Good news for those who nostalgically remember logging onto the family computer in 2005 to play Habbo Hotel

Habbo Hotel: Origins is a faithful remake of one of the game's earliest versions from around 2005.

This version was supposedly found on an old server, complete with many long-lost files intact.  

The classic experience will be accessible directly from the Habbo Hotel: Origins website via a browser and will feature three different hotels in English, Portuguese, and Spanish.

The Origins version will have less moderation than the current game and will be restricted to users aged 18 and above, which should encompass anyone who originally visited the hotel in 2005. Avatar names will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Habbo Hotel was perhaps the gateway for many kids in the 2000s to online interaction
