VPN for · Gaming
Play without your ISP or your opponents in the way
Hide your real IP from other players, keep your provider from singling out game traffic, and choose the region you connect from — one tap, on every device.
What actually gets in the way
Three things that slow a session down — and what ForestVPN does about each.
Your ISP can single out game traffic
When everything leaves your device inside one encrypted tunnel, your provider can't tell a game apart from a video call — so it can't selectively slow it during peak hours.
Your IP is visible to other players
In peer-to-peer lobbies your home IP can leak to strangers. Routing through ForestVPN keeps your real address off their radar, so a salty opponent can't target it.
Friends are on a server across the world
Pick the region you connect from and queue on the same matchmaking pool as friends abroad — no console region-switch gymnastics.
With a VPN, and without
The concrete differences on a gaming session — every row is a shipped ForestVPN capability.

I squad up with friends two time zones away and the connection holds all night on my home Wi-Fi. Being able to pick the region is the whole game for us.
