First, you gotta decide if you want to host it yourself or use a dedicated server. If hosting yourself, just create a game from the main menu, set it to 'Friends only,' and share the password with your buddies. Easy peasy!

Use the in-game 'Friends only' option if you don鈥檛 want the hassle of setting up a dedicated server.

Bought a dedicated server off G-Portal and never looked back. Follow these steps: Download Valheim Dedicated Server from Steam, set up the server config file, open necessary ports on your router, and let your friends connect using the server IP. You'll get more stability that way.

Make sure to share the server name and password with your friends. They can join through the 'Join Game' menu by searching for your server name or IP address.

Pro tip: If you're hosting on your own machine, make sure your internet can handle it! Otherwise, it's lag city.
