Pirates Vikings & Knights II Server Hosting, Explained
New to PVKII?
What is Pirates Vikings & Knights II?
Pirates Vikings & Knights II is a free, class-based team game on the Source engine where Pirates, Vikings and Knights fight each other at once. It began as a Half-Life 2 mod and has been played for over 15 years. Each faction has four classes, from the Skirmisher with his pistols and powder keg to the Berserker's battleaxe and the Heavy Knight's greatsword and shield, and matches mix melee swings and blocks with crossbows, javelins and explosives.
Three Factions.
Twelve classes across Pirates, Vikings and Knights, all in one three-way fight.
Many Modes.
Hoard chests in Booty, hold ground in Territory or guard your trinket in Trinket Wars.
Why rent a server?
What is PVKII Server Hosting?
PVKII is played almost entirely on community servers, so a server of your own gives your regulars a place to play with your map, your rules and your password. On our servers you set the server name, password, starting map, ruleset and max players in the panel, change round time, team balance, voice chat and map downloads in the config editor, and send commands from the console or over RCON. Your server checks for a game update every time it starts.
Always Online.
Your server stays up when you log off, so your clan can play any time.
Full Control.
Set your map, mode, rules and passwords from one panel.
