Melbourne, United States
Gaming VPS in Melbourne
High clock speeds and fast disk for game servers and low latency. Built by hand, usually the same day.
- ✓ Dedicated cores, never shared
- ✓ Same price in all 24 locations
- ✓ Any TCP or UDP port
Estimated from fibre distance, not measured from Melbourne. Your real figure depends on your connection and route, and lands inside this range.
Choose how the processor is shared
Every class ships the same hardware menu and the same Ubuntu Server 24.04 (LTS) 64-bit image. What changes is how the processor is shared — and the price moves with it.
Availability
Budget friendly
Only for a private server among friends. Shared processor time shows up as stutter the moment a fight starts.
$514.35USD
per month
ConfigureGeneral purpose
The usual choice
Workable for smaller player counts and slower genres, where a dropped tick goes unnoticed.
$525.35USD
per month
ConfigureDedicated
The usual choice
A game server has to finish every tick on time, and dedicated cores are the only way that holds when the server is full.
$536.35USD
per month
ConfigureBurstable
Not for game servers
Not usable. Throttles under sustained load, and a match is sustained load by definition.
$1.0286USD
per hour — booked for a window, not subscribed
Book by the hourLaunch weekend: add cores and memory on the same server and take them off when the rush settles — by hand, usually within the hour.
Host where your players are
Ping is the one number your players will judge you on, and it is theirs, not yours. Pick the region your community actually lives in — every location costs the same, so there is no reason to compromise.

Europe, Middle East & Africa
Asia-Pacific
No ping figures here on purpose: your players' latency depends on where they are, and we have not measured a route we cannot see. Distances and estimated round trips from Melbourne are in the table below.
Where your server runs
All 24 locations cost the same, so pick whichever sits closest to the people who will actually use the server. Choose the region closest to the players, not to you. Ping is the whole experience in a shooter, and thirty milliseconds is the difference between a hit and a miss.
Melbourne is closest to Miami. Every marker costs the same per month.
