# Arma 3 server hosting > Arma 3 server hosting opens on Wilderack once Bohemia gives its OK. Join the waitlist for uploaded mods, Creator DLC missions and fast cores. Facts checked November 2026. Coming soon, once Bohemia says yes. **Coming soon.** Arma 3 servers are on the way. Bohemia's server license is for personal use and rules out renting Arma 3 servers or using them commercially, and its server only downloads with a signed-in Steam account, which we never use. Arma 3 opens on Wilderack once Bohemia gives us its written OK and a way to download the server. Plans will start at 4 GB, with 6 GB recommended for most groups. Join the waitlist on the page to hear the day Arma 3 opens: https://wilderack.com/arma-3-server-hosting/#waitlist - Upload your mods and their keys - Creator DLC server data - Difficulty and voice chat as switches - BattlEye on from the start - Daily off-site backups - Stays awake for the server list - DDoS protection included - Regions: US East and Europe soon - Secure payments by Stripe ## Why always-on servers cost more Most Wilderack servers nap when nobody’s playing and wake the moment someone joins. While they sleep, the memory they free runs other people’s servers, so you only pay for your share of it. Some games, like Rust, need to stay on around the clock to stay on their public server lists. Their memory can’t be shared while they run, so they cost more to host, and their plans are priced from what they really cost. The same 6 GB plan, paid monthly: $17.99 a month if it sleeps when idle, $26.99 a month always on. ## Why host Arma 3 with Wilderack - **Your mods, in your order.** Upload your @mod folders and their keys, list them in the panel, and we pass them to the server for you. - **Creator DLC missions.** Pick the Creator DLC build to host S.O.G. Prairie Fire, Global Mobilization and the other Creator DLC. - **Fast cores for big missions.** Arma runs each mission on one main thread, so it gets fast single cores, from 4 GB for small groups to 12 GB for heavy mod sets. - **Admin without the config files.** Server name, password, difficulty, voice chat and BattlEye are switches in the panel, and your #login password is ready. ## A panel that does the hard parts Every server includes: ### Robust control Everything you need to run your server, in a panel that works on your phone too. - **Integrated file manager.** Edit configs, upload worlds and manage mods right in your browser. - **Web and SFTP file access.** Use the browser or your favorite SFTP app, whichever you like. - **Live server console.** Watch the log stream in real time and run commands as you play. - **Automate your tasks.** Schedule restarts, backups, updates and commands so they run on their own. ### Easy life The boring bits are done for you, so you can get back to playing. - **Free .gg address.** A short address like castle.tosk.gg to share with friends, instead of a string of numbers. - **Room for your own mods.** Upload any mod made for a dedicated server to the mods folder, with the file manager or SFTP. - **Save and swap games.** Switch your server to another game whenever you want, with no swap fees. Your old world is saved. - **DDoS protection.** Attacks are filtered at our gateway before they ever reach your server. ### Smart by design Built from scratch on modern infrastructure, not a decade-old panel. - **Always on, always listed.** Your Arma 3 server never sleeps, so it keeps its place on the public server list. - **Daily off-site backups.** Worlds are copied to separate storage every day, with one-click restore. - **Fast NVMe storage.** Worlds load quickly and autosaves never stall the game. - **US East and Europe.** Pick the region closest to your friends for the lowest ping. ## About Arma 3 Arma 3 hosting isn't open yet.

Arma 3's server license only allows personal use and rules out renting servers, so we won't sell one until Bohemia gives us its written OK. Join the waitlist to hear the day it opens. ### How much RAM does an Arma 3 server need? At least 4 GB. 6 GB suits about 40 players on a vanilla mission, and servers running ACE, RHS or CUP do best on 8 GB or more. ### Can I use Steam Workshop mods? You upload them. Arma 3's Workshop needs a Steam account that owns the game, and we never sign in with yours or ours, so you upload the @mod folders and their keys. Players load the same mods in the Arma 3 Launcher. ### How do players find my server? By name in the Arma 3 Launcher's server list or the in-game server browser. They can also use Direct Connect with your address and port. ### Can I charge players on my Arma 3 server? Only within Bohemia's server monetization rules, which ask you to register your server with Bohemia before you charge anyone. Our guide links them. ### Can I switch to a different game later? Yes. Swap your server to any game your plan can run, as often as you like, with no swap fees. Your old world is saved so you can switch back. ### How old do I need to be? Wilderack is for players aged 13 and up. If you are under 18, a parent or guardian needs to agree to the purchase. _Arma 3 is a trademark of Bohemia Interactive a.s.
