Early Access Announcement

Web Host Simulator · published 2 May 2025, 03:38 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Your first step into the world of Web Host Simulator is coming!
Early Access 0.1 launches on July 11 and you can be among the first to build your hosting empire!

What started as a simple idea (to recreate the experience of building your own hosting company from scratch) has grown into a living, breathing project shaped by passion, hard work, and the incredible support of this community.
Over the next two months, I’ll be fully focused on bringing even more depth and polish to the game: refining every cable you connect, every server you build, every customer you manage. Every piece of Web Host Simulator is being crafted with care to capture the spirit of entrepreneurship, curiosity, and persistence that inspired this journey.
Thank you for being part of this dream. The world of Web Host Simulator is just getting started and I can’t wait to see the amazing stories you’ll create within it!
- Will Medeiros, Founder and Developer of Chibum Ltd.
