Starlance Studios and Ironward launched the Early Access of their PC real-time strategy game ZeroSpace on Steam today. Priced at 4,600 yen with a 10% launch discount until August 4, the game features RPG elements such as dialogue-driven story changes and faction politics. The Early Access version includes 13 campaign missions, cooperative play, and a Galactic War mode where player results reshape the galaxy map. The game was developed with input from former StarCraft pros.
ZeroSpace is set in the Orion sector, where alien factions compete for control. The player leads a fleet as a commander, strengthening the mothership and recruiting soldiers and specialists. Beyond combat, the game asks players to make narrative choices through conversations with companions, which alter the political situation and the ending. The Early Access version offers 13 campaign missions, cooperative play with procedurally generated missions, and AI battles with eight difficulty levels. A Galactic War: Season Zero event runs until August 2, where player influence determines control of planets on a faction basis.
