RF Online Private Servers — Ranking of the Best 2026
The BestGames catalogue gathers RF Online private servers and helps you pick one by rates, client version and three-race war format. Choose your side — Bellato, Cora or Accretia — pick a comfortable leveling pace and Chip War schedule, compare versions and head to the server that suits you. Fresh launches are gathered in the new RF Online servers and opening dates section. Since the official servers of the original RF Online have closed, private projects are now the main way to play Rising Force.
Best RF Online Private Servers 2026: how the list works
The catalogue currently holds 6 projects, ranked by player votes rather than paid placement. Each server card shows the declared rate, client version and PvP format, so you can judge a project before installing the client. Start with the axis that matters to you:
- Servers by rate — from near-original low-rate x1 to fast high-rate builds.
- PvP servers — focused on the race war and the Chip War for mining rights on Crag Mine.
- PvE servers — leveling, dungeons and gearing without forced open PvP.
The ranking updates from votes, so fresh openings and active projects rise naturally instead of through advertising.
Races, client version and rates: what to check
RF Online is built around the war of three asymmetric races, and your choice of side defines the whole playstyle. Together with the client version and rates, that makes three key decisions before you start:
| Parameter | Options | What it affects |
|---|---|---|
| Race | Bellato (MAU mechs), Cora (magic, Animus), Accretia (robots, no magic) | Classes, combat style and your role in the three-race war. |
| Client version | Ep2.1.x, Ep2.2.x, Update 4.x | Level cap, available content and how endgame looks. |
| Rates | x1 – high-rate | Leveling pace, economy and the road to endgame. |
The races in RF Online are not mirrored: the Bellato Federation balances technology and magic and is the only race to pilot MAU battle mechs; the Holy Cora Alliance leans on magic and summoning through the Animus system; the Accretia Empire are magic-less robots with siege units. The core PvP content is the Chip War (race war) on the Crag Mine map: destroy the enemy chip and defend your own Holy Stone Keeper, and the winner earns mining rights. The client version and rates shape the road to that war.
How to choose an RF Online private server
An RF Online private server is a community-run emulation of the game. Because the original official servers have closed, each private project has its own client version, economy and community — and its own quality. Do not confuse the original with RF Online Next: that is a separate sequel game, while the servers in this catalogue recreate classic Rising Force. A few checks are worth the time before you start:
- Version and content. Confirm the client version and whether key systems are in — MAU, Animus, Accretia siege units and the Chip War schedule.
- Rates and cash shop. Check the declared rates and the in-game store: see whether race-war-relevant gear is sold for real money.
- Race balance. Find out how the server balances Bellato, Cora and Accretia — a population skew ruins the Chip War.
- Project health. Check the Discord, opening date and reviews to filter out projects that close within the first month.
Open a server card, compare race, version and rates, then head to the project's site. To find the newest launches, sort the list by opening date.
