Top 5 Arma 3 Server Hosts in 2026

Use this 2026 ranking to compare Arma 3 hosts by memory, protection, locations and practical server features. We also prioritise providers that list both Arma 3 and Arma Reforger.

How we ranked these Arma 3 hosts

We prioritised providers that list both Arma 3 and Arma Reforger, because the two games appear as separate listings and that broader choice can help if your group plays both. We then considered RAM, DDoS protection, storage, backups, support, server locations and whether you can access files or change games. All five hosts list Arma 3 and DDoS protection; Server.pro lists Arma 3 alone, so it sits below the four that list both titles. We rank on listed specs and features rather than lab tests.

1. BisectHosting

BisectHosting is our top pick for a group that wants both Arma titles plus a broad choice of server locations. Its listing includes 2 GB RAM, NVMe SSD storage, daily backups and DDoS protection. You can choose a server in the Netherlands, and the provider lists 24/7 availability. Unlimited listed player slots and the ability to switch games add flexibility if your community changes focus.

• Strengths: Arma 3 and Arma Reforger are both listed; NVMe SSD storage; daily backups; DDoS protection; Netherlands location; live chat and ticket support.
• Limits: The listed plan has 2 GB RAM; no dedicated IP is listed; the money-back period is three days.

Choose BisectHosting if local hosting in the Netherlands, daily backups and a large location selection matter more to you than having the highest RAM figure here. The provider also lists file access, sub-users, scheduled tasks and a built-in mod or plugin installer, which can help when several people manage the server.

2. Kinetic Hosting

Kinetic Hosting offers 4 GB RAM while listing both Arma 3 and Arma Reforger. It includes DDoS protection, NVMe SSD storage, backups and a Netherlands location, with 24/7 availability listed. For an Arma group comparing the first two entries, Kinetic has twice the listed memory of BisectHosting, though its storage is capped at 60 GB.

• Strengths: 4 GB RAM; both Arma titles; NVMe SSD storage; DDoS protection; Netherlands location; live chat, tickets and Discord support; seven-day money-back period.
• Limits: Storage is listed as 60 GB; no dedicated IP is listed; billing is monthly only.

This suits you if you want the higher listed RAM allocation and direct access to several support channels. Kinetic also lists file access, scheduled tasks and game switching. Check whether the 60 GB storage allowance suits your planned mission files and any other content you intend to keep on the server.

3. Nitrado

Nitrado pairs 4 GB RAM with DDoS protection, backups and a stated 99.9% uptime guarantee. Both Arma 3 and Arma Reforger are listed, and the service offers live chat, ticket and Discord support. Its own control panel, file access and game switching give you a practical route to manage the server, while daily backups are specifically listed.

• Strengths: 4 GB RAM; both Arma titles; DDoS protection; daily backups; 24/7 availability; 99.9% uptime guarantee; support in seven listed languages.
• Limits: No Netherlands server is listed; storage is identified as SSD rather than NVMe SSD; the provider lists nine locations.

Nitrado is a sensible option if its guarantee, daily backups and multilingual support matter to your group. Its listed locations include Germany and the United Kingdom, but not the Netherlands, so compare the available locations against where your players connect from before choosing.

4. Shockbyte

Shockbyte lists both Arma titles, DDoS protection and a Netherlands server, alongside NVMe SSD storage and unlimited listed storage. It also lists 24/7 availability, backups, an installer for mods or plugins and game switching. The main trade-off is the plan’s 1 GB RAM allocation, the lowest listed among these five hosts.

• Strengths: Arma 3 and Arma Reforger; Netherlands location; DDoS protection; NVMe SSD storage; unlimited listed storage; live chat, tickets and Discord; 99.9% uptime guarantee.
• Limits: 1 GB RAM; no dedicated IP is listed; the money-back period is three days.

Consider Shockbyte if you value the Netherlands location and unlimited storage, and the listed memory is suitable for your intended setup. Don’t treat unlimited storage as a substitute for RAM: the provider lists just 1 GB, so weigh that limitation carefully before committing to a larger or more demanding server plan.

5. Server.pro

Server.pro is the only host in this ranking that lists Arma 3 without also listing Arma Reforger. It still offers 4 GB RAM, DDoS protection, NVMe SSD storage and a dedicated IP. A free trial is listed, which gives you a way to assess the service before settling on a subscription.

• Strengths: 4 GB RAM; DDoS protection; NVMe SSD storage; dedicated IP; free trial; daily backups; 24/7 availability.
• Limits: Arma Reforger is not listed; no Netherlands server is listed; storage is 40 GB; support is listed via tickets and Discord, not live chat.

Pick Server.pro if a dedicated IP or free trial is a priority and you only need Arma 3. Its listed locations include Germany, France and the United Kingdom, but not the Netherlands. It also lists file access, scheduled tasks and game switching, giving you useful management options beyond the trial.

Hosts that narrowly missed the top five

ZAP-Hosting lists both Arma titles, DDoS protection, daily backups and a Netherlands server, but its listed plan has 2 GB RAM and only four player slots. GGServers also lists both games and a 99.99% uptime guarantee, but offers 1 GB RAM and no Netherlands server.

How to choose an Arma 3 host

Start with where your players are. A Netherlands server is listed by BisectHosting, Kinetic Hosting and Shockbyte; Nitrado and Server.pro list other European locations, but not the Netherlands. Location alone does not establish the connection quality you will get, so select the nearest option available to your group.

Next, compare RAM and storage separately. Kinetic, Nitrado and Server.pro list 4 GB RAM, while BisectHosting lists 2 GB and Shockbyte 1 GB. Storage type and capacity also differ: several providers list NVMe SSDs, while Nitrado lists SSD storage without specifying NVMe. If you want Arma Reforger as well, check that it is explicitly listed; Server.pro is the exception here. Finally, consider backups, support channels and whether features such as a dedicated IP or free trial match how you plan to run the server in 2026.

Frequently asked questions

Which hosts in this ranking list both Arma 3 and Arma Reforger?

BisectHosting, Kinetic Hosting, Nitrado and Shockbyte list both Arma 3 and Arma Reforger. Server.pro lists Arma 3 but not Arma Reforger. We give priority to hosts that name both games because Reforger appears as a separate listing, so you can compare providers that explicitly support either title.

Which host lists the most RAM?

Kinetic Hosting, Nitrado and Server.pro each list 4 GB RAM, the largest allocation among these five entries. BisectHosting lists 2 GB, while Shockbyte lists 1 GB. RAM figures alone do not establish how a particular server will perform, so consider your intended setup and the provider’s other listed limits too.

Which providers list a Netherlands server?

BisectHosting, Kinetic Hosting and Shockbyte list a server in the Netherlands. Nitrado and Server.pro do not list a Netherlands location, though both show other European options. Choose a location close to your group where possible, but the listed location by itself does not guarantee a particular connection speed.

Does every host include DDoS protection?

Yes. All five providers in this ranking list DDoS protection. They also list 24/7 availability, but those features do not mean the same thing: protection concerns attacks against a server, while availability describes when the provider can be reached or the service is offered. Check each host’s terms for details that matter to your setup.

Which host offers a free trial?

Server.pro lists a free trial. The other four providers do not list one in the features considered here. A trial can help you inspect the control panel and management options before subscribing, but it does not replace checking the plan’s RAM, storage, location and game support against what your group needs.
