What you need to know
If you’ve ever wanted to be a truck driver in space, hauling special space cargo with your unique space rig and encountering unique stellar events and hazards, Raw Fury and Monster & Monster have a game for you. The upcoming space RPG and trucking simulator is heading exclusively toXbox Series X|Sconsoles andPCon September 3. Star Trucker will join theGame Passcatalog on day one.
Star Trucker, like many other trucking simulators, will invite players to pilot their own trucking rig, attach cargo, and dock at stations to deliver the goods. Of course, this is in space, now, so there’s also a need to learn how to manage and repair your hull when you run into issues, as well as just successfully navigate the stars. Jobs are procedurally generated in Star Trucker, meaning the player will never run out of quests to keep them busy.
Side quests featuring fully-voiced characters help to make the galaxy feel alive, and players can communicate with those characters using a CB radio. Players will have the ability to leave their rig to spacewalk while repairing the rig or collecting salvage. Goods and contraband can be traded, and a functional economy will continue to shake up the galaxy. Star Trucker will be asingle-playersimulator, and there are no plans from Monster & Monster to introduce multiplayer or co-op in the future.
The PC edition of Star Trucker will support game controllers at launch, along with keyboard and mouse support.
