GodLike.Host Review 2026: Hardware, Prices and Who It Suits
GodLike.Host puts its game servers on some of the fastest processors available, adds DDoS protection and daily backups at no extra cost, and lets UK players host in the UK. You pay for that: regular prices start at £5.59/mo ($7.99) for a small Minecraft server and rise quickly as you add memory.
Is GodLike.Host good?
Yes, for groups that care more about a smooth server than the lowest price. GodLike runs AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D and EPYC 9474F processors on NVMe storage, protects every server against DDoS attacks through Path.net, takes up to 3 backups a day for free and has a UK location. Its panel and Discord bot make day-to-day running easy.
The trade-off is value. Memory costs about £2.80 to £3.00 per GB at regular prices, so a busy modded server gets expensive, and the money-back window is only 3 days. We score GodLike 7.8 out of 10: excellent hardware and features held back by price. If budget comes first, start with our cheapest game server hosts.
Who are GodLike.Host?
GodLike.Host is a game server host with locations in Europe, North America and Asia-Pacific. It covers the big survival and sandbox games (Minecraft, Rust, Palworld, ARK, Terraria, Valheim) as well as Counter-Strike 2 and many more, and it sells each game with its own set of plans, named after things from that game.
Its pitch is premium hardware. Instead of competing on the lowest price, GodLike puts high-end AMD processors in its servers and includes extras that other hosts often charge for, such as daily backups and a personal firewall. That makes it a host for people who have had a laggy server before and do not want that again.
GodLike.Host prices for UK players
GodLike shows prices in pounds to UK visitors, so the figures below are its own GBP prices, with US dollars in brackets where GodLike lists them. They are the regular monthly prices. GodLike often shows a big discount on your first order, but that applies only once, so the price below is what you pay from the second month onwards.
Minecraft plans
| Plan | Memory | Players (guide) | Regular price | Per GB |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Double | 2GB | 5–10 | £5.59/mo ($7.99) | £2.79 |
| Quadro | 4GB | 20+ | £11.99/mo ($15.99) | £3.00 |
| Ultra | 6GB | 30+ | £16.99/mo ($23.99) | £2.83 |
| Unstoppable | 8GB | 40+ | £22.99/mo ($31.99) | £2.87 |
| Immortal | 12GB | 80+ | £33.99/mo ($47.99) | £2.83 |
| Legendary | 16GB | 120+ | £44.99/mo ($63.99) | £2.81 |
| Godlike | 20GB | 200+ | £56.99/mo ($79.99) | £2.85 |
Why the per-GB figure matters: memory is what you mostly pay for with a game server, and GodLike charges close to the same rate for every gigabyte, from the smallest plan to the largest. There is no bulk saving on bigger plans. Budget hosts often sit closer to £1 to £2 per GB, which is why GodLike scores low on value even though the hardware is better.
Rust plans
| Plan | Memory | Player slots | Regular price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Compound | 10GB | 50 | £22.99/mo ($31.99) |
| Pump | 12GB | 75 | £28.99/mo ($39.99) |
| Python | 14GB | 100 | £33.99/mo ($47.99) |
| Thompson | 18GB | 150 | £44.99/mo ($63.99) |
| Bolt | 22GB | 200 | £56.99/mo ($79.99) |
| Rocket | 26GB | 250 | £67.99/mo ($95.99) |
Palworld plans
| Plan | Memory | Player slots | Regular price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lamball | 4GB | 2 | £11.99/mo |
| Pengullet | 8GB | 5 | £22.99/mo |
| Sweepa | 12GB | 8 | £33.99/mo |
| Jetragon | 16GB | 12 | £44.99/mo |
| Wumpo | 20GB | 16 | £56.99/mo |
Larger Palworld plans go up to 36GB for £101.99 a month. Palworld needs more memory than most games, which is why its plans start at 4GB.
Cheapest plan for popular games

Hardware: why the processor matters
GodLike runs its game servers on AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D and AMD EPYC 9474F processors, with NVMe storage.
Most game servers do the bulk of their work on one processor core. Each “tick”, the server works out what every player, creature and machine is doing, and if one core cannot keep up, everyone feels it as lag or rubber-banding. The Ryzen 9 9950X3D is one of the fastest chips available for this kind of work: it has a very high clock speed and an extra-large cache, a small pool of memory built into the processor so the game can reach data it uses often without waiting. That helps most in Minecraft with lots of mods or farms, and in Rust with big bases and many players.
The EPYC 9474F is a server processor with many cores. It is less about one core being fast and more about running lots of work side by side. Storage is NVMe on every plan, which speeds up world saves and loading.
What this means for you: if your server has struggled before with heavy modpacks or a busy Rust map, this is the kind of hardware that helps. For a small vanilla server with a few friends, most hosts are fast enough and you will not notice the difference.
Server locations and ping
GodLike has 12 locations. For UK players the important one is the UK. Ping is the time it takes for data to travel between your PC and the server, and the shorter the distance, the lower it is. A UK server keeps ping low for players across Great Britain and Ireland, which matters most in fast games such as Counter-Strike 2 and Rust.
Europe
UK, Netherlands, Germany, Finland, Poland, Ukraine
North America
USA East, USA West, Canada
Asia-Pacific
Singapore, India, Australia
If your group is spread across Europe, the Netherlands or Germany sit in the middle and are a good choice. The free Minecraft plan is only available in Ukraine, so do not judge UK ping from it.
Protection, backups and panel
DDoS protection
Every server is covered by Path.net, with up to 12TB of protection. A DDoS attack floods a server with fake traffic to knock it offline, which happens more often to public servers than people expect.
Up to 3 backups a day
Included for free. If a mod breaks your world or someone griefs your base, you can roll back to a recent copy instead of starting over.
Discord bot
Start, stop and check your server from your Discord, so admins do not have to log in to the panel for small jobs.
Personal firewall
Lets you block or allow connections yourself, useful if a single troublemaker keeps reconnecting.
Sub-users
Give co-admins their own access to the panel instead of sharing one login.
One-click modpacks
Install Minecraft modpacks from CurseForge, Modrinth and FTB from the panel. Free server import moves your world from another host.
Setup is fast. GodLike says a new server is ready in under 2 minutes, and around 10 minutes for a large modpack.
Player slots: two different rules
Every GodLike plan lists a number of players. GodLike’s terms of service say that number is the maximum number of players for the plan. But on Minecraft, GodLike’s own FAQ says players are unlimited on every plan and the numbers are only a recommendation.
Why does this matter? On a Minecraft server, memory and processor decide how many players you can really fit, so a slot number is mostly a guide. In games like Rust and Palworld the slot count is built into the plan. If you expect more players than your plan lists, ask GodLike support before you buy, so you know which rule applies to your game.
Free plan and refunds
Free Minecraft plan
2GB of memory for a day at a time. You must extend it every 3 hours, some panel features are switched off and it runs in Ukraine only. Good for trying the panel, not for judging a UK server.
3-day money-back
A refund within 3 days of your first purchase, at most once per calendar year. Add-ons and plan upgrades are not refunded.
Worth knowing: 3 days is short. Set up your server and invite your group on day one, so you can decide well inside the window.
Trustpilot
GodLike.Host’s Trustpilot page does not currently show a rating. Trustpilot says the company’s rating is unavailable due to a breach of its guidelines, and that it has removed a number of fake reviews for the company (checked 1 November 2026). The written reviews are still visible on the page.
How we score GodLike.Host
Hardware (9.5) reflects the Ryzen 9 9950X3D and EPYC processors with NVMe on every plan. Features (9.0) and uptime and security (9.0) come from the free daily backups, Path.net DDoS protection, Discord bot and firewall. Value (4.0) is low because memory costs about £2.80 to £3.00 per GB at regular prices with no saving on bigger plans. That is what pulls the overall score down to 7.8.

Is GodLike.Host the right host for you?
Good fit
Heavy Minecraft modpacks, busy Rust servers and communities that have outgrown a budget host and want fast hardware, daily backups and a UK location without managing anything themselves.
Think twice
A few friends on a vanilla server, or anyone on a tight budget. You would be paying for power you do not use. Compare prices on our cheapest game server hosts page first.

GodLike.Host frequently asked questions
Is GodLike.Host good?
Yes, if you want strong hardware and plenty of features and you are happy to pay a little more for it. GodLike runs AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D and EPYC 9474F processors with NVMe storage, includes DDoS protection and up to 3 backups a day, and has a UK location. The catch is price: at regular prices you pay about £2.80 to £3.00 per GB of memory on Minecraft, which is more than budget hosts charge. We score it 7.8 out of 10.
How much does GodLike.Host cost?
At regular monthly prices, Minecraft starts at £5.59 for 2GB, Terraria at £5.99, Counter-Strike 2 at £7.99, Palworld at £11.99 for 4GB and Rust at £22.99 for 10GB. GodLike often shows a discount on your first order, but that only applies once, so we list the price you pay from the second month.
Does GodLike.Host have UK servers?
Yes. The UK is one of GodLike’s locations, alongside the Netherlands, Germany, Finland, Poland, Ukraine, USA East, USA West, Canada, Singapore, India and Australia. Pick the UK at checkout for players in Great Britain and Ireland.
Does GodLike.Host offer refunds?
Yes, but the window is short. You can get your money back within 3 days of your first purchase. It only applies to your first order, at most once per calendar year, and add-ons and plan upgrades are not refunded.
Is there a free GodLike.Host server?
GodLike offers a free Minecraft plan with 2GB of memory. It runs for a day at a time, you have to extend it every 3 hours, some panel features are limited and it is hosted in Ukraine only. It is fine for a quick try of the panel, but not a fair test of how a paid UK server will feel.
Are player slots limited on GodLike.Host?
Each plan lists a slot count, and GodLike’s terms say that number is the maximum number of players. On Minecraft, GodLike’s own FAQ says players are unlimited and the slot numbers are only a guide. If you expect more players than your plan lists, ask support before you buy so you know which rule applies to your game.
What processors does GodLike.Host use?
GodLike uses AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D and AMD EPYC 9474F processors with NVMe storage. The Ryzen 9 9950X3D has very high single-core speed and a large cache, which suits games such as Minecraft and Rust where one busy core decides how smooth the server feels.
