What is Gaming Deluxe and what does it offer?

Gaming Deluxe is a UK-based game server hosting provider that has been operating since 2004. It rents pre-configured game servers for more than 200 titles, running on NVMe SSDs and 5.0GHz+ CPUs, with DDoS protection and 24/7 support included. It is aimed at individuals and communities who want a server online quickly without managing the underlying hardware. If you need a specific game not in its catalogue, or you want full root-level control of a bare-metal machine, check the details below before ordering.

What Gaming Deluxe provides

The core product is a rented game server: you pick a game, choose a specification, and the server is deployed automatically. According to the site, setup completes "usually within 20 minutes" of payment clearing, with no support ticket required.

Included with hosting, per the provider's own description:

• Instant setup — server online within about 20 minutes
• DDoS protection — described as "always included free"
• 5.0GHz+ CPUs and NVMe SSD storage
• 24/7 support — the site states "real humans, always"
• Full mod support and configuration help

The provider also offers dedicated servers alongside game servers, and publishes step-by-step setup guides for titles such as DayZ, ARK, Arma 3, Rust and Conan Exiles.

Supported games and starting prices

The site lists 200+ supported games. These are the titles with published starting prices:

Prices are "from" figures and will rise with the specification you configure — slots, RAM, CPU and so on. Treat them as entry points, not the cost of a server sized for a large community.

Who it suits

Gaming Deluxe is a reasonable fit if:

• You want a UK-based host and low latency for UK/European players
• You play one of the 200+ supported titles and want a managed server rather than a self-administered VPS
• You value fast deployment and included DDoS protection over deep customisation
• You want mod support without building the stack yourself

It may be a poorer fit if you need a game outside the supported list, want unmanaged root access, or require a hosting location outside the UK.

Track record and reputation

The provider cites the following figures:

• 22+ years in operation (since 2004)
• 50,000+ customers
• 200+ games supported
• 99.9% uptime
• 4.8 rating on Trustpilot, based on 82+ reviews

Published reviews are positive and consistent in theme. A June 2024 reviewer (M MC) highlighted fast help with maps and mods; an October 2023 reviewer (Rob W) reported no downtime on an Arma 3 server; a 2019 reviewer noted long-term familiarity with the company. These are individual accounts rather than a systematic sample, so weigh them alongside the review count.

How to get started

1. Pick your game — search the catalogue of 200+ titles and configure the server specification for your community size.
2. Deploy — the server is set up automatically once payment clears, usually within 20 minutes, with no ticket needed.
3. Start playing — connect, add mods and invite players; the provider handles the infrastructure.

If you are unsure which specification fits your player count, the setup guides for each game are the most useful starting point before you configure.
