Prices include everything, with nothing added at checkout. No VAT will be added to these prices. Each server is a subscription that renews automatically until you cancel, in one step in HQ; we email you before each renewal. Pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Founder offer: 10% off your first 12 months (on your first server only, for the first 200 accounts that pay, one per person; closes at 200 or on 31 March 2027). 72-hour full refund on your first purchase (one per customer). A thread is half of a processor core; bursts use idle processor time on the machine, so they aren’t guaranteed.
What you get on Valheim
Crossplay with a join code
Turn crossplay on in HQ’s server settings, and PC, Xbox and PS5 players join with the code HQ shows.
Thunderstore mods on BepInEx
Choose mods or a modpack in HQ. It installs BepInEx and the mods for you, and the Modded plan has room for big packs.
Safe to snapshot at any moment
Valheim writes a new save and swaps it in, and we save every 10 minutes instead of every 30.
Retested for 1.0
Valheim 1.0 and the Deep North arrived on 9 Sep 2026. We’re retesting install, ports and settings for it before launch.
A password made for you
HQ creates a strong server password for every new server. Change it whenever you like.
Snapshots to go back to
Turning crossplay on or off changes whether mods load. If it goes wrong, restore an hourly snapshot from the time machine.
On every Exclsv server
How players join
PC, Xbox and PS5 players can play together with crossplay on. They join with a join code instead of the address. Crossplay turns BepInEx mods off.
Mods and loaders
Pick mods or a Thunderstore modpack in HQ and it switches the server to BepInEx. Mods only load with crossplay off.
HQ stops the server, writes the file, checks it and starts it again. Each save can be undone on its own with Undo this change.
Valheim dedicated server: run it yourself or rent it?
Running it yourself
- The computer running the server has to stay on, and online, whenever anyone wants to play.
- Friends outside your home usually need ports opened on your router, and most home broadband addresses can change.
- The server shares your computer’s memory, processor and upload speed with everything else you run on it.
- Game updates, backups and fixing it when it won’t start are up to you.
Renting it from us
- Memory reserved for your server, never shared with other servers or oversold.
- Hourly snapshots kept for up to 48 hours, and encrypted off-site backups every 6 hours with 7 daily copies kept.
- Updates install automatically as soon as they’re out (or at your chosen time), with a snapshot first and one-click undo.
- Support from a person, by ticket or email.
- The crossplay join code shown in HQ, so Xbox and PS5 players can join.
Good to know before you buy
What Valheim on Exclsv can’t do, or does differently.
- Crossplay turns BepInEx mods off, so modded servers are for PC players only.
- Every plan has 10 slots, because that is Valheim’s player limit without mods.
- Turning crossplay on for a modded world can lose modded items. Restore an hourly snapshot if you need them back.
Questions about Valheim servers
Can I run a Valheim server that stays up when I’m offline?
Yes. That’s what a hosted server is for: the world runs in the UK whether or not anyone is playing.
Can Xbox and PS5 players join?
Yes, with crossplay on. They join with the join code shown in HQ. Crossplay turns mods off.
Why isn’t my server showing a join code?
The join code only exists with crossplay on. Turn it on in HQ’s server settings, and the code appears on your server’s Connect page.
Can I use mods?
Yes, on PC with crossplay off. Mods come from Thunderstore and run on BepInEx; the Modded plan has room for big packs.
Why does every plan have 10 slots?
Valheim allows 10 players without mods, so the plans differ by memory: vanilla, small mod packs and big BepInEx packs.
Can I bring my world from my own PC?
Yes. Upload it as a .zip in HQ under Backups, Bring your world, and HQ takes a snapshot first. Bigger worlds can go over SFTP.
