Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Space Engineers 2 is a very ambitious game, and we feel that Early Access is a great opportunity to shape its future in cooperation with the community. Player feedback has always been a crucial part of the game development process for us, and Space Engineers 2 is no exception.

In the Early Access version we plan to gradually introduce massive content updates with fresh mechanics. Some of the features will be totally new to players, and their feedback will help us greatly to iterate and deliver the best experience possible. This is why we chose Early Access as the way to go, and hope you will join us on this journey.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Our plan for keeping the Space Engineers 2 in Early Access is approximately three years (end of 2027).”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Just like with Space Engineers, the Early Access version of Space Engineers 2 is only the beginning. We plan to improve and expand it through many content-rich updates and new exciting features, such as a UGC Workshop for sharing creations, advanced modding tools with the VRAGE HUB and Editor, and significant user-experience improvements. We also plan to introduce planets and survival, enhanced progression, and new tools for creative engineering. Volumetric water will revolutionize gameplay through engineering innovation, from crafting deep-sea submarines to designing vast water projects and pioneering ocean exploration. Beyond that, we’re working on multiplayer, NPCs and story campaign.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version is in its Alpha stage, and features Creative Mode with a 25 cm unified grid system, grid undo/redo, new blueprint building, paint tool, powerful building options like symmetry and voxel hand tools, as well as improved performance, realistic destruction, and stunning visuals. Over the coming months, we’ll be rolling out updates with new features and improvements based on our roadmap and community feedback.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to gradually raise the price as we ship new content and features.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“It is extremely important for us to stay in touch with our players, hear their feedback, and learn about their experiences with the game.

We would like to continue a two-way communication with our players and provide them with regular updates on the game development through the Steam page, weekly dev-diary from our CEO, our monthly newsletters, and our official Discord server with team members and moderators always available for discussion. If players encounter any issues in the game, we have a dedicated tech support section on our website where they can report bugs and other technical problems, which will then be forwarded to our development team.

Please don’t hesitate to share your feedback and impressions with us – it will help us tremendously in making Space Engineers 2 a truly special game!”

About Alpha

In the current Alpha version, players can dive into Creative Mode, one of the most loved features, with plenty of space to build, experiment, and bring their ideas to life right from the start. Enjoy a unified 25cm grid system with new blueprint tools like snap-to-grid, paint tool, partial copy/paste, and toolbar assignments and powerful building tools, including the voxel hand, symmetry tools, and line/plane building, along with grid undo/redo for flexibility. The advanced grid system reaches speeds of 300 m/s, with built-in safety features preventing damage under 20 m/s. Dynamic fractures and debris add realistic destruction, while a visual overhaul with ray tracing, global illumination, tessellated terrain, sleek armor edges, and improved lighting pushes the game’s visuals to a whole new level.

The Creative Mode is just the beginning. Over the coming months, we’ll be rolling out exciting content updates, each adding new features and expanding the game, while focusing on improving the core elements. Be sure to check out our roadmap with all the exciting things coming to Space Engineers 2!

Roadmap

  • VS 1.1: UGC Workshop (Mod.io) - Share your creations with other players

  • VS 1.2: Improved mechanics and interface refinements

  • VS 1.5: Modding - VRAGE HUB, VRAGE Editor

  • VS 2: Planets and Survival: Explore planets and our new Almagest System. Utilize new tools like backpack building and projection building, while experiencing improved progression and engaging challenges.

  • VS 3: Water: Planetary-scale volumetric water transforms gameplay. Engineer across oceans, rivers, and lakes. Construct boats and submarines for underwater exploration. 

  • More to Come: We have exciting plans for additional Vertical Slices that will expand upon core mechanics, introduce new features, and ultimately build towards a complete Space Engineers 2 experience. On the horizon: Multiplayer, NPCs, Story Campaign and more.

About This Game

Space Engineers 2 is an open world sandbox game where engineering meets exploration, construction, and survival in the vastness of space. Become a pioneer in the distant Almagest system, a new uncharted world with infinite possibilities for creativity and discovery. Build everything from starships to space stations as you craft your own path in this highly anticipated next chapter of the Space Engineers series!

Creation and destruction never felt this good

Space Engineers 2 takes everything we've learned over the past 10 years and reimagines the space engineering experience with more depth and creative freedom than ever before. Powered by our new VRAGE3 engine, creation and destruction feel better than ever. Whether you're a veteran or new to the game, Space Engineers 2 offers a vast, engaging sandbox where your creativity can truly shine.

Build with great precision

Explore the next generation of construction! Build anything you can imagine with incredible precision using the new 25 cm Unified Grid System. No more large vs small grid - blocks fit seamlessly together, making it easier to create intricate builds. Mounting point visualization and grid lines make building more intuitive than ever.

Enhanced controls and mobility

Our new system includes Grid Undo and refined CTRL controls for precise rotation and zoom, ensuring intuitive design at every step. Take your creations to new speeds with an upgraded max velocity: characters up to 310 m/s and grids up to 300 m/s. And you don’t need to worry about falling off platforms or asteroids — magboots and automatic jetpack activation have got your back!

Smarter UI and smoother play

We redesigned UI/UX to make building smoother and more intuitive for both newcomers and pros, giving more freedom to bring your intricate ideas to life. Thanks to VRAGE3, Space Engineers 2 is set to deliver better performance for a smoother play. As Early Access progresses, you’ll be able to build bigger ships, fly more of them, and enjoy epic destruction in a truly immersive ride.

Next-level visuals

Enjoy the beauty of space, industrial designs and battle encounters, reimagined with next-level realism. In Space Engineers 2 we introduced new ray-traced global illumination, realistic shadows, a new skybox, tessellated voxel materials, parallax effects for armor and much more, to bring depth and realism to every scene.
