About Renown: Medieval survival with full-loot PvP
Renown is a medieval survival game from RDBK Studios, in Steam Early Access since September 2025. You start with basic tools, work up a tech tree through gathering and crafting, build and upgrade a base, and fight other players in melee and ranged combat with full loot and base raiding. Your own dedicated server keeps the world and everyone's bases running around the clock, under rules you set instead of an official server's.
Rates, access, and rules in Game.ini
Renown's server settings live in Game.ini: server name, password, player cap, and admin password, plus multipliers for resource gain, crafting, smelting, decay, and respawn times. Game.ini also handles ping limits and idle kicks, and Engine.ini has a first-person-only switch. On Host Havoc you edit both files from the control panel or over FTP, then restart to apply.
Built for Early Access updates
Renown is patched often, and players need the server on the same version as their game to join. Your Host Havoc server launches on the latest build, and automated backups give you a restore point if a patch affects your save. Official mod support is planned but not available yet.
How to Set Up a Renown Dedicated Server
With Host Havoc
The easy way: with Host Havoc
- Pick a plan and region. Choose your player slots and the datacenter closest to your group.
- Deploy in minutes. Your server launches on the latest Early Access build, ready to join from the in-game server browser.
- Set your rules. Name, password, admin password, and rates live in
Game.ini, editable from the control panel. No SteamCMD or port forwarding.
Automated world backups (handy while Early Access patches roll out), DDoS protection, and 24/7 support are included.
Without Host Havoc
The manual way: self-hosting
Renown's dedicated server from RDBK Studios is a free Unreal Engine tool with native Windows and Linux builds. It needs a machine that stays on 24/7, and fast single-core CPU speed and RAM set the limits: plan for 4 fast cores, 8 GB of RAM for a small group (16 GB or more past 50 players), and about 20 GB of SSD. No GPU needed.
- Download the server with SteamCMD using the anonymous login and Steam App ID
1512690:steamcmd +login anonymous +app_update 1512690 validate +quit - Edit
Game.iniinRenown_Combat/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/(orLinuxServer/). SetServerName,ServerPassword,MaxPlayers, andAdminPassword, plus any gameplay multipliers. - Forward the ports. UDP
7777for game traffic,27015for the server list query, and9999for the beacon. RCON on TCP25575is optional. - Launch the server with
Renown_CombatServer.exeon Windows orRenown_CombatServer.shon Linux, passing your port flags (-PORT,-QUERYPORT,-BeaconPort) and the Epic Online Services client ID and secret the server needs. - Keep it running as a service on Windows, or in screen/tmux on Linux.
After that it is on you: patching after every Early Access update (the server must match the client version), backing up world saves, restarting after crashes, and absorbing DDoS yourself.
