What is Sven Co-op?

What is Sven Co-op?

Sven Co-op is a free co-operative shooter originally based around Valve's Half-Life. Players work together against computer controlled monsters and soldiers, with Half-Life style weapons and a difficulty raised for team play. Levels are missions: open doors, solve puzzles, ride vehicles and take down bosses to reach the end, often across a series of maps. It started as a Half-Life mod in 1999 and comes with co-op versions of the Half-Life campaigns and official series like They Hunger.

Built for Teams.

Fight through Half-Life style monsters and soldiers together, with puzzles made for a group.

Official Campaigns.

Why rent a server?

What is Sven Co-op Server Hosting?

A game started from Create Game ends when its host leaves, and often needs port forwarding first. A Sven Co-op dedicated server keeps your map rotation online around the clock. On our servers you set the server name, passwords, max players, start map and region in the panel, change gameplay, voice and spray rules in the config editor, and edit your map cycle with full file access over SFTP and SSH. Game updates leave your settings and map cycle as you set them.

Always Online.

Your server stays up when you log off, so your group can play any time.

Full Control.

Pick your map cycle, and set your rules and passwords.
