About the Game

Welcome to the final frontier — where survival isn’t a right, it’s a fight.

Stars End is a player-hosted/solo sci-fi survival sandbox set hundreds of years in the future, in a star system colonized by humans escaping a dying Earth. What was meant to be a second chance has become a lawless frontier — a place where every scrap, bullet, and building must be earned.

Out here, you’ll wrangle resources from dangerous planets, fend off alien wildlife (watch out for bears), and build your own base — be it a frontier shack or a fortified space station. Explore procedurally generated worlds on foot, horseback, or by starship, then blast into orbit and continue the fight in space.

Play solo or host your own server as you stake a claim in a persistent galaxy where survival is tough, but freedom is yours to take. Whether you're settling the land or raiding for loot, Stars End gives you the tools — and the grit — to shape your own path.

Features

  • Procedurally Generated Planets – Each world is unique, with varied biomes, threats, and resources to uncover.

  • True Survival Experience – Battle alien wildlife, endure hostile environments, and scavenge for the materials needed to stay alive.

  • Build Your Base, Your Way – Construct rugged cabins, fortified outposts, or advanced space stations with a deep crafting and construction system.

  • PvE and PvP Combat – Engage in tense FPS-style battles against AI factions or rival survivors.

  • Explore Land and Space – Traverse the terrain by vehicle or horse,  then seamlessly launch into orbit aboard your personal starship.

  • Solo or Player-Hosted Servers – Play alone, with friends, or open your world to others via custom servers.

  • Persistent Open World – Build, explore, and take on story-driven missions across procedurally generated planets in a  sci-fi sandbox.
