Dedicated game servers with sub-5ms intra-region latency, Game Shield DDoS protection purpose-built for UDP traffic, and 100% bare metal performance across 32 global regions.
Every millisecond matters. Our infrastructure is purpose-tuned for the latency, reliability, and DDoS resistance that game servers demand.
Layer 4 & Layer 7 mitigation tuned for UDP game traffic. Scrubs attacks while maintaining sub-millisecond pass-through latency for legitimate players. No kick, no timeout.
Tier-1 transit peering and strategic datacenter placement deliver <5ms within each region. Anycast routing ensures players always hit their closest PoP.
Dedicated hardware means no shared CPU cycles, no I/O contention, no noisy-neighbor packet loss. Your players get 100% of the hardware's capability.
Deploy in North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LATAM. With 32 locations, 90% of global players reach a server in under 30ms RTT.
No traffic caps, no overage fees. 1 GbE standard, 10 GbE and 100 GbE upgrades available. Handle peak player counts without throttling or surprise bills.
Full root access supports Pterodactyl, TCAdmin, AMP, and Multicraft. Docker and custom game binaries fully supported with no restrictions.
Block known attack sources before traffic reaches your server. Our global threat intelligence database is updated in real time from 32 datacenters worldwide.
Our support team includes engineers with hands-on game server experience. Sub-5-minute average response time around the clock, including weekends and holidays.
Whether you're running a competitive FPS ladder or a global MMO, HostGen's infrastructure handles the load.
Entry-level bare metal. Perfect for small communities, Minecraft, and modded game servers on a budget.
High-performance bare metal for competitive servers, large communities, and always-on game operations.
Top-tier hardware for esports, live events, large MMO clusters, and game platforms serving millions of players.
Game Shield uses Layer 4 and Layer 7 traffic analysis tuned for UDP game protocols. It scrubs attack traffic while passing legitimate player packets with sub-millisecond additional latency. Protection activates automatically when anomalous traffic is detected — no manual intervention required.
Intra-region latency is under 5ms. With 32 global datacenters, 90% of players worldwide will have under 30ms RTT to their nearest HostGen region. Anycast routing automatically directs traffic to the optimal entry point.
Yes — full root access means you can install any game panel software including Pterodactyl, TCAdmin, AMP, and Multicraft. Docker is fully supported so containerized game deployments work without restrictions.
Yes — all dedicated server plans include unmetered bandwidth with no traffic caps or overage charges. Port speeds range from 1 GbE to 100 GbE depending on your configuration. DDoS attack traffic is scrubbed and does not count toward any limits.
No contracts. No setup fees. Game Shield DDoS included on every plan.
