What is Dragonwilds?

Dragonwilds is a standalone survival co-op game set in the RuneScape universe by Jagex. Up to 6 players explore, craft, build and fight together. Unlike traditional RuneScape, Dragonwilds uses real-time combat and a fully 3D open world.

Server Requirements

  • RAM: 2 GB base + 1 GB per player (8 GB for a full 6-player server)
  • OS: 64-bit Windows or Linux
  • Storage: at least 10 GB NVMe

Setting Up on HostValues

  1. Order a game server from HostValues with at least 8 GB RAM
  2. Log in to the game panel
  3. Start the server and wait for the initial world generation
  4. Share your server IP and port with friends

Configuration

The server config file lets you set the world name, password, max players and difficulty. Access it via SFTP after the first start.

Crossplay

Dragonwilds 1.0 supports crossplay between all platforms. Console players connect through the in-game server browser using the server name or direct IP.
