About the game
Warped Universe: A Meta-driven Sci-fi Looter Shooter
You deploy onto a planet consumed by the Void. Push through the corruption, neutralize the cosmic threat, secure vital resources.
But here's the thing. That mission didn't just help you.
The Residuum you obtained just powered a facility on that planet. That facility, once completed, just gave a permanent buff to every player in the game. Meanwhile, someone else on the other side of the galaxy just discovered a new planet, unlocking more global buffs. Hundreds of these objectives, every season, all feeding the same universe.
You run the mission. The whole galaxy feels it.
And one more thing. Every mission can be played as real-time action or turn-based tactics. Your choice, every time. Bring your reflexes. Bring your strategy. Both work.
That's Warped Universe. A PvE looter shooter where the community drives the entire universe forward together. Run missions solo today. Squad co-op for up to 4 players arrives in an early post-launch update.
Who are you?
You aren't human anymore, not exactly. You stepped through the Celadon Gate, a portal away from a dying Earth, and were remade on the other side. The Oracle called you through, an ancient AI that needed people like you to stand against an erasure spreading at the edges of reality. The universe you warped into is held in balance by the Oracle. Not everyone agrees with how it runs things. A faction broke away. The Void keeps closing in. You're synthetic now, reprinted every time it erases you, and you're the only thing standing between matter and silence.
Explore. Defend. Upgrade. Empower.
Explore: Discover uncharted sectors and hidden planets.
Defend: Protect hundreds of seasonal objectives from the Void, a relentless alien enemy.
Upgrade: Collect Cores and Sparks to evolve and power up your custom Echo Suit and Ship.
Empower: Secure facilities to unlock permanent global buffs for everyone.
Free to play, forever. Cosmetics are the only thing you can buy. No paywalls. No pay-to-win. No gameplay locked behind a purchase

What Makes It Different
A Shared Destiny
Every mission feeds the bigger picture. Complete objectives, extract Residuum, activate and defend planetary facilities. The buffs don’t just go to your squad. They go to everyone. The more the community plays, the more the solar system opens up. Every facility you finish unlocks a permanent power-up for the entire community. Work together to guide the expansion.
Play Your Way
Bring your shooter friend. Bring your tactics friend. Bring the friend who just wants to fly through space. Everyone plays the way they want, and it all counts. The solar system expands based on what the community accomplishes together.
Independently Developed
Built by a team of 12. No publisher, no investors telling us what to make. Just developers with credits on Jumpgate, Auto Assault, LEGO Universe, and Dragons & Titans, building the game we wanted to play.
Free to Play, Forever
The game stays free after Early Access. The full experience is here from day one. Buy cosmetics if you like the look. Don't if you don't.
Key Features
A Futuristic Shared, Living Universe: Every player contributes to the season-wide meta-goal. Connect new sectors through Pylons, complete missions to power facilities, and watch planets evolve from raw rock into finished worlds. The buffs go to everyone, the map grows for everyone, and even solo missions feed the same universe.
You Are an Echo: Your body was left on Earth. You're synthetic now: your consciousness in a custom Echo, reprinted every time the Void erases you. Power it up with Cores, Sparks, and Psionic skills earned from faction missions.
Personal and Communal Progression: Power up your own Echo Frame, weapons, and ship while the community builds out the shared universe around you. Both grow together.
Ground Combat: Engage in missions across diverse locations, including asteroids and evolving planets.
Space Exploration: Navigate asteroid fields, debris, and massive organic structures left behind by the Void.
Persistent Hub: Nexus Station, built by the Oracle and the first humans through the Gate, at the edge of collapsing space. Gear up, customize, plan, gather between missions.
Choose Your Playstyle: Seamlessly switch between real-time action and turn-based tactics in both ground and space combat.
Solo Missions Now, Squad Co-op Coming: Battle the Void across ever-changing solar systems. Every action you take feeds the shared universe. Up to 4 player co-op arrives in an early post-launch update.
Seasonal Content: Expanding solar systems, evolving gameplay, and new challenges every season.
Nexus Station
The Nexus Station is the heart of this new universe, built by the Oracle and the first humans through the Celadon Gate. It's where you gather, gear up, and plan missions before stepping back out into space.
A real-time 3D solar system map at the center of the station lets you track planetary progress, monitor operational facilities, and scout for regions to expand the Oracle's reach.
Workstations throughout the station are where you acquire new equipment, apply cosmetics, and add upgrades to your arsenal before heading back out.
WHAT’S COMING
Season Zero is just the beginning. We have major gameplay expansions planned that will fundamentally change how you approach every mission. Follow us for reveals.
SEASONAL SOLAR SYSTEMS
In Warped Universe, seasonal gameplay will keep the experience fresh and ever-changing. As players complete missions and collect Residuum, they’ll construct new planets and establish various facilities to unlock technologies, all while defending their creations from the Void’s relentless threat.
Each season introduces new solar systems, missions, and technology to explore with lore updates that bring new environments, combatants, and cosmetics.
SEASON ZERO
This is the beginning. New planets, new enemies, new facilities. Your progress matters. What the community builds in Season Zero shapes everything that comes next.
