Epic Space Strategy Game Adding New Beginner-Friendly Assist Update

Interstellar Space: Genesis Expands Reach to Epic Games Store

Praxis Games has officially brought its turn-based 4X space strategy title, Interstellar Space: Genesis, to the Epic Games Store. Drawing inspiration from the classic strategy games of the 1990s, the title allows players to build a galactic empire through exploration, colonization, and tactical combat.

Building a Galactic Empire

In Interstellar Space: Genesis, players take on the role of a space-faring society striving for dominance in the galaxy. The gameplay loop focuses on several core pillars of the 4X genre (Explore, Expand, Exploit, and Exterminate):

• Exploration: Players can discover mysteries and treasures among the stars by sending survey ships or exploring star systems remotely.
• Colonization: Establishing new worlds is key to advancing a society’s cultural and technological standing.
• Conflict and Diplomacy: Players must navigate the galaxy by engaging enemies through diplomatic channels or tactical turn-based combat.

Content and Expansions

Since its initial release on July 25, 2019, the game has undergone continuous active development. This includes free content updates for bug fixes, balance changes, and new features. All previously released content and expansions are available on the Epic Games Store.

Key expansions and DLC include:

• Natural Law: This expansion introduces two new races with unique capabilities (similarly available for custom races), four new leaders, nine animated ruler options, and four music tracks.
• Evolving Empires: This update adds the “Evolutions” and “Minor Civilizations” features, alongside seven new leaders and two additional music tracks.
• Terrains Pack: Released on January 31, 2024, this DLC provides a selection of new 3D terrains to increase variety in colony backgrounds.

Looking Ahead
