Community dedicated servers
A server runtime and launcher manage match startup, round state, player connections, lifecycle, and server-list heartbeats.
PROJECT REBOUND
Keeping Boundary community multiplayer online
Project Rebound is a community-maintained dedicated-server and online-infrastructure project for Boundary that aims to restore and improve PvP and PvE multiplayer through community-hosted services.
What it is
RESTORING CONNECTION.
RESTORING FREEDOM.
Project Rebound connects the existing Windows game client to community-run dedicated servers, custom online services, launcher tools, and public server discovery so players can host, find, and join matches again.
Note: This is an early community project and does not yet replace every capability of the original online services.
Compatible online services
A custom login and metaserver layer reconnects the existing client to community-managed multiplayer infrastructure.
Player and host tools
The growing toolchain covers launching, installation and updates, public server discovery, and task-based player documentation.
Development status
Community alpha version in active development
Current work centers on stability, PvP and PvE reliability, client fixes, server lifecycle, and backend refactoring. Expect bugs, temporary limitations, and changes to setup while development continues.
Server availability is community reported and may change at any time.
