CS2 Dedicated Server on a VPS from €12/mo

Run your own Counter-Strike 2 dedicated server on a VPS: 4–8 GB RAM is plenty for a 10-player 128-tick server, full root access, 8 GB from €12/mo. Step-by-step guide with GSLT token.

What you get

  • 8 GB of RAM from €12/mo — more than a 10-player 128-tick server needs, with room for extras.
  • steamcmd install — the server downloads from Steam and runs as its own Linux user.
  • GSLT token walkthrough — the one non-obvious step before your server shows up in the browser.
  • Full root access and a dedicated IPv4 — install whatever your community needs.

An honest note about ping

Our servers are in the EU, on the French–German border (Lauterbourg). From Russia and Ukraine expect 40–80 ms — fine for scrims with friends; competitive players will feel it. Players in Europe get lower latency.

Set it up step by step

The full walkthrough is in our guide CS2 server on a VPS: steamcmd, the GSLT token, launch options and firewall rules.
