Rent an Eco Server or Host It Yourself?
You can run Eco yourself. Here's what that actually looks like next to a rented server.
About Eco
Eco is a multiplayer world-building game from Strange Loop Games. Players build a civilisation together, with a real economy, elected governments and laws, and research to stop a meteor, all without wrecking the ecosystem they depend on.
It has been in Early Access on Steam since 6 February 2018 and is updated through the year: Update 14.1 in September 2026 improved storage management, and Update 14.2 on 8 October 2026 added economic statistics and better stores. Every server runs its own cycle, from a short meteor countdown to a world that lasts months.
Because an Eco world only moves forward when the server is running, a rented Eco dedicated server is the normal way to play with a community: it keeps the economy, government and ecosystem going around the clock, with nightly backups.

Have been using PingPerfect for a few years now for Games, like 7DTD, Ark, and Conan, and love that they allow us to easily convent any of our servers to anther game with just an email and a short time they have it up and running. We would not use any other service as we have before and did not have the service PingPerfect offers, and tech support is very fast and getting back no matter what time of day or night.
I have been in touch with this company on numerous times and I have to be honest with you, they are very professional and very helpful, I would recommend this company to anybody who think about running their own server, as I've been with this company now approximately four years, the fast response to your concerns are extremely Extremely our great response time from the team,

Eco Server Hosting FAQ
How do I choose an Eco server host?▾
Check a few things: enough RAM for your world size and player count, full access to the .eco config files, mod support, the option to restore older backups, a location near your players, DDoS mitigation and automatic backups. A free trial lets you test the connection before you pay. Our servers have all of these, with 20 locations and a 48-hour free trial.
How much RAM does an Eco server need?▾
Eco's RAM use grows with the world size, the number of citizens and how far the cycle has gone. Our 10-player plan has 9 GB; the 50 and 75-player plans have 12 GB. If you generate a bigger world, make sure it fits in your RAM, and use the clean-up commands in our RAM guide on long cycles.
Why do I need a play.eco account on my server?▾
Since Update 11, online features such as the server list and coins need the server to log in with a play.eco account that owns the game. Our online mode guide shows where to add it. Without one, run the server in offline mode, and players set their game to offline mode too.
How do I install mods?▾
Download the latest release of the mod from mod.io and upload it to the server's Mods folder by FTP, then restart. The Discord Link mod installs from the Mod Manager. See our mods guide and Discord Link guide.
How do I start a new world?▾
Stop the server, press Wipe Save Data in the Gamepanel and start it again. If you change the world generator settings first, keep the world small enough for your RAM. See our new world guide.
Why can't players see my server in the list?▾
Open Network.eco in the config editor, tick "Server visible in server list?", save and restart. Online mode also needs your play.eco account added. Our server list guide has the details.
How many players can join?▾
Our plans come with 10, 50 or 75 slots, and the Custom plan offers 25 or 100. Set the max slots in Network.eco to match, as in our slots guide.
How much does an Eco server cost?▾
Plans start from $13.34/month for 10 players. For 50 players it's $34.14/month with 12 GB of RAM and NVMe Pro storage, or $37.83/month for 75 players. Every plan is also available on our Extreme hardware, and all of them come with a 48-hour free trial.
