Why choose Proton VPN for gaming?
Using a VPN gives you an extra layer of security when gaming, which is especially useful when connected to public WiFi or live streaming.
Flexible and reliable, Proton VPN lets you choose from a wider range of servers on a game’s network or connect to your games from your usual server whenever you travel.
Global high-speed server network
Speed is everything in gaming. Proton VPN lets you optimize gameplay with 13,000 servers to choose from while our unique VPN Accelerator helps maintain a fast and secure connection.
Unlimited bandwidth and data
We don't impose any bandwidth or data limits. So you can enjoy the seamless gaming experience without interruptions or throttling imposed by your internet service provider (ISP).

Whether you're competing in high-stakes multiplayer matches or exploring virtual worlds, Proton VPN helps reduce ping and keep your gameplay smooth and responsive with minimal lag.
Gaming safely with Proton VPN
VPN Accelerator
Enjoy gaming without interruptions with our VPN Accelerator. Improve your VPN speed by up to 400% even if you're connected to a server halfway around the world.
WireGuard®
WireGuard is a lightweight, fast, and secure VPN protocol that gives you exceptional VPN speeds, improved performance, and even extends your battery life compared to other protocols — perfect for when you're gaming from your laptop.
No bandwidth throttling
If you don't use a VPN, your internet service provider (ISP) can see that you're gaming and slow down your internet, which is known as throttling. Proton VPN hides your online activity from your ISP, helping you avoid throttling.
Strongest encryption
All your gaming traffic is encrypted with AES-256 or ChaCha20, which are both extremely secure. You can play and stream safely even while connected to public WiFi.
