Best Terraria Server Hosting UK (Nov 2026)

Terraria is one of the lightest games to host, so the right server comes down to value, mod support and a host you can try before you pay. Decide between tModLoader for content mods and TShock for plugins first, because a server runs one or the other. We compared 30 hosts that sell Terraria today on price, RAM, UK locations, mods, backups and trial or refund terms.

Quick verdict: Indifferent Broccoli is our #1: a two-day free trial and no hard RAM cap, with six players from £9.77/mo ($12.99). Host Havoc is the pick for London and quick support from £5.26/mo ($7.00), and LOW.MS adds automatic cloud backups and a five-day money-back window from £7.59/mo ($10.10).

Prices come from each host’s public plan page, converted at £1 = $1.33. Our full process is on the how we compare game server hosts page.

Indifferent Broccoli prices Terraria by player count: six players cost £9.77/mo ($12.99) a month, with plans from £4.50/mo ($5.99) for one player up to £18.79/mo ($24.99) for 32. There is no hard RAM cap, so a growing world or a tModLoader pack such as Calamity has room without a forced upgrade.

You can launch a two-day free trial before you pay, which is the easiest way to see how your own world and mods run. Frankfurt is close to the UK for a 2D game like Terraria.

tModLoader or TShock: pick one before you order

tModLoaderRuns content mods such as Calamity, Thorium and Fargo’s. PC only.
TShockPlugins for vanilla-compatible public servers: anti-grief, regions and admin commands.
One or the otherA server runs tModLoader or TShock, not both. Switching later usually means a fresh world.
Mobile playerstModLoader is PC only. Mobile players join a vanilla or TShock server on the same game version as PC.

Our modded Terraria hosting guide covers tModLoader hosts in more depth, and our Terraria mobile hosting guide covers mobile players.

Update

Terraria 1.4.5 and native crossplay

Terraria 1.4.5, Bigger and Boulder, arrived in January 2026 for the game’s 15th anniversary, with crossover content from Dead Cells and Palworld. Patch 1.4.5.7 reached PC on 19 August 2026. In September, Re-Logic said Crossplay Phase One (1.4.6) should arrive in the near future, though there is no exact date yet.

PC and mobile players can already share a standard dedicated server when both run the same version. When a patch lands on PC first, as 1.4.5.7 did, a TShock server with a crossplay plugin can bridge the gap until mobile catches up. If you run tModLoader, pin your mod versions and test a big patch on a copy of your world before updating the live server.

RAM

How much RAM does a Terraria server need?

Mods, not player count, push Terraria’s memory use up. A heavily modded six-player world can use more than a vanilla server with twenty players. These are practical allowances rather than official minimums.

ServerPractical RAMWhy
Vanilla, small group (up to 8)1–2GBA 2D world is light on memory
Vanilla public (10–30)2–4GBMore players and a bigger world
tModLoader, light mods3–4GBQuality-of-life and small content mods
Calamity, Thorium or big packs4–8GBLarge content mods use the most
Large public TShock server4GB+Plugins, events and many NPC towns

Terraria’s dedicated server uses port 7777 by default. Our game server hardware guide covers CPU, RAM and storage in more depth.

Terraria is forgiving on ping, but a UK server still keeps boss fights and building feel snappy, especially for players further from Frankfurt or Amsterdam.

Self-hosting

Self-hosting vs renting a Terraria server

Terraria’s dedicated server ships free with the game on Windows, Linux and macOS, so you can run it on your own PC or a VPS. It is light enough for almost any machine, but the server is only up while that machine is on.

Self-hostRented server
CostFree software; you pay for the machine and powerFrom £2.89/mo ($3.84)

SetupPort 7777, firewall and config files yourselfInstalled for you
ModsInstall tModLoader or TShock by handOne-click on most hosts
BackupsYour jobIncluded on most hosts

A managed host installs the server, handles networking and supplies a panel. A Game Panel VPS from Hostinger gives you root access with one-click Terraria installs. Our Terraria dedicated server setup guide, free Terraria server hosting guide and self-hosting guide cover the details.

FAQ

Terraria server hosting FAQ

What is the best Terraria server host in the UK?

Indifferent Broccoli is our #1, with a two-day free trial and no hard RAM cap. Host Havoc is the pick for London and quick support, and LOW.MS adds cloud backups. Our Indifferent Broccoli review covers it in depth.

What is the difference between tModLoader and TShock?

tModLoader runs content mods such as Calamity and Thorium, but it is PC only. TShock is a plugin framework for vanilla-compatible servers, with anti-grief tools, admin commands and crossplay plugins. A server runs one or the other, not both.

How much RAM does a Terraria server need?

1–2GB is enough for a small vanilla world. Larger vanilla servers use 2–4GB, and tModLoader servers with Calamity or Thorium should start at 4GB, with up to 8GB for big packs.

Can mobile players join my Terraria server?

Not a tModLoader server, because content mods are PC only. Mobile players can join a vanilla or TShock server when they run the same game version as PC, and a crossplay plugin on TShock can bridge a short version gap. See our Terraria mobile hosting guide.

Is native crossplay coming to Terraria?

Yes. Re-Logic said in September 2026 that Crossplay Phase One (1.4.6) should arrive in the near future, but there is no release date yet.

What’s new in Terraria 1.4.5?

Bigger and Boulder launched in January 2026 for the 15th anniversary, with crafting, inventory and world-generation improvements and crossover content from Dead Cells and Palworld.

Which Terraria hosts have UK servers?

14 of the 30 hosts here show a London or UK location, including Host Havoc, LOW.MS, ScalaCube, Nitrado, GTX Gaming and Sparked Host. The UK servers section above lists them all.

Can I try a Terraria server for free?

Yes. Indifferent Broccoli has a two-day free trial, PingPerfect a 48-hour trial, Nodecraft a 24-hour trial and RocketNode a one-day trial, and ScalaCube has a free plan. See our free Terraria server hosting guide.

What is the cheapest Terraria server hosting in the UK?

ScalaCube starts at £2.89/mo ($3.84) for six slots and Epic Hosts at £2.99/mo ($3.98) for five players. See our cheap game server hosting guide.

Should I update my modded world after a Terraria patch?

Not straight away. tModLoader mods can take time to catch up, so pin your versions and test the update on a copy of your world first.
