Solar Expanse - New Space Strategy - Steam

[Darknote (OP)]

Hi all,

Found this interesting new game that popped out a few weeks ago.  Devs said that they will release a game play video soon, but otherwise I see no communication from them.

There are very few videos of it on youtube, but hopefully it turns out to be a cool new 4X game.
 
You lead a corporation to mine asteroids or move them closer to planets and hit worlds with it (Like Mars) to bring water and terraform it.  You can colonize Sol and beyond apparently.

Somebody has been watching a lot of The Expanse.

Looks interesting.

The books are good too.

On first glance this seems to be missing the "eXterminate" part of 4x. Or if it does, not through direct combat but through corporate shenanigans.

I think its just a strategic colonization game. Cool regardless. I did wish that the planned release date was actually a date and not "before the mars landing"
