Bulletproof Dedicated Game Servers - No DDoS, No Restrictions

Game servers are among the most frequently DDoS-attacked services on the internet. Rivals, griefers, and competitors routinely launch volumetric attacks against popular game servers to force them offline. Without dedicated DDoS mitigation, a single attack can take your community offline for hours or days.

AnubizHost's DDoS protection is upstream of your server hardware. Attack traffic is identified and filtered at the network edge, and only legitimate player traffic reaches your server. Mitigation activates automatically within seconds of an attack being detected. Your players continue connecting while the attack is absorbed by our infrastructure.

Our mitigation capacity handles volumetric attacks at scales far beyond what individual game servers typically face. Whether the attack is UDP flood, SYN flood, or application-layer amplification, our systems are designed to absorb it without impacting server performance or player experience.

Game servers are often more demanding per player than web applications. Games require fast single-thread CPU performance for physics simulation, low-latency I/O for world state updates, and stable network throughput for player synchronization. Our dedicated hardware is configured with these requirements in mind.

High-frequency CPUs - the type that prioritizes clock speed over core count - are available for games that benefit from fast single-thread processing. For MMO-type games with hundreds of concurrent players, high-core-count CPUs distribute the simulation load more efficiently. Our sales team can help match CPU configuration to your specific game server workload.

Network latency matters enormously for player experience. Servers in our European locations - Romania, Finland, the Netherlands - achieve excellent latency to European players. For global communities, we can discuss multi-server configurations that place servers close to each regional player base.

Many game publishers are aggressive about DMCA actions against community servers, particularly for older games that publishers no longer officially support. Emulation servers, private servers for games with shut-down official services, and modified game experiences that publishers object to have historically been vulnerable to takedown pressure.

AnubizHost's offshore DMCA-ignored hosting removes this vulnerability. Our Romanian and Icelandic data centers operate outside US DMCA jurisdiction, and we do not voluntarily respond to game publisher takedown requests. Your game community server operates as long as you pay for the server - not as long as the publisher permits it.

Custom game modifications, adult-themed game servers, and gambling-integrated game economies that mainstream hosts refuse are all accommodated under AnubizHost's terms of service. We maintain clear prohibitions against genuine harm, but game content restrictions from commercial publishers are not a basis for termination.

Game server provisioning follows our standard dedicated server workflow. Select your hardware configuration - ensure sufficient CPU frequency for your game engine and enough RAM for your expected player count - choose your location, and pay with cryptocurrency. Your server is ready within two to four hours.

We support all major game server software. Steam game servers, Minecraft and its derivatives, FiveM for GTA roleplay, Source engine games, and dozens of other game server applications run on our Linux or Windows dedicated hardware. Our team can provide initial configuration assistance for common game server software.

DDoS protection is not a separate add-on for gaming servers - it is included at all plan tiers. You do not need to pay extra for protection that should be standard. Contact our team with your specific game, expected player count, and geographic distribution of your player base for a hardware recommendation tailored to your needs.
