Why Not Just Run It Yourself?

About Palworld
Palworld is an open-world survival and crafting game from Pocketpair in which players catch creatures called Pals, then fight, farm, build and work alongside them across the Palpagos Islands. Pals aren't just companions in battle: assign them to your base and they'll mine, log, craft, cook and generate power while you explore.
Palworld entered Early Access on 19 January 2024 and became one of the biggest launches on Steam, selling more than eight million copies there in under six days. Pocketpair reported more than 32 million players across PC and consoles by its first anniversary. Crossplay between PC and consoles arrived in March 2025, including on dedicated servers.
Version 1.0 left Early Access on 10 July 2026. It added 72 new Pals, bringing the total to 287, two new regions in the floating Sunreach islands and the endgame World Tree, a level cap raised from 65 to 80, and new systems including Mutations through breeding and Awakening with Radiant Gems.
A dedicated server keeps your world online when the host isn't playing, so everyone's bases keep running and your Pals keep working. With up to 32 players per server, big bases full of working Pals and lots of players exploring at once, single-core speed and RAM both matter.

Amazing Help from Stefan. The customer service was great and answered all my questions as well setting up my Dedicated server with the mods I wanted.
Really recommend this company. The last few days they have helped me set up my Rust server! Stuff I couldnt do they set it up for me. Really highly recommend! 10/10
I currently run Empyrion, Ark and TS3 servers with Pingperfect.com and can't say enough good things about their service and support. The servers run fast and trouble free, well except for the Ark server but that's the developers and modders causing the problems there. The few times I have needed help the support team has been quick and helpful.
i have had nothing but good experiences on ping perfect.Really responsive support team who are beyond helpful and more than polite. their service is easy to navigate and has anything you could possibly need. loving ping perfect.
Been with Pingperfect for a solid 2,5 years now and been hosting servers for Killing Floor, always quick on the tickets, servers are always running and with a good performance. They have been expanding and keep improving their whole company so 5/5 for PingPerfect!

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I join my Palworld server?▾
On PC, choose Join Multiplayer Game and enter the IP address and port from your Gamepanel in the box at the bottom of the screen. Xbox and PS5 players find the server by name in the community server list, once crossplay is enabled. The full steps are in the how to join section above.
How many players can join a Palworld server?▾
Up to 32 players, the most a Palworld dedicated server supports. Our plans cover 8, 16 and 32 players, each on Normal or Extreme hardware. Extreme's faster CPUs help keep big worlds full of working Pals running smoothly.
Is my server updated for Palworld 1.0?▾
Yes. Servers update from the Gamepanel, and you can schedule automatic updates so the server stays on the same version as your players after each patch.
Will my Early Access save work in 1.0?▾
Existing saves carry over, but 1.0 adds new regions, Pals and systems, so many groups choose a fresh world. Our Gamepanel can back up your current world and wipe it in one click, so you can keep the old save in case you want it back.
Can Xbox and PS5 players join my server?▾
Yes. Palworld dedicated servers support crossplay between Steam, Xbox and PS5. Console players join through the in-game community server list. See our crossplay guide.
Can I use mods on my Palworld server?▾
Yes, on PC. Install UE4SS from the Mod Manager in one click, then upload your mods. Every player needs the same mods installed on their own PC. Console players can't use PC mods, so keep a crossplay server vanilla. See our mod guide.
Can I upload my single-player world?▾
Yes. Upload your save via FTP or the file manager. Only the world transfers, not your player character, so you'll create a new character on the server. Our save upload guide covers the steps.
Can I change XP, capture and breeding rates?▾
Yes. Edit PalWorldSettings.ini from the Gamepanel to change experience, capture, egg hatching and drop rates, day length, difficulty and much more. See our settings guide and config file reference.
How do I make my server PvP?▾
Switch PvP on in your server settings and restart. Our PvP guide has the steps.
How do I add an admin or set a password?▾
Set an admin password in the Commandline Manager, then type /AdminPassword followed by that password in game. See our admin guide, admin commands and server password guide.
