What is Starbound?
Starbound, a sci-fi sandbox adventure, available for the first time on console!
You’ve fled your homeland and found yourself lost in space with a damaged ship. Your only option is to beam down to the planet and gather the resources you need to repair your ship, then set off to explore the vast, infinite universe…
In Starbound, you create your own story – there’s no wrong way to play! You can choose to save the universe from the forces that destroyed your home and uncover larger galactic secrets along the way, or you can forgo a hero’s journey altogether and instead colonize unexplored planets. The choice is yours!
