What is Empyrion: Galactic Survival?
Running your own Empyrion dedicated server gives you complete control. Host a private co-op galaxy, a public PvE/PvP server, or a full modded scenario setup for up to 32 players. Our infrastructure is tuned for Empyrion with high-clock CPUs, NVMe storage, and enterprise-grade DDoS protection - critical because Empyrion's server holds a live instance of every playfield players visit and eats RAM as your galaxy grows.
INSTANT SETUP
Get your Empyrion: Galactic Survival server online in minutes with our streamlined deployment process. No technical expertise required - choose your plan and we'll automatically configure your galaxy. Your crew can start building immediately.
Our automated system handles everything from SteamCMD provisioning to port configuration, playfield allocation, and network hooks. Whether you're running a small co-op galaxy or a full 32-slot Reforged Eden server, your Empyrion server will be ready in under 10 minutes.
AUTOMATIC BACKUPS
Protect your Empyrion galaxy with our automatic backup system. Your save data, player blueprints, faction state, playfield instances, scenario configuration, and mod setup are regularly backed up so a crash, corruption, or bad update never costs your crew their empire.
Restoring a backup is just a click away. Select the snapshot you want from the control panel and roll back instantly - critical for a game where a single bad restart can wipe hours of building.
DDOS PROTECTION
Keep your Empyrion server safe from attacks and unauthorized access. We've built enterprise-grade security into every plan so your persistent galaxy stays online, even when bad actors try to bring the server down mid-raid.
Our infrastructure includes advanced DDoS protection on all plans, capable of absorbing high-volume attacks without affecting in-game performance. Your crew focuses on the build, not on downtime.
FULL FILE ACCESS & SCENARIO SUPPORT
Take complete control of your Empyrion server with full SFTP access and a powerful in-browser control panel. Install Reforged Eden, Project Eden, HWS, Star Salvage, or any custom scenario, edit your dedicated.yaml and gameoptions.yaml, drop in custom blueprints, and fine-tune every setting without restrictions.
Whether you're running vanilla PvE, hardcore PvP, or a full modded scenario, our 24/7 support team can help with scenario setup, playfield tuning, and performance optimization.

Best Empyrion: Galactic Survival server hosting
Colonise planets, forge capital vessels block by block, and keep an entire solar system alive with an Empyrion dedicated server. Whether you want a private co-op galaxy or a public scenario server, hosting your own instance lets you host an Empyrion server with friends that stays online whether you're logged in or not. Empyrion: Galactic Survival server hosting with Wabbanode is tuned for the game's playfield-heavy architecture.
What your Empyrion server needs
Empyrion is unusually RAM-hungry because the server keeps a live instance of every playfield players visit. For an 8-player co-op galaxy budget around 8GB of RAM, a 16-slot PvE server around 12GB, and a busy 32-player or modded-scenario galaxy 16GB or more. High-clock CPUs handle the physics and structural calculations best, and NVMe storage keeps playfield loading fast as your saved galaxy grows across dozens of sectors.
Scenarios, mods, and blueprints
Full SFTP access lets you install Reforged Eden, Project Eden, HWS, or Star Salvage, edit dedicated.yaml and gameoptions.yaml, and drop in custom blueprints — everything you need for how to host an Empyrion server running vanilla PvE, hardcore PvP, or a total-conversion scenario.
The Wabbanode edge
High-clock AMD Ryzen 9 CPUs, NVMe storage, always-on DDoS protection, free automatic backups, and instant setup, backed by a 24/7 team that knows Empyrion scenarios inside out.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our game server hosting. Can't find what you're looking for? Contact our support team.
How do I set up my Empyrion: Galactic Survival server?
Setting up your Empyrion: Galactic Survival dedicated server is quick and easy. After selecting your plan, our automated system provisions the Empyrion dedicated server via SteamCMD in minutes. Share the connection details with your crew and jump straight into your galaxy - no manual SteamCMD, no manual port forwarding.
Which Empyrion hosting plan should I choose?
We offer three Empyrion hosting plans built around the game's real RAM footprint. Our 8 GB plan supports up to 8 players - perfect for a friends-only co-op galaxy. Our 12 GB plan (recommended) supports up to 16 players and is the sweet spot for medium communities running scenarios like Reforged Eden or Project Eden. Our 16 GB plan supports up to 32 players for large PvE or PvP communities with heavy scenario setups. Every plan includes DDoS protection, automatic backups, and 24/7 support.
How much RAM does an Empyrion server need?
Empyrion is notably RAM-heavy. The dedicated server holds a live instance of every playfield players visit (roughly 1 GB per playfield) and each active player uses 1-3 GB on top of that (averaging around 1.5 GB). We enforce an 8 GB floor because anything below is unusable, 12 GB is the sweet spot for a 16-player community running Reforged Eden or Project Eden (our recommended pick), and 16 GB gives 32-player servers plenty of headroom for busy multi-playfield exploration and heavy scenarios.
What is a playfield, and does exploration affect server RAM?
A playfield is a single world instance in Empyrion - a planet, moon, orbital sector, or asteroid field. When any player visits a playfield, the server loads it into memory and holds it there (typically about 1 GB per active playfield). The more places your crew explores, the more RAM the server uses. That's why we recommend a plan with headroom rather than the absolute minimum - your galaxy grows as your crew explores.
Can I run Reforged Eden, Project Eden, HWS, or Star Salvage scenarios?
Yes - our Empyrion hosting has full support for every popular community scenario, including Reforged Eden, Project Eden, HWS, and Star Salvage. Install any scenario through our control panel or full SFTP access, edit dedicated.yaml and gameoptions.yaml directly, and tune settings without restrictions. Our support team can help with scenario setup and playfield configuration.
How many players can join an Empyrion server?
Our plans support 8, 16, or 32 concurrent players. Empyrion can technically scale beyond that with enough RAM (100 players needs 128 GB+), but 32 is the practical hosting sweet spot for well-tuned community servers. Plans are upgradeable at any time with zero downtime.
Can I install mods and custom blueprints?
Absolutely. Upload custom blueprints, install client-and-server mods via SFTP or the in-browser file manager, and manage load order without restrictions. Community scenarios like Reforged Eden ship with hundreds of custom blueprints and lore, all supported by our hosting.
Can I upgrade my Empyrion plan later?
Absolutely. You can upgrade or downgrade your Empyrion server plan at any time with zero downtime. Upgrades take effect immediately and any billing differences are prorated so you only pay for what you use - which matters for Empyrion where RAM needs grow as your crew explores more playfields.
Do you offer DDoS protection?
Yes - every Empyrion server includes enterprise-grade DDoS protection at no extra cost. Our network filters malicious traffic automatically so your persistent galaxy stays online.
What is your refund policy?
We offer a 7-day money-back guarantee on all Empyrion hosting plans. If you're not completely satisfied with your server, request a full refund within the first week - no questions asked.
