BORDEAUX, France – Dec. 5, 2024 – Developer Shiro Games, best-known for its projects that have sold more than 1 million units each including Northgard, Dune: Spice Wars, Wartales, revealed its next title today at the PC Gaming Show. SpaceCraft is a massively multiplayer management and crafting adventure that will welcome interstellar explorers to carve out a place among the stars on PC via Steam in 2025.
A devastating century-long war against the reawakened Tripods, terrifying ancient and autonomous machines, has pushed mankind to the brink of extinction. In a desperate act of hope and survival, all remaining survivors fled through a mysterious portal to a distant, uncharted galaxy.
Connections will be the key to success in the new world. Join political, military, financial, or other formidable factions to gain distinct advantages and attributes. Take on challenging missions and contribute to the ever-evolving economic marketplace. Conduct trade as a solo merchant, or team up with other survivors and form powerful clans called Corpos to pool resources and gain leverage.
Construct and design a foundational headquarters on a planet or in orbit complete with housing modules, energy stations, data centers, and much more for the journey ahead. Explore humanity’s new frontier, expanding the base of operations by discovering raw resources and building extraction and automation machinery to create advanced new structures.
“We wanted to give players a spectacular open-ended world to explore, where their decisions have an impact and they have full freedom to choose their own destiny,” said Nicolas Cannasse, CEO of Shiro Games. “Build complex starships and bases, conduct trade deals in a real-time economy, and form alliances and rivalries at your discretion. From the time you start the game, SpaceCraft is your story to tell. ”
SpaceCraft is set to launch on PC via Steam. For more information, head to the Steam page and be sure to follow SpaceCraft and Shiro Games on X/Twitter.
