Evaluation

Habitat launched out of Early Access on January 26, 2016, with developer 4gency marking it as the full 1.0 release. The launch post celebrated the graduation from Early Access and outlined all the work done during that period. There is no record of any post-launch content updates, DLC, expansions, or roadmap promises made after the 1.0 release. The only news posts after launch are publisher Versus Evil's seasonal sale announcements (November 2023, March 2023, December 2023), which promote their broader catalog and do not mention any new content for Habitat. There are no unreleased DLC entries on the store. The game shipped as a complete product at 1.0 and has received no post-launch content additions from the developer.

About this game

Earth is doomed and our only hope is getting a survivable habitat up in space using whatever resources are scattered in orbit. You’re left with debris, junk, and other oddities to use for humanity’s survival. Build, upgrade, and control the Habitats that you create as you see fit. The main Campaign will take you through narrative-driven missions while Sandbox mode will give you a blank slate and pure creative control to build and explore at your leisure.

Leading your team of engineers, you will have to build and fly your space stations in a zero gravity setting. Learn to scavenge and thrive with whatever you find floating around in space, or go on the hunt to take what you need from other factions trying to survive. In the event of a threat, get creative and turn your space stations into deadly weapons using pieces of debris you pick up such as rockets, lasers and particle accelerators, to fight with. Crisis is guaranteed; your only chance of survival is to get creative and to be decisive in the face of disaster.
