Starseeker
Starseeker (2026 video game) Early Access Trailer
Cooperative Space Exploration, Built on Familiar Ground
A spin-off of the beloved Astroneer universe, Starseeker is published by Devolver Digital and developed by System Era Softworks. The pairing of a studio known for quiet, curious exploration with a publisher that champions offbeat multiplayer experiences sets an intriguing tone from the start.
Where Astroneer leaned into solitary wonder, Starseeker pivots toward crew dynamics. The ESS Starseeker, a persistent space station shared across sessions, functions as both social hub and operational base, a structural choice that shapes every expedition before it begins.
The Experience
Players join a crew aboard the ESS Starseeker and venture out to explore alien planets, complete large-scale objectives, and gather technology to upgrade their capabilities. The loop is cooperative by design: shared goals, shared resources, shared consequences. Solo play is possible, but the game clearly rewards showing up with others.
As a spin-off set in the Astroneer universe, it stands as a standalone entry. No prior knowledge of Astroneer is required, though the visual language and tone will feel immediately familiar to returning players.
Who Should Play This
Starseeker launches in Early Access on PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2. The game suits players who enjoy cooperative exploration with light progression systems, and those comfortable with the unfinished-but-playable nature of Early Access titles.
