Starseeker: Astroneer Expeditions blasts off into early access today, with a full planet ready for you to explore
Starseeker: Astroneer Expeditions, a spin-off of the original Astroneer, has launched into early access on June 11, 2026. Developed by System Era Softworks, the game features a full planet ready for players to explore from day one.
According to the developers, the early access launch represents “the beginning of the conversation” they’ve been planning to have with players. System Era Softworks emphasizes that what players find on launch day is “the starting shape of the game,” indicating the title will evolve significantly during its early access period. The studio has committed to growing and adapting the game based on player feedback and ongoing development.
The game had previously shown off gameplay for the first time before this early access release, introducing players to the exploration mechanics and features that define this iteration of the Astroneer universe.
