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 Valheim server: a world for your Viking group

A dedicated server makes your Valheim world reachable without a player having to keep the game open. For choosing, the supported game version, location and access to your world matter. Besides price, compare whether the panel supports crossplay, world imports and the required startup options.

Check crossplay and mods separately

Iron Gate describes a separate crossplay mode for the dedicated server. Without this setting, the server uses the Steam backend. If your group uses different platforms, the host must enable the matching configuration. Mods are a separate decision: check the required client extensions and whether your platforms are compatible, rather than assuming crossplay and mod support from a general marketing promise.

Builds, backups and term

A large, densely built world has different requirements than a fresh world for occasional evenings. More listed RAM can create headroom, but it is no guarantee of simulation performance. It is also important that you can download world files and backups. Compare backup retention, restore options and the total amount due. When moving a world, servers and game clients should use the same compatible version.

Sources and technical basics

Frequently asked questions about Valheim Game Server

Can our group play together across different platforms?

The dedicated server must run on the crossplay backend. Check current platform support and the matching option with the host. The Steam-only mode is not enough for this.

Can I upload my local Valheim world?

This depends on the host's file access and import process. Back up the world before moving it and transfer the related world files together. The host's guide should explain the import and restore process.

Are automatic saves already a complete backup?

A backup on the same machine does not protect against every failure or an ended plan. Check downloadable copies and retention with the host, and keep your own copy.
