“A fun, stylish and challenging game that has some bugs at the time of playing, but the developer is already working on squashing them. Definitely recommended. ”

About This Game



In Liberation, you pilot an elite stealth ship as you take your revenge against the evil Galactic Federation (GalFed).

"It's a lot of fun and very different to everything else you've played in this genre" - LT Gaming

"Plays smoothly on my Steam Deck too!" - rennihammer

"Fun, stylish and challenging" - SpaceGameJunkie

Upgrade your ship with a variety of weapons and systems. Engage in high-stakes dogfights, dock with space stations and planet spaceports, and work with heroes and villains to destroy GalFed.

Liberation is a lovingly crafted single-player open-universe RPG, inspired by classic science fiction such as Blake's 7 and the original 1984 BBC Micro version of Elite.





In Liberation, there are 20 unique systems to explore, ranging from Khalidir, a desert planet so harsh the residents never leave their domed city, to the Vantis Clouds, a nebula so dense that scanners are useless and hunters become prey.

GalFed is a living, breathing empire where thinking machines are banned, the rich and powerful amuse themselves with political intrigue, and regular citizens are treated like cattle.

It's up to you to lead the rebellion and liberate each system one-by-one.





Liberation is a action space combat sim stripped back to its core. Less trading, tighter combat, more story, and a rich lore-filled universe.

It is a low polygon game powered by the latest engine -- dynamic lighting, volumetric fog, physics and dozens of ships. It authentically captures the feel of a classic space game but modernises where it makes sense. For example Liberation supports not just keyboard but also mouse and gamepads (which suits the steam deck too). DRM free.



We love scifi such as Blake's 7, The Tripods, Space:1999, Star Cops, Judge Dredd and Doctor Who! We wanted to pour all that rich story-telling, satirical humour and awesome but frankly wobbly special effects into one game.
