Everything your Multi Theft Auto server needs

MTA is light on hardware and heavy on uptime. The server barely touches the CPU; what decides whether players stay is ping, availability and whether an attack can take you off the list.

Multi Theft Auto servers run Lua resources against a database, and the server binary itself is modest — a Linux package you decompress and run. What actually matters for an MTA community is being reachable: a stable low ping for European players, an IP that survives attacks, and a server that keeps announcing itself to the master list.

Every VDS is a KVM virtual machine in Frankfurt with full root access, guaranteed resources and the same multi-Tbps Anti-DDoS network as the rest of ESAGAMES. You run your resources, your database and your website on one machine.

  • Full root access

    Decompress the server package, manage your resources directory, run it under a process manager and update when you choose.

  • Your resources

    Lua gamemodes, maps and scripts — upload them, set the resource list in mtaserver.conf and restart on your own terms.

  • MySQL on the same box

    Accounts, houses, factions and vehicles stay in a database next to the server, so nothing crosses the network.

  • Anti-DDoS included

    The MTA scene attacks itself. Your VDS sits behind multi-Tbps Frankfurt filtering with a dedicated MTA UDP profile.

  • Stays on the list

    With the ASE port open your server keeps announcing itself to the master list, and the filtering keeps it reachable during an attack.

  • Frankfurt latency

    Central-EU routing for stable ping across European and Balkan player bases.

Built for Multi Theft Auto players, not just servers

Hardware, network and protection tuned for game hosting — hosted in one of Europe's best-connected data centres.

  • Multi-Tbps Anti-DDoS

    Your VDS is filtered through our own 13 Tbps+ Frankfurt network — attacks are absorbed before they reach your server. Learn more →

  • Instant activation

    The VDS is provisioned automatically after checkout, so you can log in and start installing within minutes.

  • Low EU latency

    Frankfurt is the heart of European networking. Players across the EU get a stable, low ping for smooth gameplay.

  • Full root, your setup

    A KVM virtual machine you control completely — SteamCMD, mods, scripts and backups, set up the way you want.

  • Ryzen 9 and Xeon Gold

    VDS plans run on Ryzen 9 9950X, Ryzen 9 7950X or Xeon Gold 6230R processors.

  • 24/7 in-house support

    Real people run the network and the VDS platform. We keep the machine online; the game server on it is yours to run.

How to make a Multi Theft Auto server

Four steps from checkout to a live server. You will need a Linux command line — or follow our guide line by line.

  1. Pick a VDS plan

    MTA is light — size for your database and player count rather than raw CPU.

  2. Install the server

    Connect over SSH and decompress the MTA Linux server package.

  3. Add resources and database

    Upload your gamemode and resources, import your database and point mtaserver.conf at it.

  4. Open the ports

    Allow the game port, the HTTP download port and the ASE port, then start the server and announce it.

How much server do you need?

Multi Theft Auto is a top DDoS target — you're covered

Game servers are the #1 target for DDoS attacks. Every ESAGAMES VDS sits behind our multi-Tbps filtering, engineered to absorb modern botnets like AISURU and keep your Multi Theft Auto server online during raids, rivalries and events.

How our protection works

Multi Theft Auto hosting questions, answered

Which ports does an MTA server use?

22003 UDP for player connections and 22005 TCP for the internal HTTP resource download. The ASE port that announces you to the server browser is the game port plus 123 — so 22126 UDP on the defaults.

Why is the ASE port separate?

Because the master list queries it rather than the game port. If it is closed your server runs fine but never appears in the in-game browser, which is the most common reason a new MTA server looks "offline".

How much hardware does MTA need?

Very little by modern standards — Lua resources are light. The entry VDS covers most servers, and the thing that usually grows is the database, not the CPU load.

Do you sell a ready-made MTA game server?

No. You rent a VDS and run the MTA Linux server on it yourself, which gives you control over resources, the database and update timing.

Can I host the website on the same machine?

Yes. The site, the UCP and the database normally share the VDS with the server.

Is it DDoS protected?

Always — multi-Tbps Frankfurt filtering with a dedicated Multi Theft Auto UDP profile.

How much does Multi Theft Auto server hosting cost?

A Multi Theft Auto server runs on one of our Frankfurt VDS plans, which start from €32.00 per month with full root access and Anti-DDoS protection included. Pick the plan by your player count; you can upgrade later.
