SPACEBASE STARTOPIA PREPARES FOR LAUNCH WITH ILLUMINATING ‘BEGINNER’S GUIDE’ TRAILER

Ectotherms and cat cafés spark joy in space sim’s final pre-launch trailer

Bracknell, UK – (18th March, 2021) – Upcoming space station management sim Spacebase Startopia is braced and set for launch next week, 26th March, on Windows-PC/Linux/Mac, PlayStation 4|5, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One consoles. The Nintendo Switch™ version will follow later in the year.

Direct from mission control, Kalypso Media and Realmforge Studios have today released a brand-new Beginner’s Guide video giving an overview of the base and showing an assortment of activities in which alien visitors can participate once they’re aboard, including an all-night-all-day disco, space whale therapy, and a loot box lottery where willing participants can swap their hard-earned space bucks for a quick spike of dopamine and the chance to win a new hat.

Alongside hordes of rambunctious alien tourists and one totally-not-homicidal AI, Spacebase Startopia is also home to another more recent infestation: rumours. In the base’s on-board cat cafés, outlandish feline-based hearsay has run rampant, spurred on by a recent report investigating the phenomena.

Spacebase Startopia launches on the 26th of March. Budding Commanders can pre-purchase the game now from the Microsoft Store, Steam and the Kalypso Store to receive 10% off and immediate access to the beta and Game Preview. PlayStation 4|5 owners can pre-order now via the PlayStation Store.
