What you should know

  • Taxes included according to source
  • The exact processor may vary depending on location and available machine.
  • The host link goes to the host's home page. Select the plan above there.
  • For price ranking, the ongoing costs of $36.43 are calculated per average calendar month.
  • CPU model applies to the location pool; no guaranteed dedicated cores or threads.
  • 30 days is not a calendar month. Renewal price per the current unchanged configurator.
  • Host lists the location as FFM / Eygelshoven. Location description names Eygelshoven in the Netherlands.
  • Checkout opens the configurator. Set slots and additional RAM as in the plan name and billing note.
  • Purchased slots limit connections and do not provide reachable player performance.

Player count assumptions

  • The slot count describes the connections allowed on the plan, not measured hardware performance.
  • One game world.
  • Normal draw distance.
  • No mods.
  • No large redstone farms.
  • Players mostly in the same region.
  • Java RAM model without mods: 2 GB base budget for 2 players, then 128–256 MB per additional player. Calculated at 1000 MB per GB.
  • The base budget is tight. The sources recommend more reserve for small groups, depending on how you play. View distance, exploration, world size and CPU performance can limit things earlier.
  • The model ends at 100 players. This is a limit of our estimate, not a technical slot limit.
  • Gameforest planning estimate. For pure RAM estimates, the filter uses the conservative lower end, not a measured performance value.

Rent a Minecraft server: choose edition and playstyle first

For a shared survival world you need a different Minecraft server than for a large modpack or a network with multiple game modes. First decide whether your group plays Java or Bedrock. Then compare RAM, CPU allocation and the server software actually offered. A cheap entry plan helps little if your mod loader or the required file access is missing from the plan.

Compare RAM, slots and modpacks sensibly

Slots limit the number of connections. On their own, they do not show how smoothly a world with many chunks, farms and plugins will run. For Java, view distance, concurrently active players and the mod selection are important factors. A higher RAM tier adds memory headroom but does not replace sufficient CPU performance. Use the player and configuration filters as a planning aid and open the plan details for the assumptions behind the recommendation.

Java, Bedrock and crossplay

A Bedrock offer is not automatically a Java server with the same extensions. Java and Bedrock players can connect via solutions such as Geyser, but the host must allow the matching setup. Before ordering, check whether you need Vanilla, Paper, Fabric, Forge or other software and whether you can switch it yourself.

Check costs and world transfer before booking

Compare the total amount due, the payment period and the renewal price. For a short round, monthly payment may make more sense than a low effective price with long upfront payment. Also check whether you can upload your world, download backups and later switch to a larger plan. Cards with an open price stay in the catalogue; the current final price then has to be checked with the host.

Sources and technical basics

Frequently asked questions about Minecraft Game Server

How much RAM do I need for my Minecraft server?

That depends on edition, view distance, world and mods. Choose your player count and configuration in the comparison and read the assumptions on the plan. A slot figure alone is not a guarantee of RAM or performance.

Can I play Java and Bedrock on the same server?

Yes, with a suitable crossplay solution such as Geyser. Check the supported server software and setup with the host. A standard Java plan does not automatically include this feature.

Can I transfer my existing Minecraft world?

Check upload and file access with the host. Create a backup first and keep edition, game version and modpack matching your current save. A backup should also be available outside the rented server.

Is a plan with unlimited slots automatically better?

Unlimited slots describe a connection limit, not unlimited computing power. RAM, CPU allocation, view distance and your world's actual load remain decisive.
