Question

VR Multiplayer in UE5 as a dedicated server possible?

Hello, Is there a possibility to create a VR Multiplayer Game with UE5? I’ve read about creating a dedicated server in a linux container (https://unrealcontainers.com/docs/use-cases/dedicated-servers) or a dedicated server within a Kubernetes Cluster. Would Digital Ocean support that? Good day! :)

Heya,

As mentioned a standard droplet should be capable of hosting the application. Looking at their docs this is what you need:

Hi there,

I just went through the documentation that you’ve shared and I believe that this should totally be possible on a standard Droplet with enough memory.

You can create a server with Docker installed from the Marketplace via this link:

And just use the Dockerfile provider in the documentation.

Good luck with your project!

Best,

Bobby
