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. Update: The name of the game's producer has been updated.Kerbal Space Program 2 will feature interstellar travel "Getting to the moon in Kerbal is one of the greatest feelings in gaming." "Playing this game shows people what a great achievement it was to put a man on the moon," said Palacios. "But he's comfortable with the joypad and playing on the big screen in his living space."Īs you can see from the video, there are many considerations in play for would-be astronauts, ranging from orbital physics to manning spacecraft. "My father does not like to play with the WASD keys and mouse," he said. Palacios said that moving to consoles will open up KSP to new players. Some of the top mods are brought into the full game by Squad and will be made available to console players. Kerbal Space Program has a highly active community and a big modding scene. The console versions will cost $40, the same as the Steam version. "Apart from a few days delay for console update certification, we will always have parity," said producer Jose Luis Palacios.
Players can try different modes which focus on either simple Lego-style construction of spacecraft through to a full simulation of a space program, starting with little more than a shed.Īccording to Mexico City-based publisher Squad, the console and PC versions will be the same as one another, once the console versions arrive some time in the next few months. The home planet of Kerbal is loosely based on Earth, as is its surrounding solar system. It's a game of discovery in which players piece together all manner of spacecraft and send them out into the universe. Kerbal Space Program is a simulation that includes engineering, logistics, physics and exploration.
