Astroneer Coming to Xbox Game Preview in December
A new game is coming to the Xbox One Preview Program this December, and it is called Astroneer. Coming from developer System Era Softworks, the game game about wonder. Humanity has recently gained the ability to travel between the stars, prompting a gold rush of sorts in space. You play an Astroneer: a near-future prospector seeking fortune and adventure, deposited on far-flung worlds by your enigmatic outfitting company. Astroneers must use the tools available to them to build thriving bases, discover valuable resources, and uncover exotic and mysterious artifacts.
Astroneer is also a game about exploration and creativity. The worlds in Astroneer are diverse, each combining careful artistry and procedural generation to create unique and beautiful experiences. Yet, each world can be reshaped by your tools. The entire volume of the world can be dug, sculpted, or added to at your whim. Every cubic inch of every world is accessible to you. Excavate vast underground tunnels or create megaliths on the surface; the world is your Play-Doh.
Finally, the game about cooperation. The game supports online co-op for up to four players, and exploring and sculpting the worlds with friends is an experience we’re absolutely committed to. We can’t wait to see what kinds of incredible creations gamers will make, especially with the help of their friends. There’s something special about playing the game in the living room and we’re happy to capture that magic.
Anyhow, check out the trailer below for a sneak peek:
