Developer Castello announced on June 29 that Moon Crashers will launch on Steam on July 27, with the Japanese release following on July 28 due to time zone differences. The game supports solo play and online co-op for up to four players. Players crash-land on the moon and must gather resources-iron, copper, titanium, and spaceship wreckage-to build a rocket and return to Earth. A 7D printer at base facilities turns collected materials into rocket parts. Vehicles like the MoonBike and MoonScooter help traverse craters and canyons. Low gravity makes both people and vehicles bounce around, causing rollovers and accidental teammate launches. Proximity voice chat is supported. Castello, an Italian indie studio founded by members with no prior game industry experience, previously released VR titles ARK and ADE and Of Lies and Rain. They are also developing Shit Buddies, a co-op action game about dung beetles. A demo with Japanese display support is available now.
