'Space Gears' Is A Sci-Fi Strategy Game Set On Mars, Comes To PC In Q3 2023 - Screens & Trailer

Space Gears is a sci-fi Mars terraformer/strategy game featuring base-building, mech-assembly, and fast-paced mech-on-mech PvE/PvP combat that relies on real-time play mechanics.

Space Gears is a sci-fi, strategy game that has players terraform Mars with an army of mechs. Players must cooperate or compete with each other to gain control over scarce resources on the Red Planet.

Set on Mars, players take on the role of pioneers, constructing bases and commanding armies of powerful mechs. The game encourages players to form alliances and compete against one another for control of limited resources. With its fluid, fast-paced PvE and PvP battles, Space Gears eliminates traditional build orders, resource management, and base expansions, concentrating instead on real-time play. This approach allows players to master well-timed and coordinated strikes against their adversaries, making every battle a thrilling experience.

To overcome the limitations of classic RTS games, which have been characterized by difficult and complex micromanaging and a high barrier to entry for new players, the focus was taken off of complex multi-tasking, involving build orders, resource allocation, and base expansions, and instead focused on delivering intuitive combat. Players can enjoy combat and strategy through multiple, fluid and fast-paced PvE and PvP modes that are immersive and easy to play.


The video showcases the game's systems, including land terraforming, base-building, and mech-assembly, as well as its combat system, featuring intense mech-on-mech, squad-based battles.

"Space Gears is a collective effort of Korean developers who love the sci-fi genre and RTS games," said CEO Ham Young-chul. "We're working hard to bring it to strategy fans around the world on Steam, so stay tuned."
Executive producer of Pentapeak Studios, In-won Lee stated, “After a year of development, we are pleased to announce the game as a pre-alpha build. We’re working hard to complete it with over 30 passionate developers,” and added, “We are also recruiting members for Pentapeak Studios. We hope you keep an eye on this as well.”

Space Gears is coming to PC (Steam) in Q3 2023, with detailed game information and a testing schedule to be released in Q2.
