Valheim server hosting
with every setting built in.

From $11/mo for a 4 GB server, $16.50 for 6 GB, or $22 for 8 GB — each a full 10-player world. Size up past that and the spare RAM runs a SECOND game beside it, on the same plan. A fresh world runs comfortably in ~2 GB and a mature one sits around 3–4 GB, so most groups never need the bigger tier. No setup fee, no upsells.

Yes — that's the whole point. You order, it provisions itself and boots, and you get a server to share. No port-forwarding, no leaving your PC on, no SSH — and every setting you'd normally hand-edit is a labeled field in your panel.

Honestly, "best" depends on what you want. Ours is for people who want full control without the config-file headache: every world modifier and admin setting is a labeled field in the panel, and it's built by the team behind the GamesOMG Valheim config tools. Your RAM is a hard, dedicated slice — we never oversell the box — and your CPU is a guaranteed share of a Ryzen 9 9950X that grows with your plan, so you get steady ticks and no noisy neighbors.

No. You never touch a config file or open a terminal. World modifiers, difficulty, raids and portals are labeled controls in your panel, and the admin, whitelist and ban lists are edited on the Players tab — one Steam ID per line. Change what you want, hit deploy, and the world restarts with your exact settings.

Every official world modifier and server flag, plus 26 advanced world keys — the -setkey surface most players have never seen: skill gain rate, enemy star rates, death penalties à la carte, fire spread, New Game+ world level. Each one is a labeled field, and we verified the server starts with it applied before listing it. Turning a key back off reverts the world to vanilla. If you find another panel that goes this deep, we'd genuinely like to see it.

Your server's files are yours — you can add mods through the panel's file manager, or keep it vanilla; your call. Either way your RAM is a hard, dedicated slice a neighbor can't reach, and your CPU share is sized to your plan, so we never oversell the box.

Any time. Open your panel, change a setting, hit deploy. There's no "submit a ticket to change a value" — the whole settings surface is yours.

Yes — crossplay is a labeled toggle in your panel. Flip it on, restart, and Xbox / Game Pass friends join with the in-game code. Flip it off for a Steam-only world. Either way it's your call, not a ticket.

Yes — upload it through the panel's file manager into the worlds folder, then set World name to match. A world saved by Valheim 1.0 is a folder: zip it, upload the zip, hit Extract. An older world is a .db and .fwl pair, and the game converts it the first time it loads. It works the other direction too: your world files are always yours to download. Exit insurance, included.

Yes — every night, automatically, to off-site storage on a separate network from your server (Cloudflare R2). You get last night's copy, two more we take for you before any game update, and three slots you fill yourself — six restore points, any of them one click to roll back or download, no ticket, no waiting. On by default, no extra cost, nothing to configure.

Only if you want it to. We built one-click scheduled restarts into the console — off, daily, or every 12 hours, at a time you pick in your own local time — so a long session never leaves the world sluggish and nobody has to remember. Crash-restart is on by default too, so a server that falls over comes back on its own, and you can always hit restart yourself.

NA East (Montreal) — on an AMD Ryzen 9950X with NVMe storage, a DDoS-protected network, and direct game ports (no Cloudflare proxy adding hops). One location today; more regions when enough people ask, not to pad a map.

Less than you'd think. A fresh world with a few friends runs in ~2 GB; a mature world with a full group sits around 3–4 GB. Valheim isn't a memory hog — we're not going to pretend you need 16.

Two things: how much you've built (every structure and item is an object the server has to simulate), and how many players are loading different corners of the map at once. A sprawling megabase with 10 people exploring everywhere is the heavy case; your usual crew on a normal world isn't.

4 GB genuinely covers the large majority of worlds — it's not a stripped tier, it's enough for most groups. 6 GB is for the headroom cases: big, heavily-built worlds and consistently-full 10-player lobbies. We allocate on the generous side on purpose, so your server isn't scraping the edge of what you paid for.

Probably Game - 6 — we'd rather say that than upsell you. Go Game - 8 if you're running a big established world, planning a huge base, or regularly filling all 10 slots. And if you start on Game - 6 and outgrow it, moving up is painless — so don't over-buy "just in case."
