Enshrouded server hosting
Run your own Enshrouded dedicated server on a Nxeon VPS — full root access, NVMe storage, up to 16 players, DDoS protection, and a dedicated IPv4. From $20.99/mo.
A dedicated Enshrouded server keeps your survival world running 24/7 so your group can build and explore whenever they log on. On a Nxeon VPS you get full root over SSH to install the server with SteamCMD (app 2278520) and tune enshrouded_server.json exactly how you want.
Enshrouded idles around 4.4 GB and adds roughly 100 MB per player, so RAM headroom matters for a full lobby. Our plans run on enterprise NVMe (ZFS) with a dedicated IPv4, always-on DDoS protection, and automatic backups so your world is always safe.
6 GB is the minimum and 16 GB is recommended for a full 16-player server, so our Pro 8 GB plan suits a small group while the Max 16 GB plan is the pick for a busy world. Resize any time as your player list grows.
