Space Engineers 2: Designing Colonization

03/11/2025

Our colleague Gerd Fankhaenel, Space Engineers 2 Design Lead, shares new details about the upcoming Colonization feature:

  • The VS2 Update will introduce the base colonization systems and the first Almagest sectors (with more to come later!)
  • Players will begin their journey as early explorers, completing engineering contracts to repair and build structures that form the foundation for future settlers
  • In these early stages of development, players can use a fast travel network of “jump lanes” between space stations to move quickly through the Almagest system – but you can also fly freely anywhere without any loading screens
  • A new map will track colonization progress, display resource distribution, and feature a fog of war to encourage exploration and discovery
