The minimum and the suggestion
- RAM: 8 GB at minimum; 16 GB is suggested for large saves or more than four players.
- CPU: an x86-64 processor with strong single-thread performance (the community wiki asks for a single-thread rating of 2000 or more), so per-core speed matters.
- OS: 64-bit Windows or Linux. There is no ARM build.
- Storage: the install is about 8 GB on Linux, plus room for saves and backups.
Hardware by plan
| Plan | CPU | RAM | Storage | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Satisfactory 8GB (~4 players) | 2 vCores | 8 GB | 60 GB SSD | $4.99/mo |
| Satisfactory 12GB (~8 players) | 4 vCores | 12 GB | 80 GB SSD | $8.49/mo |
| Satisfactory 16GB (~16 players) | 6 vCores | 16 GB | 90 GB SSD | $11.49/mo |
Tip:The player figures are sizing guidance for each plan's CPU and memory, not a limit we enforce. How many players can join is the server's own player limit, which is 128 on every plan.
Ports
- 7777 over TCP and UDP: game traffic and the server's HTTPS API.
- 8888 over TCP: reliable messaging, added in update 1.1.
The game does not support redirecting its standard port, so the outside number must match the inside one. On Flux, the ports are opened and routed for you, and the address and port to connect to are shown in the dashboard.
