    A Palworld world that never logs off

    In a co-op world, the game stops when the host closes it, and only four players fit. A Palworld dedicated server runs on its own, holds up to 32 players and keeps your bases, Pals and progress waiting for whoever logs in next.

    Your server runs on AMD 9950X/7950X3D processors with DDR5 RAM and Samsung NVMe storage, sits behind DDoS protection and is ready within 60 seconds after payment. Share the address and port from the panel and your group can join.

    Set your own rates in PalWorldSettings.ini

    Almost everything about a Palworld server is in one file, PalWorldSettings.ini. Copy the default options into it, change the values and restart the server.

    The settings people change first

    • ExpRate, PalCaptureRate and PalSpawnNumRate for faster or slower progress.
    • DeathPenalty to choose what players drop when they fall.
    • ServerName, ServerPassword and ServerPlayerMaxNum for who can join.
    • AdminPassword to unlock admin commands in the chat.

    Edit the file in the panel's file manager or over sFTP. Make a backup before you change a running world.

    Restarts, saves and a healthy server

    A Palworld server uses more memory the longer it runs and the bigger your bases get. Many owners restart once a day to start fresh, and the panel's Schedules can do that for you at a quiet hour.

    • Schedule a daily restart, and a backup just before it.
    • Use admin commands such as /Save before you stop the server by hand.
    • Keep a backup from before every game update, so you can roll back if a save misbehaves.

    Moving a co-op world to the server

    You can bring a world from your own PC. The host's character is saved differently in co-op, so moving it takes a few extra steps. Our support team can walk you through it.

    Playing Palworld together

    Friends join from the game's server list with your server's address and port. Set a server password if you want to keep it to your group, or leave it open for a community.

    • A few friends catching Pals together fit well on the 8 GB plan.
    • A full server of 32 with large bases also runs on the 8 GB plan; a daily restart keeps memory in check.
    • Need a hand with settings or a stubborn save? Our support team is available 24/7/365.

    How much RAM does a Palworld server need?

    Palworld needs at least 8 GB of RAM on our list, so it runs on every plan from 8 GB up. The real number depends on how your world grows:

    • More players exploring different parts of the map at the same time.
    • Large bases with many Pals working, which the server has to simulate.
    • Long uptimes, since memory use climbs until the next restart.

    We don't cap slots, so RAM is what sets your ceiling. 8 GB is the right size for a Palworld server, from a small group to a full world. For the full picture, read how much RAM a Palworld server needs.

    Hardware we own, in Dallas and Amsterdam

    Your Palworld world runs on servers we bought and manage ourselves. Every plan uses AMD 9950X/7950X3D processors up to 5.7Ghz and DDR5 RAM, so busy bases full of working Pals stay smooth, and Samsung NVMe storage keeps saves and restarts quick.

    Your server lives in Dallas, TX (United States) or Amsterdam (Netherlands), on a 10 Gbps network backed by UPS power and advanced cooling, with DDoS protection in front of it.

    Palworld hosting questions

    Can't find your answer? Ask our support team.

    How fast is my Palworld server ready?

    Your Palworld server is ready within 60 seconds after payment. Start it from the panel, then open PalWorldSettings.ini to set your rates before friends join.

    How many players can join a Palworld server?

    A Palworld dedicated server holds up to 32 players, set with ServerPlayerMaxNum. We don't add a slot cap of our own, so your RAM sets how many can play smoothly.

    How do I change the rates on my Palworld server?

    Edit PalWorldSettings.ini in the file manager or over sFTP. Change values such as ExpRate, PalCaptureRate or DeathPenalty, save the file and restart the server.

    How much RAM do I need for Palworld?

    Palworld needs at least 8 GB of RAM, so it runs on our 8 GB plan and everything above it. Full servers and large bases need more, and memory use grows until the server restarts. There is no slot limit, so RAM is what sets your ceiling.

    Can I move my co-op world to the server?

    Yes. Upload the world through the file manager or over sFTP. The host's character is saved differently in co-op, so it takes a few extra steps. Our support team can help.

    How do I become an admin on my server?

    Set AdminPassword in PalWorldSettings.ini, restart, then type /AdminPassword followed by your password in the game chat. Admin commands such as /Save, /KickPlayer and /BanPlayer then work for you.

    Should I restart my Palworld server every day?

    Many owners do, because memory use grows the longer the server runs. Use Schedules in our panel to restart it at a quiet hour, with a backup just before.

    Where are your Palworld servers hosted?

    In Dallas, TX (United States) and Amsterdam (Netherlands), on hardware we own in both locations. Both run AMD 9950X/7950X3D CPUs with DDR5 RAM, and the Location Changer moves your server between them.
