Realistic travel to the moon has never been easier... In any case, it will be possible with Moonshot, a video game developed by BeardedBrothers.Games and scheduled for release on PC via Steam in 2027. The game is not just another space odyssey, but a scientific expedition to colonize space, based on current scientific advances. The game promises unprecedented immersion in the challenges and wonders of human settlement on the Moon.
Moonshot stands out for its rigorous, documented approach to science fiction. Far from the usual fantastical tales, it is rooted in tangible scientific reality, offering a play experience that is both realistic and instructive. Players are invited to take on the role of leaders of a pioneering team, with the mission of reviving the human presence on the Moon. Beyond simple survival, the game integrates elements of management and strategy, inviting players to build and manage bases in the manner of a tycoon, while skillfully navigating through lunar landscapes with technologies close to our immediate future.
But Moonshot goes further by integrating a dimension of resource management and adaptation to the extreme conditions of space, highlighting the real-life challenges of space colonization. From oxygen management to acclimatization to lunar conditions, every aspect of the game has been designed to reflect the scientific and logistical challenges of such an undertaking. This educational approach is coupled with a collaborative experience, where players can join forces to build the ultimate lunar colony, or even prepare for more distant expeditions, such as the conquest of Mars.
With an early access release scheduled for the third quarter of 2025 on PC, Moonshot is already shaping up to be a little nugget - or at least a UFO - for fans of survival and management games, but also for all those fascinated by the conquest of space. A promise of authenticity and innovation, inviting us to reimagine our future among the stars. All we have to do now is don our spacesuits and wait for the game to come out!
