The Sid Meier brand is like no other. The last game by Sid was Civilization: Beyond Earth. That game was an epic success. Now Sid introduces Sid Meier’s Starships. The space game will come out on Mac, iPad and PC later this year. The game will be in the same universe and story arch as Civilization. What is great about this game is that it will feature “cross-connectivity”.
“When designing Starships, I was intrigued by the idea of exploring the next chapter in the story of Civilization: Beyond Earth. What happens after we colonize our new home and eventually build starships to take to the stars? What has become of our long-lost brothers and sisters from the planet Earth? My goal was to create an experience that focuses on starship design and combat within a universe filled with interstellar adventure, diplomacy, and exploration.“
You will be a commander of a fleet of starships. You have full freedom to customize their fleet. Exploration and building up your fleet is the main goal of the game. You will also be researching future technology to build up the ships. Each player will see a unique map within the galaxy every they step into their Starship. There is no exact release date or pricing yet on the game.
