The Ultimate Gaming ISP

The Ultimate Gaming ISP

30 May 2024 | By UrbanX

South African online gamers often face the challenge of high latency when connecting to foreign servers. This can severely impact their gaming experience, especially for fast-paced multiplayer games like Apex: Legends, Fortnite, Overwatch 2, and Call of Duty Warzone, which lack local servers due to a smaller player base in South Africa compared to the global player numbers.

While gaming-optimised virtual private networks (VPNs) like ExitLag and ExpressVPN offer potential solutions by rerouting traffic through optimised paths, they can sometimes introduce additional latency, which is counterproductive to getting the fastest experience.

For South African gamers seeking a more consistent and effective solution, dedicated gaming Internet Service Providers (ISPs) like UrbanX offer significant advantages. Here’s why UrbanX stands out as an ISP for gamers:
