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?

“The game is feature complete, with the exception of PvP combat.
However, we need to fine-tune the balancing, especially in mid and late game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect to complete the game by June 2017.”

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

“The full version will be perfectly balanced and contain exciting arenas for PvP battles. However, there will be further updates and extensions, e.g. new factions and resource types. Discussing those future additions will be an important part of the early access community work.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“With the noted exception of PvP battles, the game is well playable. It even features late game elements like colonizing planets to gain a permanent resource income from shuttles. However, the balancing, especially in mid and late game requires fine-tuning.”

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

“No, the price will remain the same.”

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

“We will actively work alongside the Steam community on the forums where players can leave comments and feedback. While we focus on fine-tuning the balancing, the community might also detect an occasional bug. Furthermore we plan to integrate additional languages, depending on how much the community expresses that desire. It is also an important part of our dialogue with the community to determine the specifics of future additions like new factions and resource types: what is cooler – insect modules or the ethereal faction..? At the same time we will work on integrating the PvP arenas which will definitely be exciting for the community. We plan to open a beta version of these arenas in February or March 2017, probably only for a limited time span in each development cycle.”

About This Game



Space Battle Core - Fight for a new world


The enemy came with lightning and fire and hate; only a few of us could flee, leaving our beloved home behind. Yet even among foreign stars there is hope, there is possibility. But we are not alone. Even fellow humans can become our enemies, and the destroyers of earth never stopped chasing us.

Our only hope now is technology. Only human ingenuity and engineering can give us the edge in these battles to come.

About Space Battle Core
Space Battle Core is a new 4X sci-fi game combining turn based hex combat gameplay with a real-time exploration experience.

After the Earth’s demise, it is your task to recreate and spread human civilization in space. On your mothership, the ark, you construct spaceships from different modules across various factions, each with their own specific traits and abilities. Both the players’ and the enemies’ spaceships can have an almost infinite variety.


The solar systems you encounter are all procedurally generated, no two are the same. Break through their cosmic mist and discover unknown planets, space pirates and alien ships lurking in deep space. Avoid devastating asteroid fields and be careful: overwhelming battle fleets of hostile races may force you to quickly retreat to your ark. You can always navigate to areas with weaker enemies to recover and enjoy the butchering.


Jump from one wormhole to the next in the non-linear universe on your search for new resources and tech. You decide if you want to challenge stronger enemies or farm in easier systems. Expand and enhance your ark, research new technology and eventually find a new home for your people. Be ready to leave the past behind: once you leave a system you can never return. So make sure you have uncovered all riches before you jump out.


Gather resources by mining on the discovered planets on your path. As your ark grows, you will even be able to colonize planets, securing the survival of mankind and providing a continuous stream of valuable resources to your mothership.


Head into battle against four different races (and more coming!) with your modular battleships. Once you encounter an enemy the game enters a turn based hex mode in which you can target and each single shot. It is up to you to disable your enemies’ weapon modules, destroy their engines leaving them drifting helplessly in space, or go straight for the destruction of their hull. Or you can play it smart and lure them into combat amongst each other, watching them destroy themselves and swoop in to pick up the pieces after the battle.


(coming soon)
Feeling too lonely in space? Compete in the optional PvP mode against other players in special battle arenas. Increase your rank and earn valuable resources. If your ship is strongly damaged or even destroyed, it will re-spawn with 80% health at the ark.
