# Server Regions

> Deploy your game servers across the globe to ensure the lowest latency for your players.

PlayFlow operates a global network of data centers, allowing you to deploy your dedicated servers as close to your players as possible. Choosing the right region is the most effective way to reduce latency and provide a smooth gameplay experience.

The `region` field is **required** when you start a server. You select it when launching a new server via the dashboard or through the [Game Servers API](/unity/game-servers).

## Available Regions
