Kerbal Space Program 2
It’s been years since the first rocket ship sim blew up on Steam Early Access. A decade later fans are still waiting for the sequel. The reason why is less of a mystery. Development has been all over the place. Kerbal Space Program was bought by Take-Two in 2017. A rebranded Uber Entertainment, responsible for the Planetary Annihilation Kickstarter debacle, was hired to work on it. Instead of acquiring the studio, Take-Two later poached its staff and set up to finish the game in-house with involvement of some of the original team. In 2020, Kerbal Space Program 2 got a release window of 2022. Earlier this year, it was delayed until 2023. A couple months ago that release date turned into an Early Access date. Hopefully escape velocity gets achieved someday.
Reason for delay: “additional time to ensure we hit the quality and level of polish it deserves”
New release date: February 24, 2023
