Right now,

We have an official server in North America (unvanquished.net).

We have an official server in Europe (gg.illwieckz.net).

We have various featured servers in Europe hosted by team members (like Sweet and Kai's ones) among other maintained ones in Europe (like the ones hosted by freem, including the one operated by Grise, the one hosted by Gireen, etc.)

We have one maintained server around Australia (Rakka Takka) but we have no contact with the operator, we better want to build-up some relation, especially to coordinate updates on release.

We have no server in Africa. North African players can play on European servers, but other countries will have high ping.

We have no server in Continental Asia. Without intention to hurt anyone people, we may consider Japan as part of Continental Asia in the way we may assume Japan is close enough to the continent to have low-enough ping when crossing the sea, same for Taiwan. Meaning a server in Japan may be usable by Korean and Taiwanese people, and a server in China may be usable by Japan and Vietnamese people, to give some example.

We have no server close to the East of the Mediterranean sea (Türkiye, Iran, Saudi Arabia).

We have no server close to India.

We have no server close to parts of Russia that are not close to Europe.

We have no server in South America, though our download statistics on SourceForge shows we have many downloads from there, and from time to time we have reports of issues affecting LAN players from people living in South America and hosting LAN only games (so, we may have an invisible community there).

As of today, there seems to be a server in China.

Yeah that’s from my community.

Though I’m not able to test it from worldwide locations, and I’m expecting there are almost no players play on it sooner.
