Game-Servers becomes Eokko: new name, new address, same servers
The short version: from Thursday, September 17, 2026, Game-Servers is called Eokko and the website moves to eokko.com. Your servers, accounts, prices and connection addresses stay exactly the same. The only thing to do: sign in to the panel once more, at the new address.
Why a new name?
"Game-Servers" said exactly what we do, and that was its only merit. The name is generic, impossible to protect, and the .fr tells a German or Spanish player that we are "a French thing" at the very moment they are deciding whether to trust us with their server. Since the site went live in four languages, that gap has shown up in the numbers every single day.
Eokko is short, pronounced the same way in all four languages, means nothing but us, and is ours: the name is registered and the domains are reserved. It is a name built to last, which "Game-Servers" could never be.
What does not change
- Your game servers: they keep running during the switch, with no restart. Connection addresses on
*.game-servers.frremain valid, your players have nothing to change. - Your account: same login, same password, same Google or Discord sign-in. Your servers, backups and invoices are all still there.
- Your prices and subscription: nothing moves, no new contract, no card to re-enter. Invoices are still issued by Kapsloc, the company behind the service.
- Support: same people, same tickets from the panel, same e-mail addresses.
What changes
- The website and panel address: eokko.com replaces www.game-servers.fr. Every old address, including this blog's articles, redirects automatically to the new one, permanently. Your bookmarks will keep working.
- The name: Eokko everywhere, on the site, in e-mails and on social media. You will still see "formerly game-servers.fr" for a few weeks while everyone gets used to it.
- One sign-in: the panel session is tied to the domain. On Thursday, on your first visit to eokko.com, you will need to sign in once. That is all.
The schedule
The switch happens on Thursday morning, September 17. The website and panel may be unavailable for a few minutes during the operation. Game servers are not involved: they run on separate machines and nobody will be dropped from a game. We will confirm here and on the site banner as soon as everything is in place.
What comes next
A new name is worthless if the service does not follow. The last few weeks have been busy: Steam Workshop mod installation for Project Zomboid straight from the panel, with dependencies and maps handled automatically, support for Valheim 1.0 on release day, and new advanced settings for Astroneer. The next milestone already has a date: Enshrouded 1.0 launches on October 15 and our servers will be ready.
We will also open a community space to talk with you directly. For now, one thing matters: that Thursday goes by without you noticing.
Frequently asked questions
Do my players need to change anything?
No. Your game server address does not change, they connect as usual.
Will my invoice link or an old panel link still work?
Yes. Any game-servers.fr address redirects to its equivalent on eokko.com.
Will I get an e-mail from an unknown address?
Our e-mails keep coming from the usual addresses. A message asking you to "confirm your credentials for the migration" is not from us: we will never ask for your password.
Is this a buyout?
No. Same team, same company, same infrastructure. Only the name changes.
What if something breaks on Thursday?
Open a ticket from the panel or reply to the announcement e-mail, we will be at our desks all day.
Thank you for trusting us from the start. See you Thursday, on eokko.com.
