Hello Spacers,

We will be bringing the Space Junkies non-VR open beta to a close on Wednesday August 28th at 9am UTC.

While this is the end of our journey in terms of development of the game, the team is proud to have achieved what we set out to do: create a fun and fast-paced competitive FPS in VR.

The game servers will remain open and accessible to players who purchased the VR version of Space Junkies so that Spacers can continue to take on each other in the many community tournaments we've seen since launch.

The current plan, however, is to not release the non-VR version of the game.

Be sure to join our official Discord to keep in touch with other Spacers.

Hello Spacers,

Exciting news: Space Junkies’ latest title update is out today on PC and PSVR. With it, Space Junkies Episode 3 will deliver all new free content just for you!

Take a look at what will be added with this latest update:



The Jail
This new map is geared towards close and medium range, so make sure you know how to use a sword!

Bowminator
This specialty bow weapon allows you to quick-shoot three arrows at once, or keep the string pulled to combine them into one super-powerful shot!

Chivalry
This new mode pits players against each other armed only with a bow, a sword and a shield. Hardcore survival!

3v3
We’ve expanded our lobbies to support up to 6 players! More players means more action, and there will be action aplenty in our new 3v3 modes!

Bots
For players who want to practice before taking on other players, we have added bots. Now you can play full rounds offline against the AI to hone your skills before you take to the online arena!

Skin
You’ll be able to play as a new Squid variant known as “Mental Mollusk”.

We have almost reached the end of our roadmap



But do keep in mind that we have one more thing lined up for the game – we can’t wait for you to see it!

In the meantime, we hope you enjoy today’s new Space Junkies Content! If you’re looking for friends to play with, join our official discord and team up!

Hello everybody,

We have a couple of updates to share with you this week!

First of all, we are fully aware of some server issues that occurred over the weekend. This resulted in a loss of Armoury access on watch, or missing XP points. Rest assured that we have deployed a fix today that should remedy the situation. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

In addition, there will be a Double XP event this weekend. We hope you take the opportunity to gain some extra experience during this event, which will run from Friday, June 21st (12am) to Monday, June 24th (12am - Central European Time)!

We also have a message for you straight from the Space Junkies dev team on the subject of matchmaking:
Dear SJ community
With the arrival of 3 vs 3 in the episode 3 update, as well as BOTs for training later this month, we will run a number of tests the next two weeks to try and improve matchmaking and reduce waiting times for players new and existing.
We would ask that those who are vocal in the community provide us feedback via our discord so we can continue tweaking until the arrival of 3 vs 3.
Regards
Dev team!

Keep an eye out here and on our social media channels for more news in the future.
In the meantime, brace yourselves for Double XP, as well our matchmaking test this weekend!

Thank you for your continued support.

Attention Spacers,

Episode 2 has arrived! Another new and exciting update for you with two new maps and a new game mode, find the full details below:

• New Map : Gunner Station
• New Map : Final Destination
• New Mode : InstaBlast
• Live Update ability on gameplay variables
• 3D Rudder Support

InstaBlast
This new ruthless game mode ups the stakes as each player will spawn as Subaru equipped with a deadly single shot weapon that will defeat your enemies in a single hit! Aim well however, as a missed shot could cost you your life as the weapon needs to be reloaded after each shot.

The mode will be playable in both TDM and FFA and the first team/player to reach 20 kills or the highest score after 5 minutes will win the match.



Share Your Feedback

Your feedback is very important to us as the game continues to grow! You can reach out to us here on the forums or on our community Discord.

That’s all for now! We are very excited to introduce many more features to the game and we can’t wait to share more details on our upcoming plans.

Hostile space can be deadly- scout out the battlefield with Sonar before entering the fight!

Sonar highlights the area in front of you and highlights any hidden enemies in your path. This high-tech tool can even identify enemies through walls- no more surprise attacks! The range is not infinite, so be sure to use sonar strategically in between cooldowns.

If your opponent is a strong believer in cloak and saber, make sure you equip the sonar in the armory before your battle! Sonar can be equipped as a shoulder item, which leaves your other shoulder free for medkits or lures.
