Free Network Bandwidth Amazon GameLift Servers is Here!

Starting today, Amazon GameLift Servers provides network bandwidth in and out of AWS at no additional charge for all instance types from generation 6 and later, including On-Demand and Spot, with no commitment required. You now pay only for your Amazon GameLift Servers instance hours; all network bandwidth is free.

Multiplayer game servers generate continuous network traffic to connected players, making bandwidth one of the most unpredictable cost components for game studio customers. With free network bandwidth included, Amazon GameLift Servers eliminates this cost, giving you the simplicity of bare-metal hosting with the global reach of AWS.

Free network bandwidth applies with no enrollment, pricing agreement, or configuration change required. Existing customers on eligible fleets receive the benefit immediately. It is now available in all Amazon GameLift Servers supported regions, except China.
