Server Requirements

Windows 7, 8, 8.1, Server 2008, Server 2012 & 64-Bit

Quad Core processor (requires up to 2 full cores)

8GB memory (currently uses around 4GB memory for 100 players filled)

30GB disk space (install folder)


Step 1: Fetching Game Server files from Epic Store

The best method to get game server dedicated hosting files is via the Epic store.

  1. Download the files directly from the Epic store

Step 2: Setting up a Rune 2 Dedicated Server

  1. Create a batch file named Rune2.bat in your newly created folder (Step 1)
  2. Place the following code in this batch file:
    start Server.exe
  3. More information will be coming on Nov 12 as server files are released

Step 3: Port Forwarding

Add an incoming rule to your Windows Firewall to allow UDP port 27015 as well as 27016 (or whichever port you are using).

You may additionally need to add a forwarding rule to your network router. You can use PortForward.com to read how to do this.

STEP 2: Right click Steam in the task bar icons of your PC and select servers as pictured below.

STEP 3: Select Rune 2 as your game at the bottom. Join your server!
