Challenging the conventional image of deep space as a desolate and lonely place, the upcoming game Drift offers a cooperative adventure where up to eight players can band together to survive in a hazardous asteroid field. Scheduled to launch in early access on May 12th on Steam, Drift allows players to collaborate in rebuilding their crashed research ship, navigating the dangerous asteroid field, and encountering various alien flora and fauna.
As players explore the vast open sci-fi world, they will be accompanied by a trusty drone that helps gather resources to expand their spacecraft, construct machines for efficient resource collection, and personalize their new interstellar home. Sci-fi enthusiasts will appreciate the opportunity to build a tractor beam, automating the process of attracting space rocks and converting them into valuable resources.
The game encourages players to gear up and explore the cosmos with their friends, gathering resources and uncovering answers one rock at a time. With a soundtrack by Curtis Schweitzer, players will have a truly immersive experience as they traverse the asteroid field.
As players collect resources, they can rebuild their research ship, which was once a bustling small town focused on science. By incorporating life support and other advanced systems, players can alleviate the pressures of living in space and use scavenged materials to make their ship feel like home.
Crafting and automation play a crucial role in Drift, as players create survival gear, multi-tool upgrades, and more to help them endure their journey. Automation allows players to continue working while venturing deeper into the unknown.
The full game, featuring full multiplayer capabilities, is scheduled for release on May 12th. As Drift’s early access release approaches, players can anticipate an exciting and engaging cooperative space survival adventure.
