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 Sons of the Forest server: make your island reachable long term

A Sons of the Forest server keeps your shared island reachable regardless of the previous host’s computer. This is helpful when friends want to build or explore at different times. Before choosing a plan, decide whether you’re starting fresh or want to take over an existing multiplayer world. This difference determines which files and settings you need at launch.

For your round, compare the slots offered, the location and the management options. An accessible startup log helps if the server runs but is missing from the list or loads a different world. Also clarify how updates and restarts are announced. A permanently reachable instance needs a reliable process for the saved world.

Look at world progress and characters separately

For the import, EmeraldHost describes a complete multiplayer save and assignment to the matching save slot. The folder name and the server setting must match. A single archive or any JSON file does not replace the full set. Stop both instances before the transfer and keep the original state until you have checked the move.

World structures and world state are not the same as inventory and personal character progress. The documented world transfer therefore does not automatically guarantee an identical character for every player. After the import, first check the correct island and your buildings, then the personal data. This separation prevents a partly successful move from being considered complete too quickly.

Continue, save and restore

In the server configuration, SaveSlot and how existing saves are handled are key settings. Have it shown to you how an existing save is continued and when a new world is created. The behavior when the server is empty should also suit your group. Availability and continuous playtime are two different decisions that not every round wants to make the same way.

Before a long rental period, check whether full backups can be downloaded and restored. Also back up the server settings and note the game version used. A controlled first test with two players uncovers wrong world assignment or missing character progress faster than a later move after many more building evenings. Then compare total price, renewal and actual contract term.

Sources and technical basics

Frequently asked questions about Sons of the Forest Game Server

Can I take over an existing Sons of the Forest world?

A documented import route exists for multiplayer saves. Upload the complete associated folder and assign the correct save slot.

Do all inventories stay intact when moving the world?

Not automatically. World state and personal character data are separate; check both after the import and back up the original state.

Does the world keep running when nobody is online?

The server configuration affects behavior when the server is empty. Clarify the specific settings with the host instead of equating reachability with continuous playtime.
