How we estimate and compare

We update prices and availability monthly. Plans without a confirmed current price or complete hardware details remain visible. We flag their open details on the offer. Historical configurations are not current performance guarantees and are not included in player recommendations. Specific price, term and capacity filters only consider matching known details. For the default configuration, the stated slot limit of the plan counts first, then an explicit host recommendation. If both are missing, we use a cautious RAM planning range and, for the filter, its lower end. Slot limits allow connections but do not prove hardware performance. We label recommendations and price tables with their respective origin. Mods have their own RAM assumptions. Mods, view distance, world size and shared CPU time can increase requirements. Fixed daily intervals are converted to an average calendar month for price ordering. Connection slots are not a performance promise. An independent load test on the offered servers is still pending.

More about the game

Rent a Core Keeper server: choose platform and world together

If you want to rent a Core Keeper server, first clarify which version your group uses and which world you want to explore together. A new run can start right away with agreed settings. For an established base, a clean save import matters more. Check these points before a longer booking so you don’t find out only after setup that the offer doesn’t suit your existing game.

Fireshine describes crossplay between PC platforms via PlayFab. This should be distinguished from a connection between PC and consoles, which the publisher says is not supported. A dedicated server does not automatically lift this limit. Tell the host your actual platforms and check whether their offer supports the PC network configuration you need. For a mixed group, this matters more than a particularly high advertised slot count.

Upload a save game and activate the correct world slot

When transferring an existing Core Keeper world, the file and the selected world slot must match. Nodecraft documents both the world upload and the subsequent selection in the panel. Check with your host how this process is implemented and whether you can back up existing files beforehand. A successfully completed upload alone does not prove that the correct world will load on the next start.

After the move, test joining, important builds and the state of your shared exploration. Keep the original until the group has successfully used the new server. Also clarify which settings are accessible for a new world and how the host handles existing worlds. If you only want to change one option, be careful not to accidentally create a new world or overwrite the existing slot.

Weigh growth, access and ongoing costs

For a long-term run, regular backups and a traceable export are important. Ask about retention period, restoration and access to the configuration. If you want to use mods, name your specific selection. Support for the game itself is not a blanket guarantee for every extension. After changes, check together whether all participants can get back into the intended world.

Judge the plan by how many people can be active at the same time, the world you have, and the documented resources. Slots limit connections but do not replace information about computing power. A short initial term helps you test import and playing together in practice. Then compare the amount due, renewal and upgrade options. Switching hosts at the end should remain possible through your secured world data, without your progress depending on access to a single panel.

Sources and technical basics

Frequently asked questions about Core Keeper Game Server

Can a Core Keeper rental server connect PC and console?

According to Fireshine, crossplay between PC and console is not supported. PC platforms can join together via PlayFab. Check the correct network configuration of the rental offer for your specific group.

Why does a different Core Keeper world appear after my world upload?

In addition to the upload, the server must load the correct world slot. Check the file and slot selection using your host's instructions. Back up existing data before making changes and test the start before you shut down the old server.

What should I back up before switching Core Keeper hosts?

Download the correct world and the associated server settings. Also note the world slot used and any mods if applicable. After the import, check together whether the base and progress match the expected state.
