Why Host Your Killing Floor 2 Server on Flux?
A squad that plays every night wants the same server every night: your map cycle, your difficulty, the workshop maps you all downloaded. Hosted from a PC it stops when the host logs off. A dedicated Killing Floor 2 server keeps it there for the whole squad, and the server software is free.
Every plan has dedicated vCores and memory reserved for your server on a decentralized cloud of thousands of independent nodes across 50+ countries. Squad and Squad Plus run the game's 6 players with 4 and 5 GB; Versus has 8 GB and 4 cores for Versus Survival's 12.
The fiddly parts are handled. Every server setting is a field in a form, with the game's own default: mode, difficulty, match length, friendly fire, voting, chat, tick rate. Edit the map cycle and switch the running match to any map, add Steam Workshop maps and mutators by their number, and see who is on with kick and ban one click away. A server behind the game refuses players, so this one checks Steam every 30 minutes and restarts onto a new build as soon as nobody is playing.
One thing to know: Killing Floor 2 stores no saves, so there is no world to lose. A restart ends the wave in progress and nothing more, which is why the daily restart and game updates wait for an empty server.
You still get an ordinary management panel: a file browser, a live terminal and backups of the settings. Plans start at $5.49/month, billing is pay-as-you-go with no contract.

Dedicated Killing Floor 2 hosting from $5.49/month, for a 6-player squad or 12-player Versus, with every server setting in your browser, workshop maps, a live player list and backups on every plan.
Squad
Squad Plus
Versus
We don't sell player slots. The game allows 6 players in Survival, Weekly, Endless and Objective, and 12 in Versus Survival; Max Players starts at the plan's figure and can be set up to that limit on any plan. Squad Plus has the extra core, memory and disk for large workshop maps and mutators.
*The first week is free for customers new to Flux Cloud: one free week per account, not per app or per server. It takes no card and ends on its own after 7 days unless you choose to keep the server. If you've deployed any app on Flux before, standard pricing applies. Our 30-day money-back guarantee covers your first paid month, whether or not you took the free week first.

Every setting, without the files
A Killing Floor 2 server takes its mode, difficulty and first map from its start command and everything else from ini files that the running game rewrites from memory, which is why hand-edits to them vanish. Here the name, the passwords, the mode, the difficulty, the match length, friendly fire, the delays, the votes, the chat and the tick rate are fields with the game's own defaults, checked before they are saved; the server keeps your changes and applies them when it restarts, in under a minute.
Maps and the Workshop
The Maps tab lists the official maps and any workshop maps the server has downloaded. Put them in the cycle, choose the one the server starts on, or press Play now to change the running match. The Workshop tab takes an item's number or its link, checks it exists, and on the next start the server downloads it, loads it and tells your players' games to fetch it.
Players, kicks and bans
The Players & Bans tab lists who is on with their SteamIDs and pings, kicks or bans with a click, and edits the ban list by SteamID or profile link. It talks to the game's own web admin from inside the server, so nothing extra is opened to the internet. It needs the admin password, which the deploy form requires.
Backups and updates
Killing Floor 2 keeps no saves, so what is backed up is your configuration: settings, bans, the map cycle and the workshop list, on start and every six hours, with restore and download. A server running an older build than the game refuses players on the new version, so this one checks Steam every 30 minutes and restarts onto a new build once the server is empty, or within the hour.
