Project Zomboid Server Hosting
Fast, DDoS-protected Project Zomboid dedicated servers with Steam Workshop mods, full sandbox control, version options, and the RAM headroom heavy Knox County modlists need.
Version Options for Your Server
Pick the stable branch for a long-running co-op world, or use a test branch when your group wants newer systems early. You can change versions from the panel, and backups make it easier to protect a save before you switch.
Full Admin Commands
Run your server like an operator. Set admin access from Server Options, then teleport players with /teleport, tune god mode with /godmode, and manage access levels from the in-game panel or live console. See our Project Zomboid admin commands guide for the complete list.
One-Click Workshop Mods
Install and order Steam Workshop mods from the panel, match mod IDs in your server config, and keep clients in sync. Brita's, map mods, and vehicle overhauls all need the same stack on server and client. Check version compatibility before you enable a pack.
Full Sandbox Settings
Shape Knox County from the panel. Zombie population and sprinter mix, loot abundance, XP gain, day length, erosion, and temperature all live in servertest.ini and SandboxVars.lua. Tune every sandbox variable from the panel.
Built for Heavy Modlists
PZ simulates zombies, vehicles, and inventories per connected survivor, so busy worlds and heavy modlists push RAM fast. We size plans for that reality so your server stays smooth when the horde reaches your base. Automatic backups are included on every plan.
DDoS Protection Included
Enterprise DDoS protection comes standard on every Project Zomboid server, so your Knox County world stays online through the attacks that take public survival servers down.

Frequently asked questions
Project Zomboid questions
Can I choose my Project Zomboid version?
Yes. Pick the stable branch for a long-running save, or use the latest test branch when your group wants the newest features. Back up first when switching versions because saves and mods are branch-specific.
Can I customize sandbox settings?
Yes. Set zombie population and speed, loot abundance, XP gain, day length, erosion, temperature, and other SandboxVars from the panel.
How do I install Workshop mods on a Project Zomboid server?
Upload and enable mods from the panel, set load order, and match mod IDs in your server config. Clients need the same mods installed to join. Check each mod supports your selected version.
How do I become admin and use admin commands?
Set yourself as admin in Server Options from the panel, then use in-game commands like /adduser, /teleport, and /setaccesslevel. Our Project Zomboid admin commands guide covers every command worth knowing.
How much RAM does a Project Zomboid server need?
4 GB suits a small group with light mods. 8 GB is the better starting point for modded servers or roughly eight players. Heavy modlists with a larger group want 12 GB because PZ simulation scales hard with players and mods.
How many players can a Project Zomboid server handle?
Small co-op groups are easy to run, and larger communities scale with RAM, mods, and map activity. Keep experimental servers whitelisted and smaller while the game is still changing.
