Frequently asked questions
What is a game server and why rent one?
A game server runs your world or match so players can join it from the game. Renting one keeps it online around the clock, without your PC staying on, without exposing your home connection and with a data center network for your players.
Which games can I host?
Every game in the catalogue above, from Minecraft, Rust and ARK to racing, shooter and roleplay games. Search by name or abbreviation and filter by genre. If your game is missing, send us a message and we will check it.
How much RAM does my game server need?
It depends on the game, the player count, the world size and the mods. Light games such as Terraria run in 1–2 GB, Minecraft communities in 4–6 GB, while ARK: Survival Ascended, Palworld and Rust need 12–16 GB or more. Every game page has a size table with sources.
Can I use mods, plugins and Workshop content?
As far as each game allows. Minecraft uses plugin and mod loaders, Rust uses Oxide or Carbon, ARK: Survival Ascended uses CurseForge, and many Steam games use the Workshop. Each game page explains which mods the server runs and whether players need them too.
Where are your game servers located?
Game servers are offered in 20 locations. Choose the one closest to most of your players: the shorter the distance, the lower the latency in game.
Can players on consoles join?
It depends on the game. Valheim, ARK: Survival Ascended, Palworld and Space Engineers let console players join PC dedicated servers when crossplay is set up, and 7 Days to Die does so within its crossplay rules. Satisfactory and DayZ do not; see each game page.
Can I move my existing world or save?
For most games, yes: worlds and saves are folders or files you can bring to the server. Each game page explains where the files are and what to watch for, such as version changes.
What if my game is not in the catalogue?
Send us a message with the game, your player count and your preferred location. Our team will tell you whether we can host it and what the server needs.
Is there a refund policy for game servers?
Yes. Game servers are covered by the standard terms of our refund policy for 30 days; any setup fee is deducted, and payments in cryptocurrency are final. Read the refund policy for the full conditions.
How do players connect to the server?
We send the server address with your service details. Players add it in the game’s server browser or connect directly, for example with Add Server in Minecraft or the connect command in Counter-Strike 2 and Rust.
Not sure which game or size?
Tell us your game, your player count and where your players are, and our team will recommend a setup.
