New Worlds

Navigate gravity to settle the Last Great Frontier!

Early Access: Buy Now and get a Steam key when New Worlds 1.0 launches!

You start with a single ship, the Lodestar, in the Solus system. Every star, planet and moon affects your path through the cold expanse. Short on time? Blast directly to your target. Short on cash? Caress your orbit to reach the next moon with a fraction of the fuel. Haul cargo and passengers, trade between markets, grow your fleet, start a space empire, and turn uncharted planets into New Worlds!

Features

• Multi-body Newtonian gravity: plan your burns, tweak your trajectory, get captured by moons, and slingshot past gas giants
• Trade: stations and worlds are marketplaces in a living economy where rival powers expand with or without you
• Missions: transport cargo and passengers to earn and spend on ship upgrades, station construction, settlements, buildings and infrastructure
• Build a fleet: own and operate multiple scouts, freighters, starliners, carriers, colony ships and drones
• Factions: join a faction or start your own, and join the unfolding game of politics and diplomacy in the scramble to claim territory
• Settle and develop New Worlds: from the first outpost to thriving megacities
• Terraforming: make hostile worlds habitable
• 3 star systems with 38 worlds to explore
• Multiplayer: fly together with friends
• Original soundtrack: 19 themed tracks, free to download and use, with credit
