DayZ Server Hosting

Choose a plan and a location above, check out, then set your map in Basic Settings and restart. Share the IP and port, and your friends can join.

Plans come in 8 GB, 10 GB or 12 GB, or a custom size up to 22 GB. Vanilla fits the smaller sizes, and a long Workshop list needs more room. You can upgrade later and keep your world: the server restarts to apply it.

On six continents: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Oceania and Africa. The map above shows your ping to each one, and the price is the same everywhere.

In DayZ, open Servers, choose Direct Connect and enter your IP and port. On a modded server everyone needs the same mods, and the server list shows which. How to connect.

Stop the server, then search the Workshop in the Mods tab and click Install. Whatever it depends on comes along, and the panel copies the keys and fills in Basic Settings for you. Start it again, and everyone joining subscribes to the same items on Steam. Ping AI can also add one from the panel chat. Mod Manager guide.

With the server stopped, the Mods tab marks anything out of date, and its Update button pulls the new files. Restart when the download finishes. Anyone still getting a mismatch can unsubscribe and subscribe again in Steam. Updating mods.

Yes. The disable3rdPerson line in serverDZ.cfg decides it: 1 locks everyone to first person, 0 allows third person. Put it in a serverDZ.cfg template in Config Manager, enable the template and restart. An active template replaces Basic Settings, so set your map in the template too.

The Central Economy files in your mission folder decide it. types.xml lists each item and how many of it should be in the world. Stop the server, edit the file in File Manager or over SFTP, then restart.

Yes. Nasdara is one of four preset missions in Basic Settings, next to Chernarus, Livonia and Sakhal. Pick it and restart. Bohemia released DayZ Badlands, the expansion that adds it, on 15 October 2026.

Yes. It takes two downloads: the map from the Steam Workshop and its mission folder from the author’s page. With the server stopped, upload both over SFTP and add the map folder to the Mods line. The Mission field takes any mission name, so type in the new one and restart. Custom map guide.

Yes. Your saves live in the mission folder under mpmissions. Stop the server, upload your copy over SFTP in place of the files there, and restart. Some Workshop content and custom maps keep data elsewhere, so check with the author.

Yes, free on every plan. Our engineers copy your saves over, check them and hand you the new IP, and your old server keeps running until then. Whether your mods and configs come along depends on the migration method. How free migration works.

No, there is no crossplay on your server. Your PingPlayers DayZ server is PC only, for DayZ on Steam, so console players cannot join it, and neither can the PC Game Pass version, which runs the Xbox build.

Your saved world stays as it is. About a minute after the last person leaves, the Central Economy goes idle (IdleModeCountdown, 60 seconds by default) and starts again when someone joins.

Yes. Every server comes with a 24-hour money-back guarantee. If the server is not right for you, talk to support on live chat or email.

In My Servers, open the three dots on the server card, choose Billing, then View options next to Renewal settings and cancellation, and click Cancel Subscription. The server stays active until the end of the period you paid for.

Yes, with SharePay. After signup the panel gives you a link, and each person pays their share without making an account.

Yes, and switching is free on games your plan has the memory for. Ask support before you switch so you know what happens to your DayZ files.
