Violate the Law, get thrown into the Wastes.  A black void of scorched rock and scrap metal watched over by the doomed red giant we call The Dead Star.  A prison without walls, filled with some of the worst psychos and killers you’ve ever met.

There are millions of us here now, fighting for survival.   Every pilot trying to make a name for themselves before they’re blasted into oblivion.  We were sent here to live out the rest of our lives, scavenging whatever wreckage we can find while the Guardian A.I. looks on in silence.  

But now our sentence is getting cut short.  The Dead Star’s about to go nova, and if you thought this place was a wasteland before, it’s going to get a hell of a lot worse real quick.

Pilot a variety of unique ships through procedurally generated battlefields as you fight against other players, capturing and upgrading outposts to gain control of the region. Your skills in combat will determine whether you die in a blast of laser fire or gain infamy as the galaxy's greatest pilot.

Having only launched earlier this year, developer Armature Studio announced that online functionality (including multiplayer) for Dead Star will cease November 1, 2016.

The reason for shutting down the PC and PSN servers is simple: "We are shutting down the game because, bluntly, the costs of operating the game now exceed its income."

Key Features:

• 10 vs. 10 Multiplayer Space Combat: Fast-paced action with strategic goals. Pilot your ship in intense dogfights, capture outposts to expand your presence, mine ore to upgrade your defenses, and discover secrets buried within the wreckage of ancient battlefields. With a wide selection of playstyles to choose from, each pilot can define their own path to victory in The Wastes.
• Customizable Ship and Upgrades: Choose from a variety of ships – from high-speed scouts to heavy combat frigates -- from differing alien races, each equipped with a unique set of abilities. For each match, you’ll choose how you want to unlock and upgrade your potential, responding dynamically to the changing battlefield. With each victory, you’ll earn new rewards, including unique Skins to decorate your ships, Augments that can be used to craft permanent upgrades to your ships’ abilities, or Specialists to assist you in your experiments.
• Procedurally Generated Battlefields: A different experience each time you play. Every match, the battlefield is constructed from a collection of sector layouts, each populated with a randomized selection of game features.  These features include a variety of outposts, asteroids, ship wreckage, mine fields, automated turrets, gaseous nebulas, abandoned cargo containers, comet storms, wandering Guardian A.I., and many more hazards to challenge even the most experienced pilots.
