Starseeker: Astroneer Expeditions is an even more co-op focused spinoff of the massively popular survival space sim Astroneer, and it's coming to Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC sometime next year.
Quietly revealed during the blitz of announcements that happened during this week's Switch 2 Direct, Starseeker is billed as "a new game set within the Astroneer universe with a focus on discovery, cooperative expeditions, and camaraderie." To be clear though, developer System Era Softworks and publisher Devolver Digital stress that Starseeker "is not an Astroneer sequel or Astroneer 2," but rather a separate entity that'll live alongside Astroneer, which "will continue to live on with more updates and content for years to come."
The game's current website description doesn't do a whole lot to explain exactly how gameplay works, and neither does the above trailer, but it looks as if there's support for up to four-player co-op during expeditions. In the Starseeker hub, however, there appears to be a large number of players running around, so it seems like there's some potential for much larger scale multiplayer than Astroneer. We'll definitely keep our heads turned toward the sky for updates.
