Introducing Nodecraft Lite - Budget Server Hosting
Our new product, Nodecraft Lite, offers the same high-quality server hosting experience at lower costs.
Unlike Nodecraft Pro game servers that run 24/7, Nodecraft Lite Servers are only online when players actively use them.
Server owners are given a password-protected Wake & Play Share Link to share with anyone to wake the server from hibernation.
For a full list of feature differences between our Pro and Lite packages, check out the chart above labeled "Budget or Premium?".
Customer Reviews:
Still on the fence? Read why customers say we're the best 7d2d server host!
I have been a Nodecraft customer for a couple of years and have never had a negative interaction with their support. For this most recent issue, an update to 7 Days to Die left my server in an unplayable state and the customer service agent that answered my ticket was able to explain the problem and recommend a path forward that makes me able to play again.
"The best server company in the community. Nodecraft supplies the community with some of the best servers that you could imagine. The NodePanel is very easy to get use. The support service is so fast, and is always able to help out in any situation. The servers run so well, that a modded server can start within about 30 seconds. Whenever you need a game server, you can always count on Nodecraft to host it with the best performance imaginable."

7 Days to Die
After World War 3, the world is left in ruins. An unknown virus transformed the human survivors into roving hordes of zombies and you stand as one of the few remaining survivors.
You spawn in Navezgane County, AZ and are immersed in an open world where you can harvest materials, build bases, craft items, explore Navezgane (or a randomly generated world), and of course, wreck some zombies!
7 Days to Die servers can be PvE or PvP. When you set host with us, you decide what you want your server rules to be!
