Back to back with the exciting announcements this week!

Some of you have already seen and started using this, but for those who have not we are officially excited to announce the new "Games" tab in the PiglinHost control panel!

You can now fully enjoy any supported game that we host from your same service, and you can switch effortlessly via the new Games tab in your control panel! 

Please see the FAQ's below!

How do I swap games?

We would recommend taking a backup of your server prior if you want to keep any files and wiping them just so you're on a clean slate to avoid any file confusion!

Then, simply head to the Games tab and select the game you wish to play!

The panel will then start installing the game - please note some games may take up to 5-10 minutes to install due to the size of the files. Please see the game titles for the recommended minimum amount of RAM needed. 

Once done, head to the Settings tab to enter your settings such as server names, passwords, and Steam authentication keys (Some games require this). We have added descriptions to each setting that you need to enter to help guide you.

Start your server! You should be good to go! We have guides in our FAQ already on how to join each game if you're unsure, and we will be constantly building these articles further.

If you face any issues or would rather our Support do this for you, please reach out via Discord or Support Ticket!

Will you be adding more games?

100% - we are currently testing further games and they will be released as they are ready to use. Please note sadly we will not be able to host Space Engineers anymore, however, any other games mentioned are still in the works. Examples of some games we are currently testing and hope to release soon as possible: DayZ, Dont Starve Together, Enshrouded, Rust, Satisfactory, Sonf of Forest, Starbound, The Forest, Euro & American Truck Sim, and Valheium.

 

Can I request a game?

Of course, if the game you want is not listed above, please reach out to us via Discord or Support ticket.

 

Is my billing still the same?

Yes! There are no changes to your billing or payments at all with this! We will be adding the games to the website as well, however, note we will be selling them based on dedicated memory therefore the pricing will be the same. 

 

How do I get help?

Please contact us via our Discord server ( discord.gg/piglinhost) or via a Support ticket and our team will be happy to help.
