Restarts and Backups on Your Schedule

A Windrose server uses more memory the longer it runs, so a regular restart keeps the world smooth. Set restarts and backups to the times you choose, and the panel runs them whether or not anyone is online.

What is Windrose?

Windrose is a PvE survival adventure set in an alternative Age of Piracy, from Kraken Express. You are a captain who dares to challenge Blackbeard.

Play solo, or in co-op with up to 8 friends.

Ship and Shore.

Captain anything from a nimble ketch to a monstrous frigate, trade cannon fire or board the enemy.

Soulslite Combat.

Parry, dodge and chain strikes with sabers, rapiers, halberds, pistols and muskets.

Why rent a server?

What is Windrose Server Hosting?

When you host Windrose from your own game, the world closes the moment you leave, and your PC runs the game and the world at once. A Windrose dedicated server keeps the world online on its own, so your crew can log in whenever they like. With Physgun you choose the CPU, memory and storage, set the name, password and player limit in the panel, tune the world in our config editor, put restarts and backups on a schedule, and get full file access over SFTP and SSH.

Always Online.

Your world stays up when you log off, so your crew can play on their own time.

Full Control.

Set the difficulty, the player limit and a password, and resize your server any time.
