Our review

Analysis written by Valentin for Minecraft Hosts from the plans and information published by RocketNode, checked on September 25, 2026. This is not a hands-on test.

Verdict

RocketNode offers two ranges priced in US dollars: Budget, very affordable (8 GB for $13, about $1.63 per GB, $9.75 with the code FALL26), and Premium on a Ryzen 9 7900 or equivalent with DDR5 and NVMe. Backups (3 days) are included, a Paris location is offered and the Trustpilot rating is good (4.5/5 from 2,632 reviews). The processors are only advertised as "or equivalent", and refunds for Minecraft are at the host's discretion.

Pros

  • Very affordable Budget range (24 GB for $26)
  • 9 locations, including Paris
  • Backups included (3 days)
  • Modpack and version installer
  • Good Trustpilot rating (4.5/5 from 2,632 reviews)

Limitations

  • Processors "or equivalent", not guaranteed
  • Discretionary refunds for Minecraft
  • Prices in dollars
  • Bedrock and player limit not specified
  • Duration of the FALL26 code not stated

Best for

  • Small budgets: Budget range from $3.25 (2 GB), 24 GB for $26
  • Those who want a server in Paris, among 9 locations
  • Modded servers: version and modpack installer, backups included

Less suited if

  • You want a guaranteed processor: models are advertised as "or equivalent"
  • You want a money-back guarantee: refunds are discretionary for Minecraft
  • You prefer to pay in euros: prices are in dollars

Pricing and billing

Budget range: from Starter (2 GB) at $3.25 to Premier (24 GB) at $26 per month, or about $1.63 per GB for Platinum (8 GB, $13) and $1.08 for Premier. Premium range: from $4.15 (2 GB) to $68.75 (32 GB, God), about $2.94 per GB for Platinum. The code FALL26, shown as applied automatically, takes 25% off (for example $9.75 instead of $13 for Budget Platinum), with no stated duration. Prices in dollars, VAT not specified.

Performance

The Budget range uses "Dual Xeon E5-2698v4 or equivalent" with DDR4 and SSD in RAID, the Premium range "AMD Ryzen 9 7900 or equivalent" with DDR5 and NVMe in RAID 1. The "or equivalent" wording does not guarantee the model, so no score is used. Plans range from 2 to 5 vCPUs depending on size, with 75 to 350 GB of storage.

Minecraft features

All plans include a version and modpack installer, a properties editor, a reverse proxy, 5 databases and the Apollo panel. Three backup slots (3 days of history) are included, up to 10 as an option. DDoS protection depends on the location (CosmicGuard, Cloudflare Magic Transit, NeoProtect, OVH…). Bedrock support and the player limit are not specified.

Support and guarantees

Support is advertised as 24/7, and help with transferring from another host is offered at checkout. For Minecraft, refunds are at RocketNode's discretion and limited to documented, unresolved technical issues, as the guaranteed 48-hour refund excludes Minecraft. The operator is Sparked Host LLC, in Utah (United States).
