PLAY DAYZ MULTIPLAYER

Survive a harsh open world full of danger, decay, and player betrayal with your own DAYZ server. Customize your map, weather cycles, loot spawn, and more for a survival sandbox tailored to how you and your group want to play whether that’s solo exploration or tense PvP conflict.

MOD LIST, SERVER MODS, SIGNATURES

Add vehicles, weapons, base building and AI encounters by uploading mod folders and listing them on the Workshop page, with server-side mods in a list of their own. On every start the server copies each mod's key into keys, and every player needs the same mods.

Frequently
Asked
Questions

Here are some DayZ specific FAQs. If you need even more, head to our knowledgebase.

View FAQView FAQsKnowledgebaseKnowledgebase
What is a DayZ Dedicated Server?
A DayZ dedicated server is a private server you control, allowing for custom survival settings, mod support, loot spawns, and more. It runs 24/7 with full access for configuration, hosted on powerful low latency hardware.
How do I set up a DayZ server with PlayNHost?
Select your DayZ plan, check out, and get instant login access. Use our control panel to install mods, configure server settings, choose maps like Chernarus or Livonia, and go live in minutes.
Can I install mods or use community content?
Yes, by upload. DayZ cannot download Steam Workshop mods on our servers yet, so you upload each mod's @ folder in Files or over SFTP and list it on the Workshop page under Mods or Server-side mods. On every start the server copies each mod's key into the keys folder and warns in the console if a listed folder is missing.
Can Xbox or PlayStation players join my DayZ server?
No. Our DayZ servers run the PC version of the DayZ server, for players on Steam. We do not sell Xbox or PlayStation DayZ servers.
Can I run Livonia or Sakhal?
Yes. Choose Chernarus, Livonia or Sakhal under Map in Settings; each map keeps its own world, so switching back finds the old one. Livonia has been part of the base game since May 2024, so nobody needs a DLC for it. Players need the Frostline DLC to join a Sakhal server.
I’ve never hosted DayZ before, can you help?
Definitely. Our support team is ready 24/7 on live chat. Whether it’s editing types.xml, mod load order, server stability, or event scheduling, we’ve got your back.
Can I choose the location of my DayZ server?
You choose the region when you order: Europe, North America, South America, Asia or Australia. Every region is available on every plan, and the Hardware and Locations page lists all our locations.
What if I want a refund?
Your first order is covered by our 72-hour money-back guarantee. If you are not satisfied, open a ticket in the panel within 72 hours of ordering.
How much does a DayZ server cost at PlayNHost?
DayZ plans start at US$13.99 (€12.49) a month with 8 GB RAM and 18 player slots, up to US$44.49 (€38.49) with 16 GB RAM and 40 player slots. That is the regular monthly price, before any first-month discount, and every plan includes DDoS protection, SFTP and 24/7 support.
What do you get with a DayZ server at PlayNHost?
A DayZ server at PlayNHost comes with: Full Server & RCON Config; Mod & Plugin Support; Deep Server Customization. You choose the region when you order (Europe, North America, South America, Asia or Australia), and setup starts as soon as payment clears.
