Need more than 8 GB? We’ll build you a custom server →
Lag-free, even under attack.
Game servers are DDoS magnets: a rival server, a banned player or a bored kid can flood yours. Every Nxeon game server sits behind the Nxeon Shield, so attack traffic is scrubbed before it ever reaches your world.
Diagram: traffic from the internet passes through Cloudflare, AWS Shield, Azure DDoS Protection, OVHcloud VAC and NX Sentinel. Attack traffic is removed at each layer, and only clean traffic reaches your isolated server.

The questions people ask right before they start.
Is there a player limit?
No player cap from us — up to 10, Valheim's own maximum. Every plan's player number is only a recommendation for smooth performance on that plan's memory and CPU; you set your server's own max players in Settings.
Which size do I need?
Valheim comes in 2 sizes: 4 GB (recommended for about 10 players) at $9.99 a month (first term, then $14.38) and 8 GB (recommended for about 10 players) at $16.99 a month (first term, then $24.46). The picker above recommends one for your player count and mods, and you can resize later.
Will my server lag?
Your server runs on NVMe hardware, and the size picker recommends enough memory for your players and mods. If you grow, resize from the panel in a click.
What happens if my server gets attacked?
Every game server sits behind the Nxeon Shield: five layers of DDoS filtering that scrub attack traffic before it reaches your world.
Are my worlds backed up?
Switch on scheduled backups in your server’s panel and it keeps the last 2 daily restore points, ready to roll back to.
Can I install mods and plugins?
Yes. Pick Vanilla or BepInEx when you deploy, then add supported mods from NxLabs to your server in one click, or upload your own files.
Can I change size later?
Yes. Resize from the panel whenever your community is ready.
Where are the servers?
Valheim servers run in Singapore, Canada and Germany. Pick the region closest to most of your players when you deploy.
Can my friends on console join my Valheim server?
New Valheim servers start with crossplay switched on, so Xbox and PlayStation players can join the same server as PC players. You can switch it off any time in Settings.
Can I add mods to a new Valheim server?
Yes. New servers start on BepInEx, the mod loader, so mods work from the first start. Mods that change gameplay need the same version on every player's PC, and the install screen warns you before you add one.
Do you offer custom servers for big communities?
Yes. If you need more than 8 GB, a network of linked servers or dedicated hardware, talk to us and we’ll size and quote a custom setup.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. There’s no lock-in.
Your world is waiting.
Live in about a minute. DDoS protection and daily restore points included. Cancel anytime.
