For a Terraria server in 2026, Shockbyte is the only host in the comparison with plans from €4.28/month for 4 vanilla players (2 GB) and €8.56/month for 12 modded players (4 GB). It's one of the cheapest games to host.

How to choose your Terraria host: essential criteria
Recommended RAM based on your usage
| Configuration | Players | Recommended RAM | Estimated price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vanilla / small group | 2 to 8 players | 1 to 2 GB | €4–8/month |
| tModLoader / light mods | 4 to 12 players | 2 to 4 GB | €7–12/month |
| Heavy modpack (Calamity + mods) | 4 to 16 players | 4 to 6 GB | €10–18/month |
| Community TShock server | 16 to 64 players | 4 to 8 GB | €12–25/month |
Location and latency
Shockbyte has nodes in Western Europe. Since Terraria is a 2D game with low latency requirements, a European data center is sufficient for a good experience. Latency becomes noticeable beyond 100ms during co-op boss fights.
Control panel
