High-performance Valheim dedicated server hosting powered by high-frequency CPUs, NVMe storage, and DDoS protection. BepInEx mod support is included by default, so you can run vanilla or modded worlds from day one.
Select your preferred server location, then pick the plan that fits your group
Player counts are estimates. Valheim's memory usage grows with world size, explored area, and built structures. Modded servers using BepInEx plugins will need more RAM per player, so we recommend the 5GB plan for modded worlds.
Every Valheim server ships ready for mods with no extra setup required
Run a standard Valheim dedicated server exactly as Iron Gate intended. Set your world name, seed, password, and server visibility, then invite friends to explore, build, and take on the Forsaken together. Keep your world across game updates with automatic server file updates.
BepInEx is the standard modding framework for Valheim and is installed on every server by default. Upload plugins from Thunderstore or Nexus Mods to the BepInEx plugins folder using the file manager or SFTP, restart, and your mods are live. Popular mods like Valheim Plus, Jotunn-based content packs, and quality-of-life plugins all work out of the box.
Manage your server from our custom game panel with live console output, a browser-based file manager, one-click restarts, and scheduled backups. Adjust startup settings such as world name, password, crossplay, and public listing without editing config files by hand.
There is nothing to install or enable. BepInEx is preloaded on every Valheim server, so you can drop plugin files into the plugins folder and restart. Prefer vanilla? Simply leave the plugins folder empty and the server behaves exactly like an unmodded install.

Everything you need to know about hosting a Valheim server with ExtraVM
Valheim is a Viking-themed survival and exploration game developed by Iron Gate Studio, set in a procedurally generated purgatory inspired by Norse mythology. Players gather resources, craft gear, build longhouses and ships, and sail between biomes to defeat the Forsaken bosses. A dedicated Valheim server keeps your world online around the clock so friends can drop in whenever they like, with no one needing to host from their own PC. ExtraVM runs Valheim on high-frequency CPUs with fast NVMe storage, which keeps large, heavily built worlds responsive as they grow.
Valheim's server relies heavily on single-thread CPU performance, especially as players build large bases and explore more of the map. Our servers run on high performance AMD and Intel CPUs, so your world stays smooth through boss fights, big builds, and busy evenings with the whole group online.
Every Valheim server comes with BepInEx preinstalled, so modding is as simple as uploading plugin files and restarting. Run quality-of-life tweaks, new biomes and creatures, or full overhaul packs. For modded worlds we recommend the 5GB plan to give plugins the extra headroom they need.
Deploy your Valheim server in the United States, Europe (Germany), Singapore, or Australia (Sydney). Choose the location closest to your player base for the lowest latency. Pricing is the same in every region, and all locations run on the same high-frequency hardware.
Deploy your Valheim server today and start exploring, building, and conquering the Forsaken with friends.
