How to Set Up a Killing Floor 2 Server

Killing Floor 2 is the visceral co-op horde shooter of Zeds, perks and gore. A dedicated server with Steam Workshop maps and mutators keeps your six-player co-op or Versus online. This step-by-step guide shows you how to set up a Killing Floor 2 server in minutes — no manual install, no command line.

What you need

• A Killing Floor 2 plan with around 2–4 GB of RAM — Killing Floor 2 is a Medium-class game.
• Support for Steam Workshop maps and mutators, included on every GGameHost Killing Floor 2 plan.
• Your friends or community to play with (up to 6 (co-op)).

Step 1 — Choose your plan

Pick a plan sized for your Killing Floor 2 community. We recommend about 2–4 GB of RAM; start smaller and upgrade in one click as you add players or mods. Killing Floor 2 plans start at $10.99/mo.

Step 2 — Deploy your server

Check out and your Killing Floor 2 server provisions automatically in under 60 seconds, with console access right away — no manual install, no command line.

Step 3 — Connect & invite players

Once your Killing Floor 2 server is online, copy its address (IP and port) from the panel. Your players open Multiplayer and use Direct Connect with the address and port. Start, stop and restart it anytime from the control panel.

Step 4 — Install mods & configure

Your Killing Floor 2 server supports Steam Workshop, Custom maps, Mutators, FTP/SFTP. Install Steam Workshop maps and mutators straight from the one-click installer, or upload your own from the control panel — then tweak settings in the visual config editor.

Step 5 — Keep it running smoothly

Enable scheduled automatic backups, set restart timers, and monitor CPU, RAM and player counts from the dashboard. Always-on DDoS protection and 24/7 support keep your Killing Floor 2 server stable.
