Explore a procedurally-generated galaxy in this turn-based tactical game mixed with a strong dose of deck-building.
Assemble your crew, load out your ship, and explore the galaxy in this deck-building space roguelike. Your deck is determined by your spaceship's loadout, mix and match equipment to discover different powerful card synergies, and obliterate your enemies in tactical space battles. As you level up your modules, you can unlock new cards to take into future battles.
Breachway doesn’t stop there either - there are many ways you can attack your opponents, from targeting individual hardpoints, to causing the enemy ship to overheat, or simply using a good ol’ fashioned missile barrage. You will need to make snap decisions based on what’s in front of you.
Since its launch into early access (Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store) in September 2024, developer Edgeflow Studio has been hard at work listening to player feedback, introducing new content, and improving the game’s core loop, releasing 12 patches to date.
Now they’re ready to look ahead to the next phase of early access – check out the first part of the planned 2025 roadmap:
In no particular order, highlights include introducing a third sector, overhauling the Starmap with improved map generation and player interactions, as well as enhancing the moment-to-moment excitement as players traverse the galaxy.
Other items on the roadmap include, but are not limited to:
- Better AI faction interaction, including more granular faction relations and faction events
- Environmental effects with implications in tactical battles, such as asteroid fields and ion storms
- Another playable ship, as well as more ship variants
- Crew levels and progression
- Plenty of other new content in the form of enemy models, cards, items, weapon
- Enhanced UI
- And more!
2025 will kick off with the next major update, due in January, which focuses on improved meta-progression – more details on that soon!
Key Features:
- Complex Ship upgrade system - Acquire powerful equipment for your ship, further enhancing its performance with a multitude of subsystems.
- Diverse tactical choices - Hack enemy equipment or disable it with precise rail-gun attacks, overwhelm your enemy with flak barrages, or cook them alive with laser attacks.
- Uncover powerful card synergies - Test out new card combinations and approaches to combat by mixing and matching equipment and cards in your deck.
- Assemble a rag-tag crew - Each crew member has their own quirks and allegiances that have an effect on how you react to encounters and deal with various factions.
- Unlock new ships and factions - Unlock special faction-specific ships as you play and experience the story and events from different angles.
- Carve your own unique path - Your crew and previous choices determine how you can interact with the varied events you encounter on your journey, while tense narrative encounters force you to grapple with morally grey decisions.
