Gaming Experience

Problem: "I’m a gamer and I want to (1) lower lag and ping rates while gaming, (2) protect myself from DDoS (denial of service) attacks, (3) access games/releases not yet available in my country."

How Proton VPN solves it:

  • Simply connect to your chosen server to avoid busy hosts with high latency and enjoy a smoother gaming experience with less lag.

  • Connecting to a VPN server also means that if an angry rival runs a DDoS attack on you, your personal IP address won’t be attacked (with the attack being redirected to Proton VPN instead, which has robust measures in place to overcome these attacks).

  • Connect to any server in the country where your game of choice is already available (but respect all the games rules / T&C).

  • You’ll also be able to unlock collectibles available only in certain countries.

Key Features:

  • 12,000+ servers in 117 countries to choose from. Our wide + robust infrastructure also means that we can provide better ping than competitor VPNs.

  • Proton VPN has a high-speed server network offering connection speeds of up to 10 Gbps, and VPN Accelerator, a proprietary technology that improves VPN connection stability and can increase VPN speeds by up to 400%.

  • Some online games use P2P protocols. Using our P2P-optimized servers will further enhance connection and reduce ping.

  • Create gaming profiles so you can quickly connect to your favorite servers in a single tap/click (profiles allow you to customize connection settings, eg, choosing a specific country or server to connect to, the VPN connection type, protocol used, etc).
