What is Space Rift - Episode 1?

This single-player space adventure is designed for VR and played from a ship’s cockpit. Across a mission-based campaign, you fight drones, mine asteroids, and spend minerals on ship upgrades. In a future where humanity lives on corporate-controlled Mars, you join rebels after a computer error brands you a traitor.

For you if...

  • +you prefer straightforward flight controls over complex space simulation

Not for you if...

  • −you prefer open-ended exploration to a linear story
  • −you want multiplayer missions rather than a solo campaign
