Your own Alien Swarm server, hosted in Australia

A Alien Swarm dedicated server gives your group a server that is always online, with settings, admins and passwords you control, instead of relying on one player to host from their own computer. ASPEC Hosting is Australian owned, so your Alien Swarm server sits in Australia near your players and is billed in Australian dollars.

Co-op games are best on a dedicated server: nobody has to host from their own PC, the whole group connects to the same place, and the server keeps going if one player drops. Most co-op and zombie servers are light on memory and are configured through a simple config file with difficulty, map cycle and player limits.

How it works

  3. PlayOnce paid, your server goes live and you manage it from the control panel.
Start building

No host player needed

The game runs on the server, so the session does not end when the person who would have hosted goes to bed.

Private or public

Lock the server with a password for your group, or open it up and let your community find it in the server browser.

Small plans go far

Most co-op servers need little memory, so the smallest plan usually covers a full lobby.

Alien Swarm server hosting FAQ

How much does Alien Swarm server hosting cost in Australia?

Plans start at $12.00 AUD a month. For Alien Swarm we usually suggest starting on Standard ($20.00 a month on Dedicated, or $12.00 on Budget Hosting). Longer billing cycles carry a discount, and we confirm the plan with you before anything is charged.

How much RAM does a Alien Swarm server need?

It depends on your player count, map size and mods. Standard (2 GB RAM, 30 GB storage) is a sensible start for most Alien Swarm groups. Tell us how many players and which mods you expect when you build your server, and we will recommend a plan before invoicing.

How do I get a Alien Swarm server?

Build your server: pick Dedicated or Budget Hosting, a location, Alien Swarm and a plan, then create your account. Alien Swarm is set up by our team rather than installed instantly, so your build arrives as a setup request. We confirm the details and send an invoice, and nothing is charged before that.

Where are your Alien Swarm servers hosted?

In Australia. Our locations are Sydney and Melbourne. Each location's current availability is shown on the locations page.

What is the difference between Dedicated and Budget Hosting for Alien Swarm?

Both come with the same memory and storage. Dedicated gives your Alien Swarm server its own CPU allocation for steady performance. Budget Hosting runs on shared CPU cores for 40% less, which suits smaller groups; performance can vary when neighbouring servers are busy.

Can I switch my Alien Swarm server to a different game later?

Yes. You buy game server capacity, not a single game. Ask us to install another game and keep the same plan, location and billing.

Can I make my Alien Swarm server private?

Yes. Where Alien Swarm supports a join password or whitelist, set it in the server's config so only your group can join.
