Hello, fellow dwellers of the sky islands!The promised map rotation for Skywars Solo & Doubles has finally arrived! We are sorry it took a little longer than expected as we have been working hard on improving our building process to make we can commit to offering regular map rotation for Skywars without affecting map releases for other games.The first rotation is already live, and alongside Hibiscus which we gave a sneak peek at last week there is plenty more, so make sure to continue reading to see all the new and returning maps for this rotation.Alongside the previously announced map Hibiscus we also wanted to start the first rotation off with a bang and bring three more new maps:We created a thread last week which you can see here https://hypixel.net/threads/skywars-map-packs-and-map-rotation.1692783/ to find out which maps you the community would like to see return, and there were lots of requests. Although we couldn't bring every map back this rotation, we will be rotating in more over the coming months with your help.To make room for new and returning maps, it does mean that some will be coming out of rotation today. That allows us to improve map availability and server performance by reducing the number of active maps to 24-32 per rotation down from over 40.Maps leaving rotation this month are Frostbite, Submerged, Sanctuary, Desserted Islands, Entangled, Steampunk, Aquarius, Tiki, and Onion Ring 2. Reminder: These maps will return in future rotations so if your favorite map is removed, don't worry, It will be back!Our main aim is to keep SkyWars feeling fresh on each rotation. We will be listening to community feedback to make sure we deliver that.Thanks!
