Dysterra Server Hosting, Explained

What is Dysterra?

New to Dysterra?

What is Dysterra?

Dysterra is a free-to-play sci-fi survival FPS from Reality MagiQ. Humanity lives on Orbis, a giant satellite, and sends you down to a ruined Earth to gather Terrasite, the mineral that now powers everything. On Ararat Island you mine metal, stone and Terrasite, build and power a base, craft weapons and armour, and fight robots, mercenaries and other players. Every server has a lifespan: take the island's facilities to push back the Terrafire eruption, and escape on the rocket before it ends the world.

Build and Raid.

Build a stronghold with your team, or go solo and loot other players' bases.

A Fresh Start Every Wipe.

Skills reset when the server wipes, so every world plays a little differently.

Why rent a server?

What is Dysterra Server Hosting?

Custom servers are the only way to play Dysterra online, and a dedicated one keeps your island up around the clock, without a PC left on at home or ports to forward. On our servers you set the server name, description, password and player limit in the panel, tune combat, gathering, building and the world's lifetime in the config editor, and get full file access over SFTP and SSH.

Always Online.

Your world keeps running when you log off, so your group can play any time.

Full Control.

Set your rules, your wipe timing and your password, for PvP or PvE.
