RCON (Remote Console) is a network protocol that allows you to control game servers remotely. It provides access to the server console without needing to interact directly with the server environment. This way, you can execute administrative commands, adjust configuration parameters, or retrieve server status information.
In V Rising, RCON is used to run server-side commands such as managing players, changing gameplay settings, or fetching diagnostic outputs. The connection is password-protected and operates through a designated port accessible via compatible RCON clients.
The major advantage of RCON is that you manage the server without needing to be connected as a player in-game. Server admins can conveniently monitor and control V Rising through external tools, command lines, or web dashboards—offering great flexibility and practicality for remote administration.
Once connected via RCON, you can execute various administrative and diagnostic commands on the V Rising game server. Available commands depend on the game but typically include player management, status queries, and server control.
