Kerbal Space Program 2

Star Theory Games and Private Division announced that Kerbal Space Program 2 is in development and coming to PC via Steam in Spring 2020. A PlayStation 4 and Xbox One release will take place "shortly after." This marks the second Private Division published title announced today to be coming to Steam. It seems as though the love-affair with timed-exclusive releases on the Epic Games Store has come to an end already, which is good news for consumers.

This sequel promises to deliver all of the usual improvements compared to the original. it will have more and new plants to explore, new technologies, and the like. It also introduces the ability to create colonies on the alien planets. With that will come more real-world science. You can build larger constructions and more complex creations. You can also create new vehicles.

The best part about that is that all of your creations can be shared with others in the game's multiplayer mode, a first for the franchise. The sequel will continue the tradition set forth in the original game and allow for modding support. It will also include a better tutorial to help new players out.

Kerbal Space Program 2 will be a full-priced ($59.99 USD) title when it hits digital stores in Spring 2020.




“KSP has always been about pushing the boundaries of innovation and creativity, and with Kerbal Space Program 2we take that premise even further,” said Nate Simpson, Creative Director at Star Theory. “We are introducing several new ways for players to challenge themselves, including new physics puzzles to solve, new planetary destinations to conquer, and new ways to advance their own deep-space program. This continues to be a game about exploration, imagination, and understanding rocket physics – with plenty of wild crashes along the way.”

“With Star Theory, we are able to build a new gameplay foundation that is exponentially larger and allows us to explore well beyond the solar system of the original game. This is an exciting time as we are expanding the Kerbal franchise while staying true to the spirit of KSP and what makes the franchise so special,” said Michael Cook, Executive Producer at Private Division. “Kerbal Space Program 2 sparks a passion for a whole new generation of space explorers, future astronauts, and astronomers – which is the reason why we love what we are making here.”
