A Conan Exiles dedicated server keeps your clan's world running whether you're online or not: bases, thralls and the Purge carry on without a host. It runs Conan Exiles Enhanced, the Unreal Engine 5 version Funcom made the main game in May 2026.

> [!NOTE]
> Conan Exiles servers can't be ordered on Wilderack yet. Funcom's license rules out using Conan Exiles commercially, and lists hosting among the services Funcom offers itself. We open Conan Exiles once Funcom gives us its written OK. This guide shows how it will work then. Everything about Conan Exiles itself applies to any Conan Exiles server.

## What you need

- **Your own copy of Conan Exiles**, on PC. Every player needs one too. The dedicated server software is free and installs from Steam without a login. We never ship game files.
- **A plan with enough RAM.** Conan Exiles grows with your world: more bases, more thralls and more mods all use memory.

| Your server | Plan to start with |
|---|---|
| Up to about 10 players | 8 GB |
| Up to about 20 players | 12 GB |
| Up to 40 players, or modded | 16 GB |
| Up to 70 players with mods | 24 GB |

A PC server takes PC players only. Xbox and PlayStation players play on console servers, which only Funcom and its partner run.

## Create your server

1. Choose **Conan Exiles** in the game list.
2. Pick a plan from the table above.
3. Choose the region closest to your players. US East and Europe are open now.
4. Pick a name. It becomes your address, like `ironhold.tosk.gg`.
5. Pay. The server installs Conan Exiles Enhanced from Steam and starts.

The first start lays out the world and builds its database, so it can take several minutes. Mods add to that.

## Pick your rules

Under **Settings** you can set the name, password, player limit, PvP, base raiding, the server list region and play style, experience and gathering rates, day speed and clan size. Each one writes a line in the server's config for you. The [config reference](https://wilderack.com/wiki/conan-exiles/config-reference/) covers the rest.

New servers start as PvE: players can't hurt each other or their bases until you turn PvP and raiding on.

## Become admin

Wilderack makes an admin password for your server. Copy it from **Settings**.

1. Join your server and press **Esc**.
2. Open **Settings**, then **Server Settings**.
3. Choose **Make Me Admin** and type the password. "Admin Rights Granted" shows at the top right.
4. Open **Admin Panel** from the game menu to spawn items, fly, teleport and change settings live.

The [admin commands guide](https://wilderack.com/wiki/conan-exiles/admin-commands/) lists what you can do.

## The Isle of Siptah

Conan Exiles Enhanced runs the Exiled Lands and the Isle of Siptah as two regions of one map. If your group only plays the Exiled Lands, turn **Isle of Siptah region** off in **Settings**. The server then skips loading it, which saves memory.

## Nudity stays off

Conan Exiles lets servers allow nudity. Wilderack keeps it off on every server (`MaxNudity=0`), since our servers are for players 13 and up.

## Why Conan Exiles servers stay on

Conan Exiles takes minutes to start, and a sleeping server drops out of the server list. So Conan Exiles servers stay awake unless you turn sleep on. If you do, players who join by address can wake it.
