Renown server hosting built for medieval PvP.

Renown servers support up to 100 concurrent players, though most communities run smaller groups optimised around their preferred playstyle. The server type you choose shapes everything from PvP intensity to wipe frequency.

Clan warfare and large community servers

Clan warfare servers (roughly 20 to 50 players) are the sweet spot for organised groups — large enough for epic clan battles, sieges and territorial control, supporting multiple competing clans and emergent storylines. Large community servers (50 to 100 players) run public or whitelisted and create the most dramatic emergent gameplay, but need careful management and strong administration.

Small group, hardcore and building servers

Small group servers (2 to 10 players) suit friends who want to build complex medieval structures without constant PvP threat. Hardcore PvP servers run maxed difficulty, fast resource depletion and frequent wipes for the most competitive players, while building-focused servers lower the PvP threat with longer wipe cycles and higher building rates. All of these are possible with full control over difficulty, multipliers, building rates, PvP rules and wipe schedules from the panel.

Self-hosting Renown from a home PC sounds cheaper on paper, but it rarely is. Renown is a demanding, CPU-bound server, and running it locally ties up your own machine, exposes your home IP and bandwidth to attack, and takes your server offline whenever your power, internet or PC has a wobble. A residential connection has neither the bandwidth nor the DDoS protection to survive the attacks competitive PvP servers routinely attract.

Renting a dedicated Renown server solves all of this. EUGameHost includes always-on DDoS protection free on every plan, a 10 Gbps network, full file access for deep customisation, automatic backups and 24/7 support for when something needs a human — all behind a browser-based control panel and live console. With no contracts, you can cancel anytime, so renting carries none of the long-term risk of buying and maintaining your own hardware.

Renown is a CPU-intensive game server. Every player action generates physics calculations, collision detection and combat resolution, and siege engines, castle building and full-loot mechanics all add server load. That makes CPU clock speed the single biggest factor in how smoothly the server runs — especially at peak time with a full lobby.

The pressure point is a busy server during a large clan conflict. When dozens of players fight, build and besiege at once, the simulation load spikes and a low-clock or oversold CPU sees performance collapse, producing the desync and rubber-banding that ruin skill-based melee. A strong processor, fast memory and quick storage are what hold performance steady when it matters most.

CPU, memory and storage

EUGameHost runs every Renown plan on high-clock Intel Xeon CPUs (3.8GHz+) for the per-core throughput Renown depends on, paired with DDR4 memory sized generously for large player counts, complex world states and mod libraries. Unlimited NVMe SSD storage slashes the time it takes to save the world and restart the server after a wipe, and a 10 Gbps network keeps player synchronisation smooth during large-scale sieges so bandwidth is never the bottleneck.

Renown is built on the Enfusion engine and is highly moddable from day one, with Steam Workshop support and extensive modding tools as a core design principle. Community-created content keeps servers fresh and is a big part of what makes long-running Renown communities thrive.

On EUGameHost you can install and manage mods from Steam Workshop or upload custom content with unlimited capacity. You can add new weapons and armour, building materials, siege engines and gameplay mechanics, tweak damage values, gathering rates and building speed, and even alter the world itself. Our servers handle automatic mod synchronisation, so players never struggle with manual downloads or version conflicts.

Renown server hosting is priced mainly on the player capacity you need. A small clan server costs very little to run, while a busy 100-player public server needs more horsepower — and the pricing reflects that.

EUGameHost's Renown plans start from £4.80 per month, with Starter sized for up to 24 players, Pro for up to 64 players and Ultra for the full 100-player experience. Billing is flexible: pay monthly, or commit annually and save 15%. There are no contracts and you can cancel anytime, so you're free to scale your plan up before a big launch or wipe and adjust it afterwards without penalty.

Location is the difference between responsive combat and a server that feels laggy for half your players. Renown is sensitive to latency — blocks, swings and dodges all come down to fractions of a second — so you want your server hosted as close as possible to the bulk of your player base to keep ping low and synchronisation tight.

EUGameHost offers Renown locations in the United Kingdom (London) and the United States (Dallas), with routing optimised for European and North American players. London is the natural home for UK and European communities, while Dallas serves North America with low latency. Run the live latency test at the top of this page to check your real ping to each before you buy, and where your community spans continents, consider a separate server per region so nobody is stuck at a high-ping disadvantage.
