How To Enable Crossplay On Your Valheim Server

In this guide you will learn how to enable crossplay on your Valheim server. This will allow you to play with players on PC Game Pass, Xbox, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.

The Valheim 1.0 Deep North update, released on September 9, 2026, brought the game to PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch 2 and added full crossplay between every platform.

Caution

Enabling this option will route all traffic through Microsoft's servers meaning you will have increased latency/ping. You also cannot disable crossplay after it is enabled otherwise you will no longer be able to connect to your server. Please reach out to Game Host Bros staff to resolve this if you have accidentally enabled it.
