We’ve been cooking quite a bit for you guys. Here are the latest updates:
New Lighting, VFX and Material Overhaul
We’ve done a huge amount of polish on lighting, VFX, materials and the overall feel of our visuals while keeping similar performance. We think the difference is clear. Let us know your thoughts below!
OLD Lighting, Materials and Effects:
Galactic War
Two brand-new co-op missions just dropped, bringing the current total to 6— and there’s more on the way! Also, Galactic War super structures, our MMO layer for Co-op, will start being playable and provide a powerful obstacle to contend with in your battles across the sector.
Coop Map: Siege Trap
Galactic War Super Structures
Trade Federation Super Structure
Solar Collector Super Structure
Ship Layer Unlocked for Campaign
Take your ship, the Aegis Oath, on a spin as you play through our revamped Prologue, offering new cutscenes, new missions and new dialog choices. This is a first look preview of the ship layer and prologue. Explore your ship - meet your crewmates, unlock upgrades, embark on quests, and more. Extra bonus: Your ship will also be available in Galactic War for you to use!
Versus Mode Additions
Over the last few playtests we’ve been really honing our Versus mode. It’s at a point that we’re quite proud of. Even more is coming, including new base mining designs that we’ll showcase very soon. The goal of our versus mode has always been to support a huge diversity of units and playstyles alongside an engaging action RTS core.
New Grell Unit: Brood Guard
This new unit spawns spiderlings as it takes damage. It’s tanky, terrifying, and hard to ignore..
Protectorate New Ability: Protective Shield
Instant veterancy + regen shield outside of combat. Synergizes great with mercs & allies.
Reinforce is now a talent if you still want to use it!
We’ll be dropping some new cutscenes next week before the Tacticon Demo. Join us on Discord and tell us what you think of all the upcoming changes! You can also find our patch notes there.
Keep an eye out for the Grell, we’ve spotted some of their buildings nearby…
Make sure to grab a friend, and join us for our Open Demo on July 11 - 21st! Sharing content is allowed!
Please drop any feedback into our Discord, so we can build a better ZeroSpace, and make sure to Wishlist ZeroSpace on Steam if you haven’t already. Every wishlist counts!Â

Endari - Coop & Campaign Enemy
When Arandi creatures become corrupted, they turn into monstrous creatures called the Endari... Here’s a look at one of their most recent transformations:Â
Multiplayer
We’ve made a few updates to improve the feel of multiplayer matches. The Legion now has a new top bar ability, some unit matchups have been adjusted to create clearer strengths and weaknesses, and we’ve added more variation in move speeds to help units feel more distinct!
Campaign
While our campaign won’t be available during Wargames Fest, we’ve been hard at work building out new missions & cinematics, refining the story, and creating new cinematic models!
