ABOUT SHOCKBYTE

Our journey began in 2013 when our founder, Mitch Smith, owned one of the largest Minecraft networks at the time. With the growth of the network, our infrastructure expanded and we started offering Minecraft server hosting. Today, we are the largest game server host in the Asia-Pacific region and offer support for an ever-growing list of games, including ARK, Rust, Valheim and more.

Our mission is to make it easy and affordable for anyone to operate any kind of internet service at any scale. For this, our primary focus currently lies in extending and developing technologies to make running online services easier.
