'Wega' Is A Sci-fi Survival Game Coming To Steam Early Access Later This Month - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Aug. 9, 2022 @ 5:28 p.m. PDT

Wega is a sci-fi survival game where you play as an elite scavenger unit and drive bike EVA, who happens to be an AI and also your best friend.

Drive a speeder bike, collect resources, craft and explore an alien word.

You play as Yager, elite scavenger unit, searching for resources on a desolate planet. You were chased into an unexplored region by creature you have never seen before. Now you need to survive deadly radiation, rogue drones and other local dangers, if you want to get back to Arcadia, floating mirror city, last city on this deserted planet.

Wega is driving most of it's inspiration from Subnautica and Star Wars, sense of loneliness, dread and ever present danger from environment and who knows what else. Crafting, exploration, upgrades yaddy, yaddy, yadda…

The esthetic is influenced by retro futurism and great 70s sci-fi artists like John Harris.


Wega will be available through Steam Early access on August 24, 2022 and will remain so for about 12 months.

"This project is mostly solo dev effort I have been working on for several years. As a dev working for over 12 years in the industry, I have put a lot effort into many other games already, but Wega is a passion project more than others. Currently it's just a small version of it one day could be, but hopefully with at least little bit of support it could become something unique while still being clearly inspired by the greatests in the genre."

“The game is essentially in prototype version, to get an idea how the game can feel, get feel for some game features. The world is quite empty and populating is primary focus with each update. The full version will feature more story, more features, much bigger world, many more items, upgrades for bike and player. Cities to explore, characters to talk to and much more.”

Wega: Lost In The Outer Reaches is in development for PC (Steam).
