![]() "Maybe most importantly, colonies are pretty fun to build," Simpson said. In our PC Gaming Show 2023 Preview interview, creative director Nate Simpson described how colony resource extraction and transport can be automated, with orbital colonies interconnected across an interplanetary trade network.Īnd because it's Kerbal Space Program, you'll be designing and building your colony structures. As more resources are transported to-and gathered by-the colony, its population will increase as the colony itself grows, offering more features until eventually they'll offer their own VAB to build new rockets.Īdditionally, orbital colonies will let you construct massive ships free from the restrictions of Kerbin's gravity, which will be a key step in building interstellar craft. By flying colony modules to other planets, players will be able to create habitats that can support a small population of Kerbals. In addition to rockets and spaceplanes, players will be able to construct entire colonies. (Image credit: Private Division) (opens in new tab) Kerbal Space Program 2 will let you build space colonies The interstellar travel will initially be limited to a neighboring star called "Debdeb," with other star systems planned as later additions. Creative director Nate Simpson characterized the process as a mothership concept-building multiple vessels and attaching them to a larger superproject. It'll require building massive starships in orbital drydocks, with the assistance of resources from space colonies (more on that below). ![]() Interstellar travel will involve more than just slapping a bunch of high-tech rocketry onto your shuttles. Intercept Games is incorporating a suite of future-facing speculative propulsion technology that will allow you Kerbals to venture across the void between star systems. With mechanics arriving later in KSP2's early access development, you'll be able to leave the Kerbol System for distant stars with the addition of interstellar travel. In Kerbal Space Program 2, you'll be able to travel even farther into the final frontier.

(ECW Press, 2022 with Canadian astronaut Dave Williams), a book about space medicine. Kerbal Space Program 2 releases in early access today, Feb. Players will learn through animated tutorials, tinker with customizable parts, construct powerful spacecraft, and navigate expansive celestial bodies within a physics-based sandbox." "The game also features enhanced visuals, expanded tutorials, a completely redesigned UI, and numerous other improvements. "Kerbal Space Program 2 offers more than 350 original and improved parts as well as the first of many advanced fuel types: Liquid hydrogen," the developers wrote of the early access version of the game. Kerbal Space Program adds Space Race rockets KSP teams up with ESA for Shared Horizons expansion ![]() ![]() More Kerbal Space Program 2 news from PC Gamer Not all features are available yet in the early access version, but eventually there will be a whole range of new alien planets to explore, better spaceflight technology, parts that can be customized, exploration tools like time warp and "maneuver planners" and an upgraded planetary system that includes clouds, atmosphere and terrain.
