Terraria Server Hosting

Terraria servers are among the lightest game servers; a vanilla world runs on 1-2 GB of RAM. With tModLoader the requirement rises noticeably, especially for large content mods such as Calamity.

Recommended plan by player count

These values map one to one onto the VDS plan steps in our catalogue. Intermediate values can also be selected in the configurator.

The amounts in the table are the monthly net price of the Intel I9 10980XE plan and match the calculation in the configurator. Billing period (3, 6, 12, 24, 36 months) and extra resources are calculated there.

Prices exclude VAT (20%).

How to choose the hardware

World size (small/medium/large) and the mod list are the main variables. A large world with a big modpack can exceed 4 GB. On the CPU side single-core performance is enough, as the Terraria server does not benefit from many cores. Storage needs are low, but leave space for world backups.

Which processor family?

Most game servers run on a single thread, so per-core performance matters more than core count.

Intel i9-10980XE

Terraria's resource profile is low, and one high-clock core is more than enough.
