We’re getting very close to the VS2 release, and right now my main focus is finishing the remaining tasks – bugs, polish, small fixes, everything that needs to be done before we can call it stable.


On Wednesday (yesterday), we had around 360 open tickets, but as you can see from this chart, we’re closing about 50 per day. That’s possible thanks to our large team of roughly 70 people, where work can be nicely parallelized.


Another big priority is testing – finding and fixing bugs as fast as possible. We’re also doing playtesting – going through the FTUE, contracts, encounters, and meta loop, to see if it’s actually fun.

VS2 is “just” the introduction of survival, so it covers only the basics. I think it already feels fun in parts, but the real fun will come in future updates – when we add

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

Our favorite pastime is browsing through the workshop - we are in love with all the creations our players are constantly sharing.

We can't wait every month to spotlight mods and blueprints that catch our eye and have the potential to make your time in Space Engineers more interesting and unique.

Here is our spotlight for the month of October!
