•As part of IGN Fan Fest 2026: Fall Edition, Snail Games USA has revealed five new screenshots of For the Stars, its upcoming space sandbox survival game in which players explore and settle planets and uncover the secrets of alien civilizations.
The images show off some of the game’s different biomes, weapons, flora and fauna, vehicles, spaceships, and more. They also offer a glimpse into the multiplayer experience that lets friends explore the universe together.
Players will travel from planet to planet, establishing outposts to upgrade their tech, studying alien artifacts and natural phenomena, and surviving challenges in an effort to become more powerful and “explore further into the unknown.”
Outposts require players to balance the needs of each area with proper laboratories, factories, and living quarters. Spacecraft can be upgraded and customized to make them unique and suited for any task ahead.
Friends can come along for the ride: players can collaborate on building projects, share discoveries, and work together to overcome obstacles. Snail Games USA also teases that players can “choose to enter contested regions to fight other players for control of the galaxy.”
This report is by Adam Bankhurst, a writer for IGN.
