Windrose is an open-world survival adventure set in the Age of Piracy, blending PvE exploration, naval combat, fort construction, and co-op crew gameplay. You and up to 7 friends band together as a pirate crew — scouting procedurally scattered islands, gathering resources, crafting ships, raiding forts, and taking down world bosses across a sandbox that rewards planning as much as it rewards firepower. Released on Steam in 2025, Windrose supports up to 8-player sessions on dedicated servers.
Running Windrose on a dedicated server has two concrete advantages over hosting on a gaming PC. First, persistence: your fort, ship, and crew progress survive between sessions regardless of whether the host is online. Second, memory headroom — the official docs ask for 16 GB on the client plus another 8 GB free for the server binary, which is a lot to expect from a home PC that's also running the game. A dedicated server frees that memory back to the players.
Every Windrose server we provision ships with the official Steam dedicated binary installed via SteamCMD, auto-detection of new builds on restart, and the expected ports opened. The invite-code join system (each server generates a unique code that players paste into the main menu) works out of the box — no IP sharing, no port entry, no Steam friends-list invite dance. 8 GB RAM is the official minimum; we recommend 12 GB for sustained mid-game sessions with heavy base construction.
“Setup was instant. I was uploading my world within two minutes of checkout.”
“Latency from the EU node is under 30ms for my whole squad. Zero rubber-banding even on intense sessions.”
“Support actually knows the games. Had a config issue resolved in 20 minutes at 2am.”
“Backups saved a 200-hour save after a mod broke it. One-click restore, worth the plan by itself.”
“Panel is miles better than what I was on before. I don't even miss SFTP.”
“Switching between games without paying again is the feature I didn't know I needed.”
Up to 8 players — the current official cap. All our Windrose plans support the full 8-slot capacity.
Each dedicated server generates a unique invite code. Your crew enters the code from the main menu — no IP sharing, no port entry, no Steam friends-list invite required. The panel displays the active invite code and lets you regenerate it if needed.
PC-only on Steam at launch. Console ports have not been announced.
The official minimum is 8 GB allocated specifically to the dedicated server (separate from client RAM). We recommend 12 GB for 8-player sessions with extensive fort construction — base complexity is the main driver of memory growth.
Yes. Upload the save file via the panel's file manager or SFTP, and the server will pick it up on next restart. We document the exact save paths in the Windrose template README.
Modding is early — no official mod workshop exists yet. Full file access is available for community mods as they ship. We'll add one-click installers if an official mod system is released.
