Need your 4x space fix but find the likes of Stellaris just a bit too long? Perhaps keep an eye on the upcoming release of New Stars.

A big one for Stellaris is here with the Stellaris: Galactic Paragons expansion launched along with the 3.8 "Gemini" patch for all players.

Starsector is something quite special, originally called Starfarer it's been in development for quite a few years now and a big new release is now available.

Stellaris: Galactic Paragons is the next expansion for my favourite space strategy game from Paradox Interactive and it's coming May 9th.

Egosoft have just released the next major expansion for X4: Foundations named X4: Kingdom End, plus a major free upgrade is also out now that brings full Steam Deck Verified support.

ROCKFISH Games have now launched EVERSPACE 2 and it looks awesome! One of their original Kickstarter promises did not make it though, with Native Linux support being cancelled as they will support it with Proton instead.

No Man's Sky works great on Linux desktop and Steam Deck with Proton and now I need to jump back in because the Interceptor update sounds great.

After quite a while of waiting, Ominux Games have released The Wilderness update for space colony building sim Starmancer.

Relic Space combines together smooth turn-based movement (think like Jupiter Hell) with tactical combat, RPG mechanics and 4X elements.

No Man's Sky has another big update out now that includes an overhaul of quite a few features like much better VR support, and a new Expedition.

If you love free and open source games keep an eye on the 2D space sim Endless Sky, which just got a new Beta release with version 0.10.0 giving some fresh gameplay improvements.

For those of you curious on what's happening with EVERSPACE 2 for Linux, ROCKFISH Games have given an official update on what to expect.

EVERSPACE 2 from ROCKFISH Games is ready to properly blast off on April 6th and it's looking mighty fine.

Breachway looks like one to watch, a game the blends together the deck-building of Slay the Spire and space antics of FTL.

Flight Of Nova is a solo-developed space and atmospheric flight sim currently in Early Access, it looks quite impressive and it now has a Native Linux version.

Naev is a reasonably well known free and open source 2D space sim, one that's about to get a whole lot bigger with the v0.10 release now in Beta (specifically, it's on its second Beta).

EVERSPACE 2 appears to be quite a success for ROCKFISH Games, not only is it doing well on Steam with a Very Positive rating in Early Access but they just got a big bonus from the German federal parliament.

Starcom: Unknown Space is entering Early Access in December from Wx3 Labs, LLC set in the same universe as their previous game Starcom: Nexus.

Paradox have put out the latest free update to their grand space strategy game Stellaris, the 3.6 "Orion" update is less about new content and more about improving the game.

Void Scrappers Prologue, the new free version of the bigger upcoming Void Scrappers is out now and I had a chance to try it before release and came away very impressed.
