Palworld server hosting that survives the memory leak

Palworld's dedicated server is famous for two things: being fun with friends, and eating RAM until it falls over. You pick how many friends can join; we leave the memory uncapped, watch it for you, schedule the restarts, and put an AI co-admin in your Discord so nobody has to learn RCON.

  • Live in under 60 seconds — pick a region, name it, play
  • Automatic scheduled restarts (the memory leak fix) on by default
  • Change any world setting from the panel — no editing PalWorldSettings.ini by hand
  • AI co-admin in Discord: restart, check who's online, roll back a save, diagnose a crash
  • Xbox/Game Pass crossplay supported on dedicated servers since the official update

Provisioning starts while you confirm your email. The dashboard shows the address the moment it exists.

An admin that reads the logs

The CouchRaid co-admin in your Discord explains crashes from the real log, restarts, restores and schedules. You confirm the scary stuff.

Your world stays yours

3 backup slots with one-click restore, full file access through the panel, and you can download your save any time.

Things Palworld server owners learn the hard way

  • Palworld saves only every 30 seconds by default; if players lose progress on crash, lower AutoSaveSpan in world settings.
  • If the server 'disappears' from the community list, it is usually still joinable by IP — the list is slow.

Palworld hosting FAQ

How much RAM does a Palworld server need?

You don't pick a RAM size with CouchRaid. RAM is uncapped and shared across the node, and we watch it for you; the thing you pick is how many friends can join (player slots). Palworld's memory grows the longer it runs, so daily restarts are on by default — you can change the time or turn them off.

Do I need the game to host a server?

No. The dedicated server is free software from the developer; you only need Palworld to play on it.

Can console or Game Pass players join?

Yes — Palworld added crossplay for dedicated servers. Players join by server name/IP from the multiplayer menu.

Can I move my existing world over?

Yes. Upload your save folder through the file manager (or ask the co-admin to walk you through it), then restart. Keep a backup first — the panel makes one in a click.

What's the 2-day free trial?

A real 2-slot server for 48 hours, no credit card. Need a bit longer? Extend it once by 24 hours from the dashboard. Keep it by adding a card before it expires; otherwise it's paused and deleted after 7 days.

Ready when your friends are.

48 hours free on the Duo plan, then from $5.99/mo.
