Overview

• Devolver Digital and System Era Softworks released a 17-minute gameplay video that outlines a session-based co-op loop launching from the ESS Starseeker.
• Squads of up to four players undertake timed missions with limited oxygen, complete objectives, collect loot, then return to the station before time expires.
• The first handcrafted destination, Tephra, features hazards, creatures, and unlockable Landing Zones that open tougher cooperative objectives.
• EXO Tools use modular Nozzles such as Water Hoses to reshape terrain and clean machinery; the demo showed repairing gooped equipment and assembling a cliffside comms relay under a timer.
• A 2026 launch is planned on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and PC, with early coverage praising the co-op chaos yet questioning post-mission progression and station building details.
