About the category

Hosting for games for developers

A curated selection: Hosting for games for developers. We picked providers matching these criteria and sorted them by rating and real reviews.

What matters about this combination of criteria: Game servers need low latency and UDP DDoS protection. Developers need root access, OS choice and an API for automation.

Bottom line: for most projects in Ukraine the ideal VPS means NVMe storage, a 99.9%+ SLA, a convenient panel and support in your language. Start with the ranking leaders above and compare them side by side.

Frequently asked questions

The key factors are low latency to players, DDoS protection and enough RAM. Minecraft for 10 players — 2–4 GB; CS2 or Rust — 4–8 GB. A high-clock CPU matters more than core count.
Good providers include network protection (L3/L4) in the plan. For games, UDP protection is critical since most game traffic uses UDP. Confirm this before ordering.
A KVM VPS with root access, any-OS choice, the ability to upload a custom ISO and an API/CLI for code-based management. NVMe disks speed up builds and database work.
Yes, some providers offer hourly billing — handy for test environments needed for a few hours. Create, test, delete — you pay only for the runtime.

Техподдержка вообще отстойная, жду ответа от 3 до 4 часов, решают проблему так же! Нету никаких онлайн мессенджеров для быстрой связи, есть телефон и тот стационарный через который не дозвонится никак... В ОБЩЕМ НЕ РЕКОМЕНДУЮ!!!!!!!!!

Кастомизации сервера нет. Убогий порт на 25мбит Возможности ставить свою ОС нет Пробного периода нет. Наверное, худший хост из тех, что я видел. Не рекомендую.

Не предоставлять на тарифах хостинга SSL в наше время это голимый отстой.

Отличный хостинг. По скорости один из лучших, по цене тоже. те, кто тут выше его ругают - либо слишком нервные, либо им просто не повезло. Я несколько раз специально проводил сравнение с другими хостерами и в итоге оставался на фрихосте.
