If you're a beginner, templates are recommended
If you're setting up a rental server or a multi-game server for the first time, it's recommended to rent a rental server with templates. Without templates, you'll need networking knowledge, making the process of setting up a server complex.
If you plan to use it for other games, check for templates
If you plan to use the rental server not only for Palworld but also for other games, check if the target game has templates. It's possible to set up a server even without templates, but it's complex and difficult, so it's not recommended.
Adjust Server Specs based on the number of players
| Memory | Recommended number of players |
|---|---|
| 8GB | Recommended for playing with 4-6 people |
| 16GB | Recommended for playing with 7 or more people |
Adjust the server's specs based on the number of players. If you have enough budget, it is recommended to choose a plan with higher memory capacity. This way, you can accommodate more players and set up the server comfortably even for high-load games.

Contract a Rental Server
Rent a rental server that will serve as the main server. It is recommended to choose a plan with high memory capacity, adjusting it according to the number of people.
Perform Server Configuration and Installation
Once you have rented a rental server, proceed with the initial configuration and game server setup. If there are templates available for the rental server, you can easily configure them by following the dedicated settings for each.

Start the Server
After completing the initial configuration, start the server. To access the server, you will need the IP and port number of the rental server, so it is recommended to make a note of them in advance.
Access or Test the Server
Once the server is started, test whether you can connect to the server. If you are unable to access the server for reasons other than game issues, check the IP and port number. If they are correct, there is a high possibility that the server-side configuration is incorrect, so it is advisable to review it.
Sharing IP and Port Number
Once you have confirmed the connection to the server, share the IP and port number of the rental server with the people you want to play with. Since the server is running, you can connect 24 hours a day and enjoy the game at your own pace.
Benefits of Renting a Server
24/7 Connectivity
By setting up a dedicated server on a rental server, you can connect to the world 24/7 even if no one else is connected. In Multiplayer without using a server, it is impossible to connect without a world administrator. However, with a rental server, you can play anytime.
Play with More Than 4 Friends
In Multiplayer, without using a server, the limit is 4 players. However, by setting up a dedicated server on a rental server or similar, you can play with more than 4 friends. The maximum number of connections for a dedicated server is up to 32 players, so you can easily connect with tons of friends.
Easy Setup with Templates
If there are templates available on the rental server, setting up a dedicated server becomes easier than setting it up at home. By skipping the detailed settings, you can quickly set up a server, allowing for multiplayer gameplay immediately after signing the contract.
