Cheapest game server I've bought and it hasn't skipped a beat through three boss fights with a full lobby.

Bumped up to the higher-RAM tier once our base sprawled out and it was a one-click resize, no downtime drama.

FTP backup before a boss attempt saved our world after a bad pull. Exactly what I wanted control over.

FAQ

Questions, answered

What is Core Keeper?+

Core Keeper is a top-down survival sandbox where you dig through procedurally-generated caverns, mine and craft, build bases, and fight bosses — alone or in co-op with friends.

Which plan do I need?+

The 2 GB / 6-player plan at $4.99 is a budget-friendly start for a small crew. The 4 GB / 8-player plan at $7.99 is our popular pick for a full expedition. The 6 GB / 8-player plan at $11.99 keeps the same player cap but adds RAM headroom for sprawling bases deep underground.

Can I name my world and back it up myself?+

Yes. You can set a custom world name on deploy, and every plan includes full FTP access so you can back up your save or add community content directly.

Is this a managed server or a VPS I set up myself?+

It's a fully managed Core Keeper server — no operating system to install. Order a plan and it's provisioned and online in minutes, ready to connect to.

How quickly is my server ready?+

Setup is instant — your Core Keeper server is provisioned and online within minutes of ordering, so your crew can start digging the same day.
