Gaming VPS: the complete guide to hosting your game server

A gaming VPS is a private virtual server specially optimised for hosting game servers. Unlike shared hosting where you share resources with other users, a VPS guarantees you dedicated resources (CPU, RAM, storage) for stable and predictable performance.

At YorkHost, our Ryzen VPS feature AMD Ryzen 7/9 5.2 GHz processors, renowned for their exceptional single-thread performance — the most important criterion for game servers like FiveM, Minecraft or Rust. Combined with ultra-fast NVMe storage and professional Anti-DDoS protection, our gaming VPS are designed to deliver an uncompromising gaming experience.

Whether you're managing a small community or a server with hundreds of players, we have the right configuration for you. And if you prefer a simpler solution without server management, we also offer shared game servers with an integrated management panel for Minecraft, FiveM and other games.
