Ryzen 9 hardware tuned for SCP:SL's round-based multiplayer and plugin-heavy modded servers. 1-click vanilla and EXILED framework installs, NWAPI support, custom roles + gamemode templates, plugin auto-installer, RCON, and DDoS protection. Deploy a 30-slot SCP:SL server in under 60 seconds.
SCP: Secret Laboratory's round-based netcode is tick-sensitive during containment breaches and big engagements. We've built our stack for communities running EXILED with dozens of custom plugins, NPC bots, and bespoke gamemodes — the kind of server where 30 slots actually fill on a Friday night.
SCP:SL's server loop is single-threaded and latency-sensitive — laggy hosts ruin SCP grabs and pinpoint shots. Ryzen 9 7950X at 5.7 GHz boost keeps tick stability rock-solid even during 30-player containment breaches with heavy plugin loadouts.
EXILED (the community-standard plugin framework for SCP:SL) pre-installed and auto-updated alongside the base server. Custom roles, custom items, bespoke gamemodes, anti-cheat additions, Discord integrations — everything the EXILED plugin library offers drops into Plugins/ and hot-loads on next round.
Northwood API (NWAPI) also pre-installed — the official plugin framework from Northwood Studios. Run NWAPI alongside EXILED (common setup) or standalone for admins who prefer the first-party route. Both plugin formats hot-load from their respective directories.
Launch-ready custom gamemode templates: Tutorial, 035-Mode, SCP-Only, Zombies, Prop Hunt, Last Man Standing, Juggernaut, and the community favorite "Scavengers" all pre-configured. Custom roles via CustomRoles plugin ship with 20+ prebuilt role presets.
1-click install from our curated plugin library: Admin Tools, BetterSCP, MapEditorReborn, RemoteAdmin+, SCPStats, Discord Integration, CustomItems, CustomRoles, PlayerEvents, and 40+ more. Custom plugins drop into Plugins/[EXILED|NW]/ via SFTP.
SCP:SL's built-in RemoteAdmin enabled out of the box with a secure auth key in the panel. Full admin command set — bc, gmod, force, server events, round restarts. Pair with the RemoteAdmin+ plugin for web admin dashboards and Discord slash commands.
Layer 3/4/7 mitigation on every plan. SCP:SL's UDP multiplayer gets targeted occasionally (especially competitive communities and popular streamers' servers) — our filters absorb it at the edge. Your containment breach doesn't get interrupted by a salty banned admin.
Datacenters in New York, LA, Dallas, London, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Warsaw, Singapore, Tokyo, and Sydney. Pick the node closest to your community for tight sync on SCP grabs and pinpoint COM-15 shots.
Live chat, Discord, and tickets — staffed by people who know what config_gameplay.txt, EXILED vs NWAPI plugin conflicts, and "my custom role won't spawn" look like. No first-line script readers asking if you've tried restarting the round.
Four ways to launch your SCP: Secret Laboratory server — from fully managed cloud hosting to a hand-built EXILED-powered community with custom roles, gamemodes, and Discord integrations assembled by our team.

600+ SCP: Secret Laboratory servers running on Fatality. Here's what keeps them here.
30-slot EXILED community server running 24 custom plugins including CustomRoles with 8 custom classes, MapEditorReborn rooms, and SCPStats. Server FPS is rock-solid through full 30-player containment breaches. The 7950X earns its keep during chaotic rounds.
Small friends-only 16-slot server running vanilla + a handful of QOL plugins. Deployed in literally 60 seconds, invited the group, and we were playing D-class escape rounds before I finished the dashboard tour. Rock-solid for 4 months.
Custom "SCP-Only" gamemode server with 12 custom SCPs coded via CustomRoles. EXILED + NWAPI running side by side, dozens of plugins, zero conflicts after the Fatality team helped us sort out the load order. Best SCP:SL hosting experience I've had.
The questions admins actually ask before spinning up a dedicated SCP: Secret Laboratory server.
Both are pre-installed and most admins run them side-by-side. EXILED is the older, more widely supported plugin framework with the largest third-party plugin library — the community default. NWAPI is the official Northwood-built API with first-party updates. Start with EXILED if you want the widest plugin selection; add NWAPI if specific plugins require it. Most custom-role / custom-gamemode plugins target EXILED.
Our plugin library has 1-click installs for Admin Tools, BetterSCP, MapEditorReborn, RemoteAdmin+, SCPStats, CustomItems, CustomRoles, PlayerEvents, EventScheduler, DiscordIntegration, AutoEvent, Scavengers Gamemode, and 40+ more. Drop custom .dll plugins into Plugins/EXILED/ or Plugins/NW/ via SFTP.
Yes. Pre-configured gamemode templates for SCP-Only, Zombies, Tutorial, Prop Hunt, Last Man Standing, Juggernaut, 035-Mode, and the Scavengers gamemode ship as 1-click installs. CustomRoles plugin lets you build completely new role-based gamemodes without touching the source code.
30 is Northwood's default soft cap and what most public servers run. Community plugins can push this higher (40-50 slots) but SCP:SL's gameplay balance starts to fall apart past 30 — SCPs become too easy to mob, chaos vs MTF becomes a deathball. 24-30 is the sweet spot for most admins.
Set ServerList = Private in config_gameplay.txt to hide from the public server browser, and use the IP-based whitelist or a plugin like ReservedSlots for fine-grained access control. Perfect for stream nights, community events, or league matches.
Server verification (via Northwood's server verification system) confirms your server's legitimacy and unlocks full player stats, leaderboards, and the official server browser. Required for public servers. Setup is a one-time process in config_gameplay.txt — we walk you through it in the panel on first launch.
Yes. SCP:SL's built-in RemoteAdmin system is enabled by default with a secure auth key in the panel. Use it for in-game admin, or pair with the RemoteAdmin+ plugin for a web admin dashboard, Discord slash commands, and cross-server player management.
AMD Ryzen 9 7950X at 5.7 GHz boost, DDR5-5200 RAM, Enterprise NVMe Gen 4 SSDs. SCP:SL's server loop is latency-sensitive and mostly single-thread — high clock speed keeps SCP grabs and hit-reg tight at full 30-player capacity with heavy plugin loadouts.
Yes, free on every paid plan. Send us SFTP credentials, we copy your config_gameplay.txt, config_localadmin.txt, Plugins/EXILED/ + configs, Plugins/NW/ + configs, player data, and ban lists. Average migration is 10-20 minutes.
Yes — add additional servers to your account anytime, each with its own port, gamemode, and plugin stack. Common setup for networks: a main public EXILED server + a private custom-role server + a dev/staging server for plugin testing. Shared admin groups via RemoteAdmin's group config.
Start a private lobby for your friend group this afternoon, scale to a 30-slot EXILED community next weekend. Free migration on every paid plan — we'll move your plugins, custom roles, and configs for you.
