StarRupture Early Access Launch State
When StarRupture enters early access, it will already include most of its planned core features. Players will be able to explore the open world, gather resources, and construct advanced machines capable of mining, harvesting, crafting, and assembling materials. The experience also supports four-player online co-op, allowing friends to build and survive together.
Looking ahead, the full 1.0 release will expand the experience further with additional biomes, new enemy types, deeper building systems, and a dedicated story mode. In short, the foundation will already be in place at launch, with future updates focusing on expansion and refinement.
Can You Pre-Order StarRupture?
No. Since StarRupture is launching as an early access title, pre-orders are not available. The game will be available for purchase directly on Steam once early access begins on January 6, 2026.
