Starsector Wiki

	The Domain of Man is no more. Their countless fleets and innumerable armies have been shattered and lost. The comforts of their civilization are a distant memory. Cut off from the Star Gate network and scattered in isolated pockets throughout the galaxy, humanity is trying to recover from the great Collapse.
–Fractal Softworks Website

Fractal Softworks' Starsector (formerly Starfarer) is an open-world single-player space adventure, seamlessly blending strategic fleet management with intense ship-to-ship combat. Build up your own fleet and guide it through the campaign, taking control of your flagship during the combat. Meet eight unique factions, each with their own philosophy and fleet doctrine. Be a trader, a mercenary, an explorer looking for valuable salvage in uncharted systems, or even establish your own colony, challenging other factions for the dominance in the sector. Starsector is currently in active development, and numerous features are still planned to be added.
