HumanitZ dedicated hosting for a small friend group (2026)
HumanitZ is Yodubz Games’ isometric open-world zombie survival multiplayer — craft, loot, base, and fight the undead from a top-down view — not the same product page as Project Zomboid, 7 Days to Die, SCUM, or DayZ (different engines, host SKUs, and RAM floors). Shockbyte and Nodecraft sell labeled HumanitZ plans we could read. BisectHosting has a HumanitZ product page but showed out-of-stock / waitlist with no clear plan total. Apex Hosting marketing HumanitZ URLs returned 404 (absent from the /games/ catalog we read). GameTeam and PebbleHost HumanitZ page URLs returned 404. Prices below were read from each host’s own HumanitZ page. Confirm the bill and headroom at checkout.
RAM, slots and mods
- Friend-group fit: A passworded squad night often sits under Shockbyte’s labeled Fire Axe · 8 players · 5 GB entry, or steps to Tactical Shotgun · 16 players · 6 GB if the roster grows. Nodecraft does not limit slots (FAQ pattern) and marks Budget “Not recommended for this game” — Premium from 5 GB · $24.98/mo recurring is the 24/7 line they push. You do not need Shockbyte’s AWM 24-slot box for a Discord of six.
- RAM honesty (host claims only): Shockbyte’s HumanitZ tiers print 5 GB (Fire Axe), 6 GB (Tactical Shotgun), then 7 GB (AWM). Nodecraft Budget/Premium cards list 5 / 8 / 10 GB (5 GB labeled “Minimum Viable”). Bisect’s HumanitZ page we read did not display a clear $/GB rate or plan total (out-of-stock / waitlist; a “5Gb” fragment appeared in markup without a dollar figure). Apex / GameTeam / PebbleHost published no HumanitZ GB floor on a sellable marketing page today. Vanilla friend nights should still budget toward the host’s printed floor and step up if the panel shows memory pressure. Do not reuse Project Zomboid, 7 Days to Die, SCUM or DayZ RAM tables.
- Mods / files (host claims only): Shockbyte claims Full File Access / Easy Configuration / Automatic Backups (no HumanitZ-specific Workshop one-click claim on the page we read). Nodecraft claims integrated file manager + FTP/SFTP (no HumanitZ-specific Workshop one-click claim on the page we read). Bisect’s HumanitZ page we read claimed NVMe, free DDoS, 3-day backups, swap 110+ games, and 21 locations — it did not show a “Full Mod Support” / Workshop line in the markup we read. Apex / GameTeam / PebbleHost not confirmed. See Night 6.
Comparison: HumanitZ plans
Price sources: every price comes from the host’s own HumanitZ page (fetched 24 Oct 2026, NZDT). No third-party or search-summary prices are used. Recurring monthly figures are preferred over first-month sale teasers (sales disclosed where shown). TBD means the host page showed no clear plan total, out-of-stock / waitlist, or the page URLs we tried returned 404. Confirm at checkout.

Oceania note
HumanitZ’s isometric co-op still punishes long routes when the squad fights and loots together. AU/NZ groups should check Nodecraft’s listed Melbourne / Sydney / Auckland nodes on this HumanitZ page, then Shockbyte (Melbourne company; global locations claimed — confirm an AU node at checkout), and Bisect stock (21 locations; out-of-stock / waitlist notice on the page we read). Apex, GameTeam and PebbleHost were not confirmed on a sellable HumanitZ marketing page — Project Zomboid / 7DTD / SCUM / DayZ Oceania notes do not transfer here. See the Oceania ping guide.
Budget note and shortlist (not rankings)
- Labeled under ~$20 recurring: Shockbyte Fire Axe 5 GB / 8 players, $9.99/mo; Tactical Shotgun 6 GB / 16 players, $14.99/mo. Nodecraft Budget from $14.90/mo hibernates and is marked “Not recommended”; Premium entry recurring is $24.98/mo.
- 24/7 Premium: Nodecraft Premium 5 GB, $24.98/mo recurring (first-month sale disclosed separately); step to 8–10 GB if the roster or file load needs headroom.
- If Bisect is out of stock, or Apex/GameTeam/PebbleHost are absent: use Shockbyte or Nodecraft first; home CTAs for Apex / GameTeam / PebbleHost if you want to ask support whether HumanitZ is coming.
- Similar nights: Project Zomboid (Night 13), 7 Days to Die (Night 10), SCUM (Night 53), DayZ (Night 23). Also budget under ~$20 and Oceania ping.
