An Unturned dedicated server keeps the map online when the usual host logs off. Bases, vehicles and inventories stay on one persistent world, friends can join on their own schedules, and nobody has to leave a gaming PC running or share a changing home IP address.
Unturned has one of Steam's largest Workshop ecosystems. In the GHosting panel you paste links for maps, vehicles, weapons or other server content. On restart the game downloads those items and their dependencies, watches for updates, and tells connecting clients what they need. There is no collection file or manual SteamCMD command to maintain.
A small vanilla survival world is light, but custom maps and large Workshop packs can add substantial disk and memory use. The entry plan leaves comfortable room for a normal group, while public communities and heavily modded maps should use a larger tier.
Steam requires Internet servers to sign in with a unique game-server login token. GHosting provisions and protects that token automatically. Your server gets its own stable Steam identity and both required UDP ports, while the panel gives you one address to share.
The panel covers the choices that define how your server plays: map, difficulty, camera perspective, player cap, PvP, join password and whether admin cheat commands are available. Perspective in particular is worth deciding early, since first-person-only servers attract a different crowd than the default third-person view and switching later annoys regulars.
The owner Steam ID field is the one people miss. Setting it gives that account in-game admin without editing an admin list by hand, which is how you kick and ban without opening the file manager mid-session.
A verified account can start one 48-hour Survivor trial with no payment card and no automatic renewal, subject to available capacity. It is the same 4 GB server, panel, console, Mods tab and file access as the paid plan, with the managed Steam login token and both UDP ports already in place.
Two days is enough to load the Workshop map and mod list your group actually wants and watch the console while it installs, which is where a self-hosted server usually falls over. Continue on a paid term during the retention window and the same world, mod list and bans stay exactly where they are.
Pick Europe or North America based on where most of your players are. Unturned is light enough that distance rarely breaks the experience, but a Workshop map streaming in over a long route makes the first join noticeably slower for everyone.
Choose pay once or optional automatic renewal. A pay-once server stops at the end of its term, while a subscription renews for the amount and cadence accepted at checkout until you cancel. Renew inside the seven-day grace window and the same world, mod list and bans come straight back. Past that the server is deleted, so download the save if the group is taking a break. Your first server is covered by a 72-hour money-back guarantee.
Yes. A verified account can start one 48-hour Survivor trial with no payment card and no automatic renewal. Trial slots depend on available capacity. It is the real server with the real panel, console, Mods tab and file access, including the managed Steam login token and both UDP ports, and if you continue with a paid term the same world and mod list stay in place.
Yes. Paste Workshop links into the Mods tab and choose Save and restart. Unturned downloads the items, their dependencies, and future updates automatically. Players download the same content when they connect.
No. GHosting creates and manages a unique Steam game-server login token for your server automatically, so it can keep a stable identity and appear in the Internet server browser without exposing your Steam account.
For a small group, the entry plan is plenty. For more players or mods, step up a tier; you can upgrade your Unturned server at any time.
Yes. Pick a plan and a region, and your Unturned server is live in about a minute.
No. GHosting gives you a clean control panel for starting, stopping, configuring and viewing the live console. We handle the Linux side for you.
In datacenters in Europe and North America. Pick the region closest to your players for the lowest latency. DDoS protection is included.
