How to Connect to Your Palworld Server

Palworld · 1 min read · ThundraNode Support

Time to catch Pals with the squad, here's how to hop onto your server.

Find your server address

  1. Log in to the Game Panel and open your server.
  2. Copy the IP address and port from the overview page. Palworld's default port is 8211.

Join by direct IP (recommended)

  1. Launch Palworld and select Join Multiplayer Game.
  2. At the bottom of the screen, tick the box next to the IP field.
  3. Enter your server address as IP:port, for example 192.0.2.10:8211.
  4. Click Connect.

Join via the community server browser

Your server appears in the in-game browser under the name set in the Startup tab of the panel. In Palworld, choose Join Multiplayer Game and search for that name, handy for console players, though direct IP is faster on platforms that support it.

Common issues

  • "Failed to connect": the server may still be booting; Palworld servers take a minute or two to start. Check the console in the panel.
  • Password prompt: your server has ServerPassword set in its settings. Enter it, or clear the setting and restart.
  • Version mismatch: after a Palworld update, restart the server from the panel so it updates too before you try to join.
