Brings what grabs you about The Precursors: a sci-fi setting, an open world and good gunplay.

A classic space action game where you fly as a mercenary through the Sirius sector, trading, taking missions and upgrading your ship while a conspiracy unfolds. Accessible dogfighting and a strong sense of freedom between stations and factions define it.

Everspace 2

Sci-fi setting

Everspace 2 is a fast-paced space combat shooter with loot-driven RPG progression. You explore handcrafted star systems full of secrets, fight in dogfights, and build up your ship through loot, mining, and crafting.

Mass Effect: Andromeda

Sci-fi setting

As the Pathfinder, you explore open alien planets on foot with a jetpack and in the Nomad rover, searching for a new home for humanity in an uncharted galaxy. It pairs fast, mobile third-person combat built on freely mixed skill profiles with BioWare's trademark companion relationships.

Starfield

Open world

Bethesda's space RPG lets you roam hundreds of star systems as a custom character, building ships, chasing faction questlines and landing on countless planets. Classic Bethesda freedom meets a grounded NASA-punk look, though the procedural worlds can feel sparse.

Starscape

Shooting and gunplay

An arcade-style space shooter where you play the last pilot of a research station, mining asteroids, salvaging alien tech and customizing your fighters. A modest story and resource management add depth to the dogfighting.

Mass Effect

Strong, story-driven narrative

As Commander Shepard, you lead your Normandy crew across the galaxy chasing a rogue Spectre in a landmark sci-fi RPG built around its dialogue wheel, companion bonds and choices that carry into the sequels. Combat is real-time cover shooting with pausable squad powers.

3089

Open world

3089 is a futuristic action RPG where terrain, enemies, weapons and items are all generated procedurally. You explore an open world that feels different each time while chasing ever better loot and gear.
