Our massive Easter Event is fast approaching! This year, Captains will blast off on a quirky colonization adventure with Leon Mars and his Space Eggs engineers!

Unfortunately (due to human-bunny translation errors), it seems the engineers will be helping you to craft a Crew instead of crewing a Craft…

Keep an eye on our Social Media pages to make sure you don’t miss an Eggstra-Planetary Easter!

[h2]Hi Captains![/h2]

Our latest patch included some new content that would not be available until after the Tournament Finals. With the finals for February coming to a close, it’s time to cover the new changes!

• New Defense Platform rooms have been added: The Avenger Defense System and Seeker Defense System! AA Room Stats have been updated, proceeding as the third Loadout option.

• Shield Generator and Shield Battery Room Stats have been updated. In most cases, Reload Time has been reduced; while Charges of Shield restored per cast has been increased.

• Hangar reload times have been halved at higher levels. This change has expanded playstyle options when assigning Pilot Crew, while requiring a meaningful response in Defensive/Offensive AI setups.

• 2021 Tournament Chest Armor variants have had their Stat Bonus adjusted. Stat progression for these items now accurately reflects the effort associated with Tournament Equipment.

While only a short list, we plan to monitor these changes thoroughly for their potential effect on other areas of gameplay.

In the meantime, keep an eye out for our next Blueprint announcement, the upcoming Easter Event, and our plans for the largest content update of 2021!

Good Hunting, Captains.

We are also taking the time to go back through all previous Individual Pins to include the year they were rewarded. We will have more information on this soon, alongside balance changes ahead of Finals Week.



To commemorate the events of the past year, we have designed an all-new Masked Pinkzilla Pixel Tee! These will be rewarded to the Top Fleet and Top 100 players for 2020, listed above.



2020 may have had its faults – but it has been amazing watching Fleets and Captains face each other, refining old and new strategies under an evolving meta throughout the year.

Thank you to everyone that participated!


But enough of that – it’s time to show off some of the amazing things we have planned for 2021!

With January already well underway, let’s start with the new Tournament Equipment designs. This year, all Tournament equipment will feature Weapon(WPN) values as their Primary Stat, valued by Rarity tier.



January’s Tournament reward is a hot take on the Security Gate Room - keep an eye on the Announcements for a sneak peek at the new visuals! Security Gates will also be seeing balance adjustments, to be detailed in the upcoming patch notes.


We will publish the latest Patch Notes once we've completed some additional testing. This update includes a number of bug fixes, optimizations and logic changes to improve performance. Notably, issues with boxes/crates will be resolved for all platforms.

There is a lot to discuss for 2021, with more new features planned than any previous year. We will be posting the next Galaxy Community Update soon to touch on some of the new features (and the revamped existing features) we have in store.


As we enter into the 2021 Tournament Season, we would like to wish all Captains good luck, and good hunting!
