Greater Zurich Area, Switzerland – March 21, 2024 – FunPlus, a leading independent game company, has announced exclusively at Future Games Show 2024 its latest gaming venture, Foundation: Galactic Frontier. The result of FunPlus’ close collaboration with Skydance, this next-generation sci-fi game represents the ultimate game adaptation of Isaac Asimov’s iconic, Hugo Award-winning Foundation series, set within the universe of the Emmy®-nominated series from Skydance Television, now streaming on Apple TV+.

 

Foundation: Galactic Frontier will feature epic space battles within an immersive narrative experience, resembling an exciting cinematic experience with the support of seasoned science fiction authors and game designers from other franchises such as Fallout, Stargate, Star Atlas, and Star Wars. In Foundation: Galactic Frontier, players will take on the role of a trader navigating through multiple space forces, while also serving as a captain to recruit and train their crew and fleet, explore locations, and conquer challenges across the vast galaxy. The game promises to deliver an approachable entry to the beloved sci-fi saga and a fresh and exhilarating space adventure like no other, for both newcomers and long-time fans of the Foundation series.
