- Methodology
- Our price comes live from the configurator, the Nitrado figure from publicly documented Nitrado sources. Every price row names its source and the day it was checked.
- Limitations
- Nitrado tiers and our tiers do not always line up. How we match such rows and what this comparison does not measure is collected in the methodology.

Price comparison by game
Primary sources and verification date
Every published price row links to its game-specific original source. These official Nitrado pages additionally document plan access, service features, contract terms, support and migration information:
- RAM-based prices without slot limits for Minecraft, Valheim and ARK: Survival Ascended — the configurator shows the price before purchase.
- Monthly subscription with no long-term minimum; automatic renewal can be disabled.
- GSLT token for Counter-Strike 2 and Team Fortress 2 automatically included, no own Steam account required.
- Automatic setup starts after successful payment. Each game shows its estimated setup time. Large downloads, additional setup steps or queues can extend provisioning.
Frequently asked questions
How do I switch from another host to game-serverhosting?
The migration assistant checks an existing server world along with its mods and settings before you order, and shows the matching resources and monthly price in the configurator. The actual transfer of the checked files only starts once the new game-serverhosting server has been fully provisioned, so your current server stays untouched in the meantime.
What happens to my existing game world during the switch?
The migration assistant reads the existing world together with mods, plugins and configuration files and checks them before you order. After the new server is provisioned we transfer the checked files; there is no automatic takeover directly from your previous host, you start the transfer yourself through the assistant.
How is billing handled?
Monthly subscription with no long-term minimum; automatic renewal can be disabled. The server is billed monthly, and automatic renewal can be turned off at any time in the customer area, so the subscription ends at the end of its current term instead of continuing automatically. A new server can be ordered again at any time afterwards.
How much cheaper is game-serverhosting in this comparison?
In 13 of the 13 documented configurations our current price is below the competitor price collected on 19.09.2026; across those rows the difference averages about 50 %. These prices come from different dates. The full breakdown by game and resource tier is in the price table further up this page.
Do I need my own GSLT token for Counter-Strike 2?
No. For Counter-Strike 2 and Team Fortress 2, a GSLT token is minted automatically when the server is created; no separate Steam account is required for it. The token can be replaced with your own at any time in the server panel if you prefer.
