Hypixel.net is both their website and mc server adress.
Is it just that https is on port 443 and minecraft is on port 25565?
And if that is the case, can i do something similar by making a reverse proxy have two seperate server blocks for the one domain, with different ports?
Maybe most smaller ones have hosted both things separately, e.g… with a dedicated minecraft server hoster and a common website-building+hosting service, and don’t want to run an extra server for a proxy just for this.
With bigger servers (eg. Hypixel, 2b2t) or selfhosted servers (eg. mine), everything is on the same physical (or virtual) machine anyway and therefore everything has the same address, so you wouldn’t even need a proxy.

Thanks, that’s what i figured.
I got confused by so many game servers using seperate domains for the site and server, i assumed there was a good reason for that
Nope. Just ports and an A Record.

Flexibility. Maybe they get a hosting package that includes domain registration and hosting, but they can’t put anything else under that name.
