Stardust Exile

About

Stardust Exile drops you into a galaxy where real stars and exoplanets mix with algorithmically generated systems. You build bases, manage resources, and command fleets across the Milky Way's known regions, with expansion into the unknown. Combat and strategy take center stage as you balance exploration with defense. Single-player skirmishes let you test tactics, while online play connects you to a shared, ever-running universe. The game’s commitment to real-world astronomy sets it apart. Developer Apseren uses verified celestial data for known systems, creating a large but grounded setting. Launching November 8, 2024, it runs on PC and Linux. The persistent online shard supports co-op and competitive play, with no separate servers to hop between. While early community feedback calls the scale "daunting but rewarding," the blend of science and strategy offers a fresh take on space RTS.
