How to Restrict Crossplay on Your RuneScape: Dragonwilds Server

Restrict crossplay on a RuneScape Dragonwilds server

2 min read
Sep 15, 2026

Since the 1.0 update, your server is automatically a crossplay server. Players on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2 can join together without you having to configure anything in the dashboard. If you want to limit your server to a single platform, you can optionally do so via SFTP in the configuration file.

Possible values

The PlatformPolicy setting defines which platform is allowed to join your server:

Value Meaning
Crossplay All platforms can join (default)
PC Only PC players can join
PlayStation Only PlayStation players can join
Xbox Only Xbox players can join
Nintendo Only Nintendo Switch players can join

Restrict crossplay

  1. Stop the server
    Stop your server via the dashboard.

  2. Connect via SFTP
    Connect to your server via SFTP.

  3. Open configuration file
    Open the following file:

    /RSDragonwilds/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/DedicatedServer.ini
    
  4. Enter PlatformPolicy
    Under the [/Script/Dominion.DedicatedServerSettings] section, add the line PlatformPolicy= with the desired value from the table. If the line already exists, only change the value.

  5. Start the server
    Save the file and start your server.

Verify the setting

You can check whether the setting has been applied in the log of your server at /RSDragonwilds/Saved/Logs/RSDragonwilds.log:

  • Session crossplay set to [...] – shows the active crossplay setting of your server
  • PlatformPolicy not set - defaulting to Crossplay – no value is set, all platforms can join

Re-open crossplay for everyone

Set the value back to PlatformPolicy=Crossplay or remove the line from the file and restart your server.
