How to Set Up a Empyrion Server

Empyrion··2 min read

Empyrion: Galactic Survival mixes survival, building and space combat across planets and orbit. A dedicated server with scenarios and mods gives your group a whole galaxy to conquer. This step-by-step guide shows you how to set up a Empyrion server in minutes — no manual install, no command line.

What you need

  • A Empyrion plan with around 6–12 GB of RAM — Empyrion is a Heavy-class game.
  • Support for scenarios and mods, included on every GGameHost Empyrion plan.
  • Your friends or community to play with (up to 30 slots).

Step 1 — Choose your plan

Pick a plan sized for your Empyrion community. We recommend about 6–12 GB of RAM; start smaller and upgrade in one click as you add players or mods. Empyrion plans start at $17.99/mo.

Step 2 — Deploy your server

Check out and your Empyrion server provisions automatically in under 60 seconds, with console access right away — no manual install, no command line.

Step 3 — Connect & invite players

Once your Empyrion server is online, share its address (IP and port) with your friends so they can join. Start, stop and restart it anytime from the control panel.

Step 4 — Install mods & configure

Your Empyrion server supports Scenarios, Mods, Config, FTP/SFTP. Install scenarios and mods straight from the one-click installer, or upload your own from the control panel — then tweak settings in the visual config editor.

Step 5 — Keep it running smoothly

Enable scheduled automatic backups, set restart timers, and monitor CPU, RAM and player counts from the dashboard. Always-on DDoS protection and 24/7 support keep your Empyrion server stable.
