Epic space operas and RPGs

Chances are, when you think of science fiction adventure games, you’re picturing a grand space opera. In this sub-genre, every decision and interaction affects something down the line, like the security of a crucial colony or the outcome of a battle in the farthest reaches of space. Here’s a selection of our favorites.

Honkai: Star Rail

Honkai: Star Rail is a mobile gacha game that’s been shooting players to the stars since 2023. Embark on an expansive adventure across distant worlds, engaging in epic turn-based combat with incredible visuals as you build your team and ride the Astral Express. The goal is to help different planets recover from various disasters, with every stop presenting new challenges and fateful encounters that’ll keep you logging in day after day.

Warhammer 40,000: Tactics

Games Workshop’s epic Warhammer 40,000 series, which fans affectionately call 40k, takes place across thousands of light-years and eons of time. Sci-fi fantasy game Warhammer 40,000 Tactics immerses you in the conflict between the gritty, fanatical Space Marines and their ruthless alien enemies: the Xenos. This epic, fantastical turn-based tactics game puts you right in the center of action, encouraging you to brute-force your way through hordes of enemies to bring order to the universe.��

Strategic galaxy builders

Galaxy builders offer a huge sandbox filled with colonies to settle, boundaries to expand, and strange aliens to defeat or befriend. Many fall into the 4x strategy genre (explore, expand, exploit, exterminate), which encourages you to build a huge army and make grand decisions about how to spend resources. Below, we’ve picked out a couple of the universe’s best.

Star Trek Fleet Command

In Star Trek Fleet Command, take the helm of the USS Realta, and eventually become the commander of an advanced star base at the boundary of Federation space. Play as some of the series’ most recognizable characters, including Jean-Luc Picard and James T. Kirk. Upgrade your ships and recruit a crew of daring heroes as you fight for glory and freedom in an epic conflict between the Federation, Klingon, and Romulan empires.

Star Hunter-Infinite Lagrange

Star Hunter-Infinite Lagrange is a grand simulation and tactical extraction game. In it, you acquire and upgrade ships, leading them into battle in large-scale space combat. There are light diplomacy systems, too, allowing you to partner with factions like the militarist Ares Corps or education-focused Hermann University. There’s even a competitive multiplayer mode where you can test your strategies out against real-life opponents.

Urban sci-fi and cyberpunk

Cyberpunk games offer immersive dystopian stories, usually set on a single planet, which is often a future or alternate version of Earth. While you might still encounter spaceships or aliens, these games are usually more focused on weaving deep narratives featuring brutal megacorps and oppressive dystopian realities. Check out these two titles to get started.

Zenless Zone Zero

Zenless Zone Zero features fast-paced hack-and-slash combat against futuristic mutants and monsters. Uncover the mysteries of the “Hollows,” strange labyrinthine cities that have appeared around the world. Assemble a squad of fighters to switch between in combat and create powerful combos and chain attacks as you delve into dangerous mazes. With the help of your team, you’ll steadily uncover the truth of what brought the eerie cities to your world.

Doomsday: Last Survivors

Doomsday: Last Survivors is a near-future urban shooter and survival game set during a zombie apocalypse. Assemble a hardy team of survivors, and build your base to hold back the undead. Explore futuristic wastelands outside your base of operation to gather resources and fight enemies, using timed abilities to build barricades, traps, and other zombie-stopping defenses.

Sci-fi arcade games

Sometimes, all you want from a sci-fi game is some light futurist vibes and an experience that’s easy to pick up and play. Arcade games offer nostalgic, beginner-friendly gameplay that’s still immersive and exciting. Here are two thrilling arcade titles to get you going.

Mech Assemble

Mech Assemble combines the mech-building complexity of series like Gundam and Armored Core with the simple graphics and rogue-like gameplay of Vampire Survivors. It’s a great title both for longer play sessions and quick forays. Fine-tune your build and spend hours finding the best combination of parts and weapons, or jump in for a quick session of frenetic, screen-clearing shooting.

Galaxiga

Fans of the arcade classic Galaga will love Galaxiga. With its sleek visuals and immersive, orchestral soundtrack, the game replicates all the best parts of Galaga’s side-scrolling, ship-based combat, with a huge roster of quirky alien opponents to blow to smithereens.
