game server VPS
Game server VPS with DDoS protection
Game servers need three things: enough RAM, steady CPU and protection from the DDoS attacks that come with running a popular community. A TidalVPS server gives you all three, plus full root access to install any game server, mod loader or panel you like.
Choose Virginia for East Coast and European players or Oregon for West Coast and Pacific players.
