How to Rent a Server

Learn how to rent a private server for Conan Exiles. Discover the benefits, costs, and setup process to host your own game with friends without limitations.

Hey there! So you're looking to set up your own private server for Conan Exiles so you and your friends can play without any hassle? Awesome! When you host a game from your own PC or console, it's tied to your hardware. That means if your system goes offline, so does the server. Plus, there's usually this annoying invisible tether that keeps everyone close to the host. Renting a server completely solves this. Your game will be hosted remotely, and you won't have to worry about that tether messing with your adventures.

Renting a server is actually pretty straightforward. You'll want to head over to a site that's known for reliable hosting, like GPORTAL. Once you're there, make sure you pick the right platform – PC, PlayStation, and Xbox all have separate servers, so this is super important. After that, you'll see the pricing. For a server that can handle ten players online at the same time, you're looking at about $14 USD for thirty days. You can totally rent for longer periods, and those longer packages usually come with some nice discounts compared to paying month-to-month.

Need something bigger? No problem. You can customize your server to fit more players, but just a heads-up, each extra player slot will increase the rental cost because it's more load on the server. Once you've picked your server and paid up, you get to tweak everything. You can change all the game settings just like you would when starting a regular single-player or co-op game. You can also set a server password to keep randoms out, add mods, and even schedule server wipes or backups right from the rental website. When you're all set and ready to jump in, just search for your server name in the 'Play online' menu, and you're good to go!
