'Legends of Azulgar' Available On Steam Early Access - Screens & Trailer

Legends of Azulgar is a sci-fi action oriented role-playing game with strategic and rogue-like elements that puts you in command of a space ship, space station and a fleet in a massive sandbox universe.

In 2158 a terrestrial observatory on earth detected traces of an ancient signal from the distant solar system of Auriga. As the world's top scientists investigated, it started to become clear that this signal did not originate from a celestial anomaly - but from an artificial source.

With the signal now partially deciphered you are tasked to explore this new strange solar system and discover the secrets of Azulgar - also its mysterious signal.

Legends of Azulgar can be played as a co-op with your friends or in deathmatch to test the skills of captains and their ship builds. The game immerses the player in a fully interactive environment and a world rich in lore and Legends.

Every shot matters - Legends of Azulgar is inspired by naval combat and focuses heavily on player ability with every weapon in combat aimed and controlled directly by the player. Carefully line up a torpedo strike to inflict maximum damage, lead your targets to ensure a crippling shell impact or charge in for close range combat.


“While we have a clear vision of how we want to see the future development of the game, we still want feedback from the community and implement as many requested features as possible. We are very open to suggestions as we realise that we are making a game for the players. We listen to the community.”

Lusorion wants to open up the different features of the game to public as the time passes and the game is being thoroughly tested to provide the best quality experience possible.

The first alpha release of the game will feature a ship editor. Basic survival elements and a basic coop map. Enemies that will drop basic loot. Deathmatch map and a creative mode that will not restrict the players in any way. Game will open up its sales with a 50% discount on Steam Early Access with a price tag of 7.49 USD.

The game will be updated regularly to ensure a flow of new features for players.


Will you be a space miner hauling asteroids with your grappling hook (yes.. a grappling hook! More on that later!) or an explorer attempting to discover the secrets of Azulgar...

  • Build your own ship and use modules to achieve different performance - add weapons, shields, life support, missile defenses and more. but beware! Modules can be destroyed and when they are you’ll lose that functionality so armor them well - or be too fast to hit!
  • Physical model for ship movement. Check your weight and mount thrusters for increased maneuverability.
  • Save your favorite designs for reuse later, customize your fleet on the fly to combat each encounter - or you will be able share them with your friends via the Steam Workshop.

  • Afterburners: Escape the battle or use them to close range and surprise your enemy - but remember afterburners have limited energy so don't get caught out.

    • Captains drop these cards once their Bridge module is destroyed and other players or NPCs can loot them.
    • Players will be able to trade cards or play various games in pubs or outside the game in order to get them
