For traveling through space, you design and build your own spaceship, which can be used and equipped for exploring, fighting or collecting resources, depending on your tasks.
The fighting is not only in space. On the planets, you defend yourself against enemy creatures and other players with freshly researched weapons and special abilities from Alien-Tech
You only have to compete with other players in certain zones, otherwise you build your colonies together with them and face the challenges of the game.
For the Star has been in development for three years, but a release date has not yet been officially announced. The game is set to be released for the PC (Steam) and PlayStation 5, as well as the Xbox Series X & S.
