Hurtworld Server Hosting for a wipe cycle that holds
Run your Hurtworld server on a KVM VDS in Frankfurt with full root, dedicated resources and multi-Tbps Anti-DDoS. Your bases and your wipe schedule, on a machine nobody else shares.
VDS plans from €32.00EUR per month
A Hurtworld server holds a persistent world between sessions: bases, vehicles and progress all stay put until you wipe. Running it on your own VDS means you decide the wipe schedule, the mods and the restarts, rather than fitting around someone else's panel.
Every VDS is a KVM virtual machine in Frankfurt with guaranteed vCPU, RAM and NVMe, full root access and the same multi-Tbps Anti-DDoS network as the rest of ESAGAMES.
What's included
Everything your Hurtworld server needs
Hurtworld is a persistent survival world with a wipe cycle — and the moment a server gets popular, a wipe night is exactly when someone tries to take it down.
Full root access
Install the headless server, set your launch parameters and run it under a process manager — nothing is locked down.
Mods and plugins
Add the mod framework and plugins your community wants, with the files under your own control.
Your wipe schedule
Wipes, restarts and backups run on your timetable, scripted however you like.
Anti-DDoS included
Multi-Tbps Frankfurt filtering in front of your IP, with a dedicated Hurtworld UDP profile.
NVMe storage
Fast saves and restarts as the world and the base count grow.
Frankfurt latency
Central-EU routing for a stable ping across the server.
Built for Hurtworld players, not just servers
Hardware, network and protection tuned for game hosting — hosted in one of Europe's best-connected data centres.
Multi-Tbps Anti-DDoS
Your VDS is filtered through our own 13 Tbps+ Frankfurt network — attacks are absorbed before they reach your server. Learn more →
Instant activation
The VDS is provisioned automatically after checkout, so you can log in and start installing within minutes.
Low EU latency
Frankfurt is the heart of European networking. Players across the EU get a stable, low ping for smooth gameplay.
Full root, your setup
A KVM virtual machine you control completely — SteamCMD, mods, scripts and backups, set up the way you want.
Ryzen 9 and Xeon Gold
VDS plans run on Ryzen 9 9950X, Ryzen 9 7950X or Xeon Gold 6230R processors.
24/7 in-house support
Real people run the network and the VDS platform. We keep the machine online; the game server on it is yours to run.
How to make a Hurtworld server
Four steps from checkout to a live server. You will need a Linux command line — or follow our guide line by line.
Pick a VDS plan
4 GB covers a small server; a populated one with heavy building wants 8 GB or more.
Install the server
Connect over SSH and install the Hurtworld headless server with SteamCMD.
Set your parameters
Set the host and query ports, server name and world settings in your launch command.
Open the ports and go live
Allow the game and query ports in your firewall, start the server and share the IP.
How much server do you need?
A Hurtworld server runs on one of our VDS plans. Here is which plan fits — the cores, RAM and disk shown are each plan's current specs.
VDS plans from €32.00EUR per month.
VDS 1
6 GB RAM · 4 vCPU · 60 GB disk
A small server, roughly up to 16 players.
VDS 2
10 GB RAM · 6 vCPU · 100 GB disk
A public server with a steady population.
VDS 3
16 GB RAM · 10 vCPU · 150 GB disk
50+ players, heavy base building and mods.
Any Hurtworld server
PvP, PvE, modded or vanilla.
Hurtworld is a top DDoS target — you're covered
Game servers are the #1 target for DDoS attacks. Every ESAGAMES VDS sits behind our multi-Tbps filtering, engineered to absorb modern botnets like AISURU and keep your Hurtworld server online during raids, rivalries and events.
Hurtworld hosting questions, answered
Which ports does Hurtworld use?
UDP 12871 for the game and UDP 12881 for the query by default, set with the host and queryport parameters in your launch command.
How much RAM does it need?
4 GB is a reasonable floor for a small server of up to about 16 players. A medium server with 50 or more wants 8–16 GB, and heavy base building pushes it higher.
Do you sell a ready-made Hurtworld game server?
No. You rent a VDS and install the headless server on it, which gives you control over the wipe cycle, mods and restarts.
Can I run mods?
Yes — with root you install the mod framework and plugins your community wants, in whatever combination you need.
Is it DDoS protected?
Always — multi-Tbps Frankfurt filtering with a dedicated Hurtworld UDP profile.
Can I move an existing server here?
Yes. Copy your save data over and start the server — a VDS is a plain Linux machine, so the migration is straightforward.
