Space Engineers 2 News

Space Engineers 2 whooshes out of the airlock and into the cold dark void of early access

Look up, planet-lubber. Space Engineers 2 launches into the starry depths of early access today, although it is currently limited to a single player creative mode. It's the sequel to the sci-fi shipbuilding game we quite enjoyed here at RPS. At this early alpha stage, the not-yet-a-survival-game invites players to create galleons of the galaxy, block by shiny metal block, and then drive those ships into one another at 300 metres per second.

Space Engineers 2 alpha is a first taste of the long-awaited sandbox game sequel

Space Engineers 2 is certainly an exciting prospect. It's been more than a decade since its predecessor first landed in early access, and now, more than six years since the full launch, it boasts a strong 89% Steam review score from almost 100,000 user ratings. Developer Keen Software House has decided that the time is right for a refresh, using all the knowledge it's gained to reimagine its beloved space sandbox game from the ground up. After much teasing, the first alpha version is finally upon us, giving you access to its initial creative mode with plenty of toys to start, and many more on the horizon.
