Planetaries invites players to explore a vast sci-fi universe where humanity has expanded beyond Earth. Planned for a Steam Early Access launch in August 2024, this open-world survival game promises a blend of crafting, building, trading, and combat.
One of the standout features is the ability to build your own base. You can construct a sturdy bunker for defense, set up a bustling industrial hub, or build a simple shelter for short visits. This decision isn’t just cosmetic, it meaningfully affects your playstyle and available options.
Combat and tower defense elements play a major role. You must protect your Tech Data Beacon from waves of enemies. Or, if you prefer, you can focus on surviving dangerous alien creatures and exploring hazardous zones. For players who enjoy looting, raiding outposts offers valuable rewards.
Resource gathering is another core feature. With advanced tools, you’ll mine rare materials, extract precious crystals, and hunt aliens for useful drops. This not only helps you progress but also unlocks new technologies and crafting options. The game also shines with its multiplayer features, letting you team up with friends or other players for building, exploration, and crafting.
