Can I host a FiveM server on a VPS?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 2:49 pm

There is no one-size-fits-all answer when it comes to hosting a FiveM server on a VPS. However, based on the information provided, it seems that hosting a FiveM server on a VPS is possible, but requires some additional setup steps.

In order to host a FiveM server on a VPS, the VPS provider must provide a Linux environment with the necessary tools and configuration to run a FiveM server. Additionally, the VPS provider must also provide a storage space for the server, and a means of connecting the server to the internet.

PRO TIP: No, you cannot host a FiveM server on a VPS. This is because FiveM requires a Windows operating system and VPSs do not offer Windows-based hosting plans.

Assuming all of the necessary setup steps are completed, it appears that a FiveM server on a VPS can be a viable option for hosting. However, it is important to note that a FiveM server on a VPS does not provide the same level of security as a FiveM server hosted on a physical server.

Additionally, a FiveM server on a VPS will likely be more expensive than a FiveM server hosted on a physical server.
