Forge Your Own Epic Journey
Portal Knights blends the creative freedom of a sandbox building game with the action-packed combat and progression of an RPG. Choose your class—Warrior, Mage, or Ranger—and travel through ancient portals to explore dozens of unique, procedurally generated islands filled with resources, NPCs, and dangerous creatures.
Playing on a dedicated server completely transforms the multiplayer experience. Without a server, your friends can only play when the host is online. By renting a server through our partner link, your universe is persistent. Friends can log in at any time to gather resources, expand your home base, or farm bosses without waiting for you to boot up the game.
Creative Sandbox Building
Gather blocks and craft furniture to build epic castles or restore ruined structures across the islands. A dedicated server ensures your architectural masterpieces are safely stored 24/7.
RPG Class Progression
Level up, master new skills, and craft powerful weapons and armor. Characters are saved client-side, so you can bring your favorite hero directly into the dedicated universe.
Epic Boss Battles
Face off against the Hollow King, massive worms, and dragon queens. A high-performance server means no lag spikes when dodging devastating area-of-effect attacks.

Portal Knights Hosting FAQ
Got questions about running your own magical universe? We've got answers.
How many players can join?
Portal Knights is traditionally designed for up to 4 players in co-op mode. Renting a dedicated server ensures a perfectly stable connection for your entire party.
Can friends play when I'm offline?
Yes! That is the primary benefit of a dedicated server. The universe stays online 24/7, so your friends can log in to farm materials or build the base even while you are asleep.
Do I lose my character if we wipe the universe?
No. In Portal Knights, characters (including levels, inventory, and classes) are saved locally on your own computer. Only the universe and island layouts are stored on the server.
How long does setup take?
Setup is completely automated through ZAP-Hosting. Your Portal Knights server will be online, pre-configured, and ready to play within minutes of your payment clearing.
