Evaluation
Space Crew: Legendary Edition is the definitive, complete release of Space Crew. The game originally launched on October 15, 2020, and Runner Duck continued to support it with post-launch content. A notable feature patch (Update 1.2) shipped on December 16, 2020, adding new events, weapons, and systems. The major expansion — the "Legendary Edition" itself — launched as a free update on October 21, 2021, adding an entirely new campaign (Android Ambush), Away Team missions, and Legendary Crew members. This rebranded the game as "Space Crew: Legendary Edition," representing the complete, bundled package of all content released for the game.
Since the Legendary Edition launched in October 2021, Runner Duck has not posted any further content updates, feature patches, or development announcements for Space Crew. The studio's communications from 2025 have been entirely focused on their next title, Badlands Crew, which launched on April 28, 2025. The developer's own messaging (NEWS-2) frames Badlands Crew as the next evolution of their franchise, with no mention of returning to Space Crew. The only DLC listed on the store is the soundtrack, which was available at launch.
The game title itself — "Space Crew: Legendary Edition" — reflects its status as a complete, all-inclusive package. All content has shipped, the developer has moved on to a new project, and no further updates or content have been announced for this title.

About this game
This is Space Crew: Legendary Edition. The legendarily challenging single-player strategic survival simulation game!
You are a captain in the United Defense Force, captain of your own star ship. Recruit your crew, customise your ship and head out to explore the galaxy, defending Earth against the mysterious extraterrestrial threat, known as the Phasmids! There will be challenges ahead. Crew members will be lost. Dangerous missions must be undertaken. Galactic Legends will be made!
Travel through the galaxy to defeat the threat to humankind across a range of sorties, including reconnaissance, bounty hunts, reclamation and NEW Away Team missions. Train your crew into an elite fighting force from Captain to Comms Officer to tackle stressful and deadly situations such as fighter attack and ship invasions, whilst also repairing systems and putting out the odd fire or two! Customise and upgrade your spaceship with improved weapons, armour, engines and more (even a custom paint job for extra style!)
Android Ambush is a brand-new campaign to add to the core Space Crew adventure. Take on a droid army led by rogue androids, previously allied with the United Defence Force! Battle against a whole host of new Enemy Champions and ships across a new star system with new gear, liveries and upgrades available for victorious Captains to unlock. However, these androids don’t play by the same rules as the phasmids, so you’ll have to re-write your tactics from scratch.
Leave your ship and venture on foot with three of your crew onto outposts and large vessels in the all NEW Away Team missions, discoverable across both Space Crew campaigns. Selecting the right team will be critical for survival as Away Team missions can consist of exploration, puzzles, or combat… sometimes even against the clock!
A Legendary Edition needs legendary crew! Build and personalise your ultimate crew by rescuing and discovering legendary crew members with amazing abilities and superior stats. However, you won’t just be able to recruit these one-of-a-kind crew members, you’ll have to find them during rescue and Away Team missions or unlock them using codes from community competitions.
