Creative mode lets players build any type of vessel, without consideration for money, resources, and logistics. Is your spaceship unfeasible in every way? Who cares? The trailer shows off some titanic-sized vessels, some of them resemble ships from old sci-fi films and some of them look like massive mechanical beetles with small rooms hanging off the edge.

Players can take their mammoth designs across a procedurally generated universe with unique missions and scenarios in each system. You might even need your ship for more than just gawking, as enemy vessels are a common sight in deep space. So, you’ll need to make room for hefty weapons alongside the various engines and cabins.

Developers Introversion Software initially planned for a 2022 early access release, and after a small delay, it’s finally ready for takeoff. The Last Starship launches intoSteamearly access on February 15th for $30.
