SLASHPLAY runs dedicated Palworld servers: a world that belongs to the group, not to whoever happens to be hosting tonight. Deploy one, share the address, and your friends join from Palworld’s multiplayer menu. It runs only while you play, and stopping it saves the world and its settings.

Pick the right size
Palworld is a heavy game to host. SLASHPLAY sizes it for LARGE (4 CPU, 8 GB), and the 12 tokens an hour on its card on the Deploy tab is the LARGE price. The deploy window starts on SMALL, the smallest size Palworld can run on, so change the size to LARGE before you click deploy.
| Size | CPU | Memory | Cost per hour |
|---|---|---|---|
| SMALL | 1 | 2 GB | 3 tokens ($0.03) |
| MEDIUM | 2 | 4 GB | 6 tokens ($0.06) |
| LARGE | 4 | 8 GB | 12 tokens ($0.12) |
| XLARGE | 8 | 16 GB | 24 tokens ($0.24) |
These are the same prices as for every other game. The smaller sizes cost less but give Palworld far less memory than it’s set up for. If a server runs out of memory, it stops, and the server page tells you so and suggests a bigger size. Consider XLARGE for a busy server or an old world with many bases. You can change the size whenever the server is stopped. See Server sizes.
How joining works
There’s no one-click join for Palworld. The invite page shows the address with Copy address (and the password, if you turned one on). Your friends then paste it into Palworld themselves. In game, the server is called SlashPlay Palworld.
Your world’s files
The world (Pal/Saved/SaveGames) and the server’s settings folder (Pal/Saved/Config/LinuxServer) are part of every save. You can browse them with the file manager (Advanced → Files), and change the world’s rules in PalWorldSettings.ini: see World settings. See The file manager.
