Players now have the option to make their worlds crossplay or not each time they host a multiplayer world, and dedicated servers now also have a crossplay option.

Choose a World Setup That Fits Your Group

Use a dedicated server when your group wants a persistent world. Dedicated-server support arrived in a major update that also brought four quests, the Black Knight Titan boss, Dowdun Reach, controller improvements, and fixes.

Dedicated servers were moved earlier in the roadmap in response to player feedback, while later development added combat and quest content for solo and group adventures.

The official store presents Ashenfall as a survival journey across distinct regions shaped by wild magic, with community feedback also influencing the early arrival of dedicated servers.

Crossplay is already available alongside a broad set of world-creation options, so decide on those options before inviting the rest of your group.
