed.

Press F while targeting the bed to rename it if you want to keep track of multiple beds or respawn points. Wait until it is fully night.

Interact with the bed to sleep and skip the night. Sleeping also sets your respawn point to that bed.
Common issues when using a bed

Beds are a simple but essential survival upgrade in Hytale. Once crafted, they give you control over the day–night cycle and a reliable respawn point, making exploration and progression far less risky.
