Palworld RCON Setup

How to enable and use RCON for remote server management on your Palworld dedicated server.

⚠️ RCON is deprecated. The Palworld developers recommend using the REST API instead. RCON may stop working in a future update.

Enabling RCON

In Pal/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/PalWorldSettings.ini:

RCONEnabled=True
RCONPort=25575
AdminPassword="YourPassword123"

The RCON password is the same as your AdminPassword.

Port

Port	Protocol	Purpose

📝 Note: The RCON port does not need a separate allocation on XGamingServer — it's handled internally.

Connecting

mcrcon (cross-platform CLI)
ARRCON (Windows GUI)
